| Startide Risen 2004-01-20 ch 1, | abuseDespite the fact that I have never played Diablo and have no idea what it's about, I thoroughly enjoyed this story. It's funny, sweet, and sad, sometimes all at once. Your characterization, as always, is superb. How is it that all your characters are inherently lovable? |
| Sleight 2003-08-02 ch 1, anon. | abuseThis was an awesome story. ^_^ The fact that I've yet to play Diablo, and I've read and understood this story is telling a lot. I loved some of the humor in it, and I find that you wrote Galen and Anubis' part really well. I liked the fact that even as they grew much older, they still continued to have their brotherly fights. I also admire the fact that you wrote this in a first-point of view, all the while making the reader feel as though they really *are* the person, rather than looking through the mind of someone else. You can write very well with emotions as well. I really did feel as though I were in this person's point of view, and that I *had* been waiting several years on a dock with a stomach of uneasy panic. When Anubis had tried to resurrect his mother, I wasn't sure how it would have turned out, and when I had read it, the first thing that came to mind was 'That was an Anubis move.' It sounded like something a younger brother would do, and when Galen had entered the scene, it really worked out when I tried picturing it in my mind. But I thoroughly I enjoyed the humor in this too. Anubis and Galen are quite the pair, and one of the most interesting young brother-older brother relationships that I've read. Actually, I haven't sen many stories with a younger brother-older brother relationship, and it's a really fresh feeling to be reading something I had had yet to read. My favourite moment was: "You'll die," Anubis hissed at him, eyes narrowed suddenly. "If I do," Galen said darkly, "don't you dare try and resurrect me." That part hit gold, and I was laughing for ages. I love the way you write, and the fact that you were able to keep Galen serious yet humurous at the same time is amazing me. I love the two of them -quite the pair. At the end of this story, I nearly cried. That ending sentence 'My brothers had come home.' It had really hit a heart nerve. A hollow feeling of love, because who you loved was there, but out of your reach. This story was a really fresh idea, and I hope that if you continue to making it into a longer story, it'll work out well. I'd be looking forward to it, and after reading this, I have the sudden urge to go try and play Diablo. At the moment, I have yet to read other stories as wonderful as this and Legend of Zelda: The Return. They're my favourites of your works, though I was wondeirng where your original stories went. I haven't been on fictionpress yet, so I'll go see if it's over there. ^^; Silly me. I don't usually have much time on the computer, and I find that reading your stories are always worth it. They're long and very entertaining, and let the reader continously enjoy and feel as though they were in the story itself. I hope you continue writing, and that one day you may become a famous author. You have the skill, and I hope to see a book published of yours on the shelf one day. I'm sure you're characters would love a litenary life, now wouldn't they? Now only if people were allowed to publish fanfictions. Hm... the world would be a better place. Then again... I'm actually serious, but I'd really love to see a work of yours published. I hope it happens soon. I'm sorry if my review was overly too long or anything short of something. There is so much more I want to say, but I have very little time left on the computer. I'll be waiting for more, Sleight |
| Qualinesti 2003-07-06 ch 1, | abuseHot DAMN! My God...this story kicks **. I mean REALLY kicks **. I demand to know when you write more, especially if it concerns Anubis. (checks favorite author's box) |
| The Demon Seta 2003-07-03 ch 1, anon. | abuseWow. (This sums up a five page rant about how good your story is) Another great story, as usual. I really loved the end, where the character says 'but I didn't hear him. My brothers had come home.' That was really cool. Awe-inspiring. A bit depressing, too, but good. I love how this story is written in first person, but weaves a flow that makes you feel it is in third person too. Overall, it was a wonderful story. A ten out of ten. |
| H7 2003-06-23 ch 1, | abuseWow, great. *claps loudly* Great job, especailly how you gave the third brother a kind of hopeless, unable to help feeling about him. Really interesting. |
| Norvegica 2003-04-08 ch 1, | abuseVery well done. There is a lyricism and rhythm with the way the story was told. It gives the feeling that one was really watching the childhood development of a Necromancer and a Paladin. The interactions are very human and humorous. The ending is nicely tragic. |
| HotShot14 2003-01-30 ch 1, | abuse*Sobs wildly* Waaaaaaaaa! *Wipes tear away* What a beautiful story! *Blows nose* Those two are heroes! Keep up the good work! *Resumes crying* |
| Talon 2003-01-18 ch 1, anon. | abuseFirstoff, bravo on one of the best stories I've seen for a while. =) The fic... ...is clearly told in first person, but somehow it gives the reader a seperated, omnipresent feeling usually only possible in a third person perspective. ...flows smoothly from act to act, incorporating elements from each. ...starts strong and ends strong. ...has a general enough plot, but written in a new and fresh way. Any one is difficult to do, but having all of them in one story speaks quite a bit about the skill of the author. =) Beautifully executed. |
| RedLady 2003-01-12 ch 1, | abuseThat was pretty good! The only thing is that the two brothers didn't seem to pay much attention to the narrator of the story. I'm not sure if it's a she or a he... I like the explanations though. I don't think I've seen much about Kurast being written about in Diablo fanfiction. ^_^ |
| Cheeseinacan 2003-01-12 ch 1, | abuseThat was REALLY good. You have a nice writting style and by the end I had a good feel for what the characters are like--I hope this is only your first chapter and not your last =) |
