| Oh Shirebound! I truly thought that I had already read every story you had archived at SoA, but somehow, I had missed this one. When it came up on the MEFAs, I started to read and realized it was completely new to me! This story is just wonderful, so full of joy for our four lads, that the angst and h/c is just almost overwhelmed. I loved this so much; your own love for the hobbits just shines through in this one! I am off to post another review of it for MEFA! Author Reply: Thank you so much, my friend. This story was very special to me... especially in giving the hobbits a joyous encounter with the Eagles, and helping Pippin to learn new things about himself. I really appreciate your lovely comments. :D | |

| You mentioned this story in your review of my latest one and I'm so glad you did because I had never read it. So I just read it in one shot now, and it really is amazing. A lovely story all around, but I especially loved Gandalf's explanation of Pippin's dreams - when I read the books I'd always thought of the "dainty" as the Ring itself. I never thought of it being Pippin. What a fascinating idea! :) Author Reply: Thank you for reading! I like coming up with alternative or "new" ways to think about things, like what Pippin heard Sauron say through the palantir. This was a fun story to write. :) | |

| A lovely story. And this is said by one who is not the world's greatest hobbit lover! Yet, even in the camps of the elves, is your story a joy. I do appreciate particularly the loving interaction among the halflings and your evocative language. Almost you tempt me to include Pippin in a story in more than a peripheral role and that says much for, until now, only Rosie and the fair Elanor have gained admittance to my particular corner of elvendom on earth! You are an excellent writer. Author Reply: My goodness, thank you! What a compliment! I have only recently begun including Elves in my "hobbit stories", most particularly in "Sing Me Home" and the latter half of "By Chance or Purpose". Perhaps various hobbits will find their way into one of your tales, as well! Thank you so much for your lovely comments. | |
