The Ranger and the Eagles  by Cairistiona 16 Review(s)

I'm so glad to see this excellent tale up at last. Stories featuring the friendship of Gandalf and Aragorn are rare enough, stories featuring Aragorn and, err, you-know-who [not wanting to give the plot away here!] are even rarer, making this adventure a real treat. It is the attention to the little details though which really brings this opening chapter alive. Very well done.

Author Reply: Thank you! And oh, you are so right in that stories of "you-know-who" are practically non-existent. He's not listed on most character lists, poor fellow. But he'll get his moment in the sun, in later chapters. *g* And I wonder if anyone reading this review will figure out who we're talking about! LOL

Thank you for the review, and for your help!

I have been waiting for this story eagerly, and I'm glad to see it! I'm loving it since the summary - hurt/comfort between Aragorn and Gandalf is something I always like to read, and from you it means a promise of a great story. I especially liked the insight into the character of Gandalf/Olórin. And the foreboding just had to be true, didn't it? Oh Elbereth, hear me, send the next chapter soon!

Author Reply: Thank you, Mirach! Hopefully Elbereth will hear and send you another chapter on Monday. *g* Glad you liked the start to this... Gandalf-Aragorn h/c is a bit of a rare bird but it's very fun to explore! I hope the rest of the story holds up to your expectations. :) Thanks again for the review.

What a nice beginning! Well, probably not for Aragorn and Gandalf, but for the rest of us. *g* It seems Gandalf's worries were only too well-founded. I wonder if Aragorn got indeed trapped in that avalanche. *shudders* This story is sure off to a great start! :D

Author Reply: Thank you! Glad you enjoyed this. Yes, not so great a start for either of our heroes, is it! I'll be posting the next chapter on Monday, most likely. Thanks for the review!

Ah, a new story from you! YES! At last! I was so unhappy to pass X-mas without any new Dúnedain stories from anyone, so this definitely comes at the right time!
I can't wait for the next chapter and I hope the story will be very long! :) I am the greedy type!

Author Reply: Thank you, md! I like greedy types. *g*

I'm glad my timing was right for you! I've been working on this story for quite a while and wondered if it'd ever be ready for publication so I'm very glad to finally start posting. I'll post a couple chapters a week, most likely. It's 10 chapters long, plus an epilogue. So plenty more tale ahead.

Thanks for the review!

*bounce bounce* We all know how happy Lilybaggins will be when she reads this! I'm hoping for (of course) a great deal of "c" to go with the "h". What a wonderful beginning.

Author Reply: Yes, there will be lots and lots of cccccccc to go with the h. *g* I'm glad you liked how it started! Thanks for the review! :)
