Great first two chapters, Radbooks. I'm wondering though - the second chapter says 'Chapter 6' on it???? Did I miss something. Hope vacation is good and that you get more ideas for this delightful tale. I happen to be a Theodred fan and am enjoying this! Author Reply: Thanks for reviewing, I'm glad that you enjoyed it! The 'Chapter 6' was an error on my part and it has been corrected. I originally was going to keep this as part of the first story and it would have been the 6th chapter. Thanks for pointing that out. I had a wonderful vacation but it's nice to be home again. I'll be posting the next chapter on Monday or Tuesday. There should be 5 chapters in all and 4 of them are finished now. Lots and lots of Theodred coming up for you. :) I never planned on writing a story featuring Theodred, but he's really growing on me. | |

Engaging picture of Eowyn and Renward together, Radbooks. You do a terrific job of bringing out their personalities, and Eomer's and those of the other two boys too. Author Reply: Thanks for reviewing, Daw, and for your kind words. | |

You do excel in description Radbooks. I think that the children are doing very well considering. And yes, I, at least, love details like the meaning of names. Author Reply: Thanks for your kind words, harrowcat. I'm glad that Eomer and Eowyn have each other, that will help them get through for now. Sometimes it takes a while for everything to sort of all sink in and become 'real' to people. | |

This is a great start to the story. I can't wait to see what happens on his day out with the children. Now why do I think it won't quite be as easy as he thinks? ;) I did like his memories of sneaking out when he was younger, too. Author Reply: Thanks, Misty! You might be right about that day out with the children. *grin* I'm glad you liked the memories that Theodred had there... many of us have those sorts of things. :) | |

Nice start, Radbooks. I really like what you're doing with Theodred. He's scarcely present in canon and not much in fanfic, so there's wonderful possibilities there. Author Reply: Thanks, Daw. I'm enjoying getting to 'know' Theodred myself. :) I never thought to write about him and the Rohirrim at all, I've always been drawn to Aragorn and the Rangers. But I find that it's the children that I really enjoy writing and now Theodred is starting to take over, which is okay with me! | |

Looking after children makes you realise many things about yourself and your own childhood as Theodred is finding out! Glad he is beginning to appreciate how the other occupants of his home help to raise him. Author Reply: Thanks for reviewing! You're so right, there are so many things about your childhood you take for granted and I think that in Theodred's case he would have been surrounded by people that really cared for him... at least in 'my world' they did! :) | |

Oh, a nice beginning here. And now Theodred is finding reason to take an interest. Excellent. Looking to seeing this play out. Author Reply: Thanks for reviewing, Larner! Yes, Theodred is finding himself drawn to the children and this little trip will help their relationship along. :) Oh, thanks for the nomination for "Life in the King's House" and for the little nudge! Now that summer is here I do hope to work on it. This story is almost written and then I'll turn to that one. | |
