Oh very nice, I like the way you have woven these together. It is nice to have LOTR stories from another perspective, most people seem to write about the main characters, not many write about the Spear Carriers! Lynda

Thanks for your review, it's the first one I've had on this site, all shiny and new. ;-)

Wow, this is very good writing. The two I’ve so far read each had its own tone, each showed the despair of the speaker flawlessly, each ended in a way satisfying. The first of the Rohan was brilliant with the boot theme… the mother’s voice held a sort of shock, pride of her son, disbelief. The second I liked for the bitter happiness of the girl for her sister and at the moment when she sees her man and her sister embraces her. -Kitt : )

Thanks for the review. It's nice you've noticed the boot theme - watch out for recurring themes in the other chapters, I promise there's quite a bit to find.
