| First of all, Frecern is a jerk. If nothing else, I hope Legolas glares a hole through him. I loved the exchange between Aragorn and Arwen. They are just like any old, happily married couple who are comfortable together. Who wouldn't like to sit back and watch Aragorn undress? In every chapter it seems I find a favorite sentence or phrase, and this time it is this one: "Gleowyn managed a watery twitch of her lips and accepted the cloth gratefully. If nothing else it gave her something to hide behind." It's just such a true observation. Gleowyn is so overwrought and embarrased as well. She'd probably like to hide under a rock. I really liked the stick growing from Gimli's chest as an alternative to the usual, "suddenly an arrow flew in out if the dark and hit X in the chest". I was with Gleowyn, not getting it until the second arrow came. And it was a nice little touch to include that although he didn't get enuogh of the paralytic poison to kill him outright, he could have stopped breathing before it began to wear off. It was fighting as he did that saved him. I love the way he just keeps on plugging on. ~TF Author Reply: Ah Frecern, I almost miss the big lunk, he is my best baddy by far so far. Thanks for your appreciation of my efforts to avoid cliche - and that's my Gimli, keeps going and going and going ... Thanks for the kind words, as ever they are treasured and make my day. Rose | |

| Just thought I'd let you know I was reading and enjoying. ^^ Your OCs are wonderful, and the quick-moving plot has me craving more. Keep up the awesome work! Author Reply: Glad to have you along for the ride, it's a bit long, Adagio has two sequels the longer one is not finished yet but I am working on it! Thanks for the review. Rose | |

| You appear to be my favourite type of writer - one who updates regularly and quickly! I like the way Legolas and Aragorn steadfastly defend Gimli - I certainly wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of Legolas's glare. Things are becoming clearer now, and we know where Gimli went but not what happened to him or Gleowyn, or *why* the Woses are acting like this. BTW, you can respond to a review directly on this site. Log in, look at your reviews then, and you will see 'author reply' at the bottom of each. I speak as one who took two or three weeks to realise that! Jay Author Reply: Well this is a bit quicker than cutting and pasting in my mail reader, duh. I never thought to actually read from the page, and I found a review or two the bot had missed! Thanks for both your continuing support and your continuing great writing. Rose | |
