| Madeleine, I have greatly enjoyed your series with Eomer and Lothíriel. Please finish the last section "Unexpected". I have laughed, cried and laughed and cried (at the same time). You draw word pictures so well that your readers can actually see them. Your characters are completely three-dimensional and totally "human", "elf", "dwarf" and especially "hobbit". It would be a shame to not finish this grouping. I plan on going on the the next story, even though I wish I know just what you had in mind for the central characters. I can just picture such an argument with Lothiriel saying...."Eomer, I forgot to tell you something." Thank you for an enjoyable read. Dinah | |

| Hmm . . . where can I sign up to take Eomer's course in basic Rohirric? I LOVE his teaching methods. A terrific story! Probably the best characterization of Eomer and Lothiriel I have read yet. Thanks so much! When do we get the next chapter? | |

| I do so enjoy this story of yours. I have just recently gotten introduced to Eomer/Lothiriel fanfic by a friend of mine. My friend got me hooked on this, so since my friend introduced me to Eomer/Lothiriel I have been surfing the net for good stories and your long series about their relationship seems so...so...how should I say it? Unique and polished? ...Professional? Well, overall I have read your stories about Eomer/Lothiriel but just decided to put one single review to cover them all here. Sorry, if you like to have MANY reviews. I am just feeling a bit lazy... These stories of yours are so intriguing and complicated which makes it even better. Lothiriel, is so intelligent and sophisticated on how you portray her and I like that very much instead of a simple-minded yet beautiful queen of Rohan. Another is that she is very strong-willed, so she will fight for what she believes in. Eomer is very lucky and fortunate to have someone like her that is in love with him... Will you PLEASE UPDATE SOON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think that all the fans of your writing can agree with me. Can't we?? Update!!! Update!!! Hooray!!!! | |

| I have to say I side with Lothiriel on this one. Eomer is very irritating! Of course, he's also very gorgeous, but that doesn't change the fact that he insults her by his doubts. | |

| I have finally had the opportunity to catch up on this continuation of your Lothíriel and Éomer stories, after being highly entertained by your entries in the MEFA's. (And congrats on the Awards, btw!) Once again, you have marvelous and lovable characterizations, and your witty lines and turns of phrase are laugh-out-loud funny. I care very much about the developments for each one of your individual players. (Um, OK. Not so much about Éofor and Ærwin - they just need to be smacked around. A lot.) Your bedroom scenes with Éomer and Lothíriel are steamy without being lewd, romantic without being syrupy. Their struggles with learning to live with one another as husband and wife are apt, especially considering how little they still know of one another and Lothíriel's sheltered and single-minded view of the world. Absolutely love your many supporting characters - Aragorn, Imrahil and sons, Elfhelm and his family, etc. While I sympathize with Imrahil's children's exasperation at their father's manipulation of their lives, I suspect it grew from Imrahil long ago realizing that his offspring were all much too stubborn to know what was actually good for them. The additional revelation of his reasoning behind Lothíriel's match with Éomer really reconciled me to some of his actions in previous stories. I admit, Gimli can sometimes seem a bit too close to the Gimli of the movies (whom I really disliked, personally), but you write him very humorously nonetheless. I loved the incorporation of Anglo-Saxon terms, which I think you are handling very well - a nice blend with English, not confusing, but lending an authentic (and educational) touch. I really enjoyed the dance music links. Thank you for continuing your series, as this is yet another amusing, charming and engaging tale! | |

| What a wonderful relationship you have written between Lothiriel and Eomer. I thoroughly enjoyed your story of these two, and all the other characters surrounding them. Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us. Fabulous! | |

| I just finished reading all the stories in this series. I'm glad I found it. Your characters are so very rich. I love the closeness between Eomer and Aragorn, and it's wonderful to see the way they tease each other. I also think your Eomer more closely matches the character we see in the books. Lothiriel is a great character - I think you managed to capture her quite well. She is still young, so shows some of her immaturity while at the same time her experiences as a healer and a princess make her more mature than others her age might be (such as Elfhelm's daughter). I love Amrothos as much as Lothiriel and can't stand him as much as Eomer. He's as grating and annoying as he is lovable and entertaining. I hope there's more to come! | |

| I have just found this series and have spent the last three days pleasurably enthralled by the ongoing saga of Lothíriel and Éomer. This is, without doubt, THE best Éomer/Lothiriel fic in existence. I loved your writing style and your characters. Amrothos and Erchirion have grown on me quite a bit and the wittiness of your writing has had me in gales of laughter. Literally. I don't even want to think of what I looked like to the other people in the computer labs! I am IMPLORING you to update soon! I have come to the end of what is posted with a wail and as I am now addicted, rather desperately need another fix. | |
