Once again you have reduced me to tears. You outline nicely the 'facts' as we knew them, but also you incorporate from Tolkien's letters what Tolkien knew Frodo's intent to be. He would have cast himself into the fire, I think, even though he claimed the Ring - rather than allow Sauron to take it from him. Nicely done - very well thought out. Aragorn is just fantastic - so Kingly. I cannot wait to see what you do with the punishment portion of the trial. | |

Ah, I missed this story...I had begun to follow it avidly on FF.net and then every time I tried to go back and catch up, or review what I read, it was (gasp) down. I love the picture of Merry, Sam and Pippin "sightseeing" (LOL) and Frodo's conversation with Eowyn. This a startling and thought provoking piece; a friend steered me toward it and I am glad she did. I shall eagerly await further updates! Author Reply: I actually responded to your review on ff.net. But now I see that I can reply directly on SoA. As I said at ff.net, I am glad that you came back. It is a great compliment to know that someone has liked my story well enough that they'd return after an absence... | |
