Pippin the hero! So glad to see him in action.

Author Reply: I tried to give all four hobbits somewhat "equal billing" in this story.

I just read the first 5 chapters... wow! I'm loving the AU of it all... you are simply amazing shirebound. I like how you show how Pip needs to prove himself, and how practical Merry can be.
I can't wait to read the rest of it. And you have so much more for me to read... that's the best part! :D

Author Reply: Thank you so much, Dayna. I was just on fire after finishing "Quarantined", and had so many ideas for this sequel. It's the longest story I've written, and it just kept unfolding and surprising me. I'm so happy you're enjoying it.

Oh, this is very good--I find swamp vapors quite convincing! I love that it is Pip who rescues Frodo. Funny, though that you said you only made up "swamp malaise" because I really thought you were simply using that as a Middle-earth word for malaria.
