| I have only recently discovered fanfiction. Have been avidly reading ever since. This is a great story - and such faithfully detailed characterizations. This is my first review to anyone. I loved every minute of reading but I must learn, a) not to log on during working hours and b) turn off in time to get a semi-decent amount of sleep. Keep up the brilliant work White Wolf and thanks for the 'entertainment'. Author Reply: I feel honored that you chose my story to review first. I'm sure it won't be long before you are reviewing up a stern. Thank you for your king words. I try hard to keep the characters faithful to the ones people enjoy reading about in Tolkien's books. Of course, the Legolas-Aragorn friendship is pretty much a creation of fanfiction writers, but that makes it so much fun to write about. We aren't locked into pre-written events. I hope you don't get into trouble or lose too much sleep. I love reading fanfiction and have a number of stories I'm reading right now. Thank you again. I hope you will join me for my next story, "Black Mountain". I hope to start posting it next week. | |

| i cant believe that this story is over. Its a really awesome story, with lots and lots of surprises. What will " Black Mountain" be about, or will we have to find out later? Hope to hear from you soon. -sofia Author Reply: Yes, it is over. I can't quite believe it, either. I'm so glad you liked it. I'm also glad I wasn't predictable. Awesome is a wonderful compliment. Thank you. Since you asked, I'll give you the summary for "Black Mountain". No one in the history of Middle-earth has ever returned from the mysterious Black Mountain. Now the mountain, silent for centuries, appears to be waking up, and Aragorn thinks its about time that he and Legolas go there and investigate. Elladan and Elrohir join them for the adventure. I hope that sounded interesting enough to entice you to join me, when I start posting it in another week or two. | |

| (content sigh)Loved it all,from the suspense of Aragorn carrying Legolas into Rivendell to the tear jerking letter Legolas writes to his father,the big death scene,battling Mordraug.All of it Genius,pure Eru given talent-looking forward to the next epic.Huzzah! Author Reply: A contented reader. That was my goal. I'm so glad you liked the story. You picked out a couple of my favorites: the letter to Thranduil and what I call Legolas's spirit flight (ch. 27). I was also proud of how truly evil I managed to make Mordraug. I just love a good villain, especially when he gets his just deserts. Genius? You are making me blush. Thank you. I hope to start posing "Black Mountain" in another week or two. See you then. | |

| hey i just wanna say how much i enjoyed your story it was so good one minute you think everything is back to normal and then everything goes wrong its like an emotional rollercoaster and physical tidal waves it was very dark in places but light in the end and there is good description which helps you to picture the wholes scene but i guess it also helps if you have a vivid imagination like me lol:)do another like it please!! Author Reply: I'm so glad you liked my story. I set out to write one that would take a lot of twists and turns, so I could keep my readers a bit off balance. I didn't want to be too predictable. The story, as a whole, was so dramatic, I had to add bits of humor, partly as a breather from the traumas and partly because I think the friendship between Legolas and Estel was full of humor. I'm also glad you like my writing style. I hope you will join me for my next story. I hope to start posting it in another week or two. | |

| Well it has been a long haul! But I think you grew stronger as a writer as you worked your way through it. You managed your plot nicely and kept your characters interesting. Wonderful job. Author Reply: Yes, it has been a long haul. I think we, as writers, are always trying to improve, not just from story to story but also within each story. I worked hard to keep the characters interesting enough to make the reader continue to care about how the plot affected them throughout the story. I'm happy that you think I succeeded. Such kind words coming from a writer I admire so much is both thrilling and encouraging. Thank you. | |

| Thank you. I have enjoyed this story. Now if I were Thranduil I would take Legolas home and lock him up very securely in a well-padded room for a few years! (Perhaps Elrond should do the same with 3E aka, Elladan Elrohir Estel.) I'm surprised they still have all their hair! Author Reply: You are most welcome. I'm so Glad you enjoyed the story. You and Thranduil probably have the same idea about putting Legolas some place where he will be safe. I'm also a bit surprised they all still have their hair. :o) | |
