Of Falcons and Mūmakil  by Lialathuveril 1 Review(s)

Lothy's little adventure here was most enjoyable. Loved the way how you set it up that they would be at each other's throats from the very onset (even if they have not met each other yet.) Lothy's meeting with Firefoot was a major "sign" for me and appreciate how you include intersting terms/details about handling horses, etc (even if I couldn't ride horses to save my life).

I just wish that your stories could be converted to a movie or book--I'm sure the scenes/pictures would be fabulous! But alas I'd have to make do with my imagination.

Author Reply: Hello Whitewave,
I used to ride when I was younger, but now I would probably be lucky just to stay on. Good to hear I can make it sound convincing, though! And you are of course absolutely right that Lothiriel making it past Firefoot unscathed is a sort of sign - only Eomer ignores it for the moment.

When I write my stories I do see them as a kind of movie in my mind. It's a shame they cannot converted directly, I always feel that I lose something when I write it down.
