In His Stead  by IceAngel 4 Review(s)

A fitting ending to the story. You touched on the right highlights for me to feel satisfied. If you want to tell the story of all, it will be another novel ;-).

Congratulations on finishing! This was a fun adventure story and a thought-provoking exploration of how things might have been different. I liked the relationship between Faramir and Eowyn - that was nicely handled - and I'd like to get to know your Boromir better. It was great to see another side to the character, different from the tempted, tragic hero of canon. And Sam being the one to take the Ring from Frodo's finger broke my heart.

Well done, IceAngel! (Can I hope for a sequel...?)

Author Reply: Thanks Narya!
So glad you enjoyed the story - it was quite sad only to have Boromir come in at the end, he became rather fun and it would have been nice to do some more with him.
No sequels planned at this stage :p I'm interested in doing more short post-rotk writings, and I guess there would be nothing stopping me from setting these in this AU ;)
Thanks again!

Thanks IceAngel, I really enjoyed this tale, even if it took ages to finished and I'm glad that you took time to do it. When you re started , I was a little nostalgic, it remind me of the old days, when we have so many good stories. Love the end and hopefully we will see more from you. I already read the first chapter of your new one. Keep writing!

Author Reply: Thanks Fantasia! I know exactly what you mean, I miss the old days and all the wonderful ongoing tales that were being written. I promised myself that when I finished IHS I would allow myself to indulge and go back and read some of those favourite tales again ^_^ Thanks again!

Oh dear. I truly hate to see this end. The last moments with such intrepid characters is bittersweet. I loved Boromir and Eowyn!

Why do all the good things have to end? I will now go off and weep a bit.

Thanks for sharing. I think. *g*

Author Reply: Thanks so much for all your support throughout these later written chapters, has made coming back to writing a joy. I'm sad to see it end - although very happy too! Would have liked to indulge in a little more Boromir Eowyn here as they turned out to be very fun ^_^ Happy reading in the future! :)
