The Rings of Evendim  by shirebound 22 Review(s)

*SQUEES*

I was so excited to see this today! I remember you mentioning on LJ that this was a sequel to "Vault," so I re-read that one this past week and thoroughly enjoyed it again.

I had no idea this was going to be an AU of your AU, with Frodo staying in Middle-earth---I think that's brilliant. I really adore stories in which Frodo is healed and happy after the Quest, and it's going to be very interesting to read a Q-verse story with Estel as the king!

This was a wonderful chapter. The hobbit party's welcome was just lovely... and the Frodo and Aragorn embrace was perfect. Looking so forward to more!

Author Reply: Thank you so much, Lily. I truly had no idea there was another "Q" story wanting to be told! A healed-and-happy Frodo in Aragorn's arms... what could be sweeter? I can't wait to get started on the next chapter.

*hugs you a lot*

Ohhhhh (satisfied sigh)!

So much love in this chapter, and all the little details that are a delight to read. I'm glad that you and your mom-beta are back at writing. I've missed your tales.

Lovely!

Author Reply: Awwww, thank you. I'm glad we're back too. I still need to be careful with my tendinitis, but when a hobbity story demands to be told... it's a pleasure to obey!

Yay for more 'Quarantined' verse! This is a lovely and intriguing start to your new tale! I did sigh a little at the mention of Scamp, though. But she's there in spirit, I know.

Author Reply: She certainly is, and there might be something coming up in a later chapter to turn the sighs to happy ones...

Thank you so much for reading. *beams*

Lovely--all the affection! I love the description of the trees and the idea that there are trees and plants from Numenor here, different from all of Middle Earth. Now I want to see them. (-:

Author Reply: What a joy to read (and write) stories that take us to Middle-earth whenever we need to visit. How we would both enjoy walking through these trees. What a joy to start a new, gentle hobbity adventure. Thank you for coming along!

Ooo! Very nice, it is always so much fun to revist the Quarantined Verse.

I will have to go back and reread 'Vault.

Keep it coming.

Huggs and Scrits,
Lynda

Author Reply: Thanks, Lynda, and I appreciated your comments on the 'sneak peek'. I hope you like how the chapter evolved.

The Blue Mountains, the home of his northern kindred and probably where he was born, unless he was born amongst Dain's folk in the Iron Hills east of the Misty Mountains.

Love the greeting, and fitting that Frodo and he should embrace first! As for Pippin's greeting--so appropriate and proper!

Author Reply: I'm so glad you enjoyed the greetings.

Oh my, I should have researched where Gimli was born! I'm grateful you brought that up; I just made a few corrections in that regard in chapter 1.

Oh, goody! Another Quarantine story. I am so looking forward to reading more of this, shirebound. Í'm sure you have many surprises in store for your readers. The Quarantine stories are my favoritest of all your stories. *grin*

Author Reply: Thank you, Fiondil! What a nice thing to say. I'm rather partial to this "Q"-verse as well. *beams* I anticipate a gentle story, but definitely containing a few fun surprises.
