Yes, I am a very fast reader! I'm a librarian by trade and I tend to read things very quickly to find out what happens and then later go back and re-read a really good story to savor it. Of course, it's the middle of the night here where I live and I've been reading and writing and all kinds of stuff, but I had to leave another review before I go back to the story - I'm on vacation this week and can do this! :)

Okay, I was wrong about Ridasha here, but I'm glad I was wrong. Those Easterlings are just evil, cruel people and make me shudder. I'm trying to decide if the stuff they put in the slave mark was supposed to make Aragorn obedient in some way or if will do something else and because he has a hint of elvish blood that is making it not work right. Ridasha made the comment that she hadn't seen anyone else have the pain he did so, I'm just trying to guess here... I like to try and figure things out!

I'm shocked that Aragorn just escaped again, that he would leave the men behind... I mean someone needs to do that if they are going to have a chance and I so hope he makes it, but I fear what they will do to him if he is re-captured! :( I'm nervous about Dumarin and if he is going to do something to betray them... hopefully not and he's just having thoughts that anyone in that kind of situation might have. Poor Hilberon just needs to hold out for awhile longer I think, I hope.

I'm so glad that Eomer has hope and a possible rescue on the way, though I'm sad for Thor. I really thought he was going to die there and I like him a lot. It takes a lot of courage to do what he has done. I'm admiring Eomer more and more too, it would be hard to stand up like he is and not retaliate against the people that have killed yours for hundreds of years. I hope it doesn't work against here... that's what I'm afraid of.

Well, I'm off to read some more!

Author Reply: Oh, well, Radbooks, that sounds like fun! A week of vacation and doing all the stuff you like to do! So I'm glad you gave the story a chance.
Ha, yes, Ridasha's not a baddie, that would be too much, wouldn't it? But there are still some twists ahead you might not guess right now... I hope! But I like the way you think!
Yes, people - even brave ones - react differently to the reality they are faced with. Some hold on and some just break and collapse and want it all to end, no matter the consequences. Hilberon needs are courage he can muster, being the youngest and most inexperienced soldier in the line.
