The Green Knight  by Le Rouret 9 Review(s)
fliewatuetReviewed Chapter: 28 on 3/29/2004
Just a quick note to let you that I am neither dead nor have abandoned your story. I am just buried up to the neck in RL-issues. Hopefully, I will emerge from that pile of work sometime within the next week (especially as I have some serious catching up to do on reading The Green Knight).

BTW, fliewatuet is neither elvish nor Native American, but one of the main "characters" in a german, early seventies TV series for kids (Robby, Tobby und das Fliewatüt). The Fliewatuet is actually a helicopter-car-ship-hybrid something. But I have always loved the name:)

Oh, it's so refreshing to read a nice Thranduil, with a living Queen! So many stories feature evil!Thranduil, terror of Legolas's life after the Queen died in childbirth.

This story's progressing fabulously since I left my last review months ago. Wonderful stuff.

You are probably getting tired of hearing this, but I am REALLY enjoying this story!! I think I'm running out of ways to tell you how good and unique this story is, but I'll see if I can come up with some new ways to convey that, since I think I'll be telling you this until the end of this story!

I'm also beginning to realize how difficult a story this must be to write, so that definitely "ups" my appreciation level every time I read a new chapter and I'm hit again with the difficult and unique language (which while I know must be difficult to write, is a true pleasure to read!), the terminology, and even the involved plot! To put it succinctly, I am RIVETED and eagerly anticipate each new chapter.

Thanks so much for a wonderful, wonderful read, and rest assured, I've told everyone I know that they absolutely HAVE TO read this story!!

Well, I've been faithfully following this fine work of fiction you have graced us with and (finally) decided to review.

This is a wonderful story! The descriptions are so vivid and I absolutely love your writing style. I first found your story by looking for Thranduil fics and while the wait for his appearance was long it was a very enjoyable wait. Brandy is one of the most lovable OCs I've come across. He's absolutely adorable! I also like your characterization of the canon characters.

I am very much looking forward to the next chapter of your fic. Cheers! ^_^

AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! *tackle glomps Thrandy* FINALLY!!!!!


*blissful sigh*


Your visuals are stunning Le Rouret!! I could picture Thranduil and his wife, decked out in battle armor and ready for a fight, perfectly!


*drools*


Another for the 'Anti Evil Thrandiul' team!!!

Setting the stage, and oh I am looking forward to the battle to come. Things are happening fast now, and it looks like the real lion is nearly revealed. And I knew that Belecthor didn't do it. Now I wonder if Legolas' mother is Sindar or Silvan? Rather an unusual gift to have for either race -- seems more the thing that Tolkien kept for the Noldor. Durn Noldor. I like the Sindar better anyway.

Wonderful bit at the end, when Thranduil says that he believes that Legolas will rule as well as he does. Heh, what a lovely antidote to all those Evil!Thranduil fics. Very welcome.

Now on to battle!

Again, very nice. But my absolute favorite line would have to be that which so masterfully shows a brighter side of Thranduil's many-faceted personality, which, of his manifold qualities, is oft overlooked in many lesser portrayals. :)

"But he is become so formal!" exclaimed Thranduil, looking at Bandobras. "Legolas, you have ruined him; where is the Hobbit-child who scrambled upon our laps and made off with our scepters? All I see here is an esquire full-grown."

Hahaha!

(*looks down*) Hey-ya, Amaniel. ;)

I am very pleased with the way you portrayed the Elven King. You did him the justice he deserved! Thank you for your wonderful story. I am looking forward to the rest of it.

nice one! ive been reading this for ages and so far it hasn't disappointed at all :) all your descriptions of things and the different relationships make this a very real and absorbing read, and it sounds very plausible too. like what you've done with Bandobras, he's so cute! ;) keep it coming!
