I love the thought of Aragorn being with Eomer. And Pip staying behind to watch over Eowyn. Nice touch.

This is an awe inspiring AU. I love the way you have taken the eight of the Fellowship and added Faramir. What a change just one person can wreak on a situation! The characters are very believable and you have really touched the heart of a lot of what went on in the walker's heads - Aragorn's doubt of his ability as king, Legolas' belief in the trustworthness of man, the hobbits need to protect Frodo but also their worry that they will not be enough. A small platoon beseiged by the loss of their commander in chief, evil orcs and goblins, spine chilling nazguls and yet building tentative relationships and support among themselves. Yes, I know where the book and movie takes the story, but I can't wait until you update again and continue your own story. Please do say you will finish this!

Author Reply: Thanks so much
I hereby swear that I will finish this story, it was the lack of planning that is impeding my writing, but I'm gradually forming a structure now.

Excellent. 'Tis difficult to sustain a reader's interest over forty chapters, but you have done so!

Just one suggestion:

reins are the little strips of leather used to guide the horse.

reign is the period of time a king or queen governs.

Author Reply: Thanks for the suggestion, my spelling is terrible and I couldn't wait for my beta reader - but I'll repost the good version once she replies
Thanks :D

It's wonderful to have new chapters! I feared you never would update. Keep up the good work!

I will have to reread the whole story again when I have time.

Author Reply: I know, it took me soo long!
I'm sorry, and I'm glad you don't mind the thought of reading it again, that's very encouraging :D
