Thain  by Lindelea 3 Review(s)
ConnieReviewed Chapter: 3 on 7/9/2004
I'm still playing chatch-up on all the reading I missed.

I like the changes to chapter one.

I'm curious to see how the history chapters and the more current story weave together. I know there's going to be a lot of connection. You don't write anything without a purpose.

Connie.

Author Reply: Thanks for reviewing. Finally got the next "Bucca" chapter hammered out, complete with computer crash just after completing it, and some careful reconstruction. Hope it suits.

Poor Bucca, left without his twin, supporting all the rest of his family. I love the parts that follow on from Shire: the Beginnings. It's always hard on those who are left behind in the aftermath of war.



Author Reply: I can only imagine what it must be like for Bucca, having known twins but not being one myself. It is fun to weave bits of "Shire" into this story.

Thanks!

Poor Bucca, Primrose and little ones. Tokka is dead and they don't yet know it. Interesting that Bucca's father is known as 'the Thorn'. I'm curious to see how that morphs into the Thain. I'm loving the echoes of 'Shire' in this story.

Author Reply: Thanks for reviewing.

Am hoping it does not stretch the limits of credulity to put forth somehow that "Thain" is a plural sort of form of "Thorn". Now how to work it into the text...
