 Ky Hakubi 2007-08-27 . chapter 1The Dragon reborn as a female... Well, at least there won't be any minor annoyances like the taint on saiden and the ensuing madness.
As for Ruby being a reincarnated Ranma, and the awakening of abilities... I wonder how the Forsaken would deal with Anything Goes coupled with the One Power. |
 pirripb 2007-05-09 . chapter 2 Pretty interesting. Good writing too.
You should take out the Author's Note in the middle of your story though. It's un-needed and distracting:
(A/N Ruby will have near wolf Perrin senses. She won't smell emotions but later she will "feel" them. Especially channlers.) |
 skywiseskychan 2007-01-09 . chapter 25This is terribly fun I hope to read more about Matt and Ruby soon. |
 skywiseskychan 2007-01-05 . chapter 7I like what I have read so far. I actually want to see Ruby with Matt. I think that would be grand but I can only hope you decided to go that route ahead. I'll keep going and probably let you know more later. |
 asis 2006-10-26 . chapter 23 if you continue this please kill off the Black Ajah Aes Sedai who uses Compel on one of the northern queens before she does so, as it's one of the scenes i hate the most. |
 Siriel the treelady 2006-06-26 . chapter 1Hey, this is that girl from school. You know, the one with long dark hair who said she liked your backpack, and who told you this morning about her boyfriend issues (you told me to slap him).
Anyway I have just read this first chapter of your WoT story, and though I have very little idea of what's going on having never read the books, I have to say this looks quite good. This Ruby chica is pretty cool, and your characterisation (especially of her) is fairly well done. You might could add a little more physical details, and explanatory/reminders for people who have not read the books in a while or who, like me, have never read them at all. Also you could use more dialogue, showing what happens instead of telling about it. (Example: instead of telling us that the group was told a story, show us the scene of them listening and the actual words used.) You have done an excellent job of editing, removing unneccessary words and eliminating any grammar or spelling mistakes. You express yourself succinctly and clearly.
Overall excellent job. Keep up the good work! |
 Davor the crazy 2006-01-24 . chapter 25 This was well written and very interesting. Is mat's ability with making the balls disappear supposed to be Mousse's Hidden Weapon skills? |
 claws 2005-12-09 . chapter 25 OMG, a complete Ranma/WoT crossover!
I am having trouble thinking of something good to say about this fic, might have something to do with the fact the I am coming down with a second cold within like four weeks--but the fact that I stayed up till about eleven o'clock last night and then spent most of today reading this should say something.
A few minor errors, bear with me, this is not a flame:
Cats hate people who channel Sadin-but I don't think that came out till,,Knife of Dreams? That was published like a year after you wrote this. Dogs act similar to those who channel Sadar.
Some of Rand's 'madness' in the first book likely came not from the taint, but from being recently opened to Sadin. --the way you wrote of Ruby's behavior I was not certain if you undersood it as such. If this behavior was inspired by the taint on Sadin then I would not be waiting for the twelth book to come out. Rand would have been dead long past.
Power Blowin', Chi Flowin', Truth Knowin' Ninjas who have the power to destroy the gravity of a situation by focusing chi, prana, ki, dweomer, quintessence, power, sadin, sadar, True Power, ultimate force, magic energy, love, mothers love, mental power, psi-points, mana, spin, blood points, rage, gnosis, quanta, etc., et all, ad-nausium to the effect of removing any dramatic tension are annoying. Espessialy when they are in 'Everybodys Friend' mode, fixing rifts between people or beating back the 'bad' people with a stick.-- Fan fiction is filled with this disease. I used to flame authors that turned character I loved into a 'Hand of the Dark' in service to the author, enforcing thier opinions//blah! Anyway, you didn't put me off to much with having Ruby use heavy ki to heal Tam,,but I do dislike easy answers. Using ki to modify the items from Shadar Logoth was anoying also. To easy. Someone who THINKS they have all the answers would be much more fun to read about. What could possibly go wrong with touching the taint of Shadar Logoth with the very essence of your being. . .
A channeler need not see a weave to maintain it. At least not an experienced channeler. Like an Aes Sedai.--I don't know how far you have read through the series, so this is not somehting that bothered me to much. Just something you might want to keep in mind if you decied to contenue. Also, in the early books Jordan is not heavy on solid facts about the Power, this is good. "The One True Power" is the most lame sounding magic I have ever read of--but Jordan builds lore and mystery around it till you're hooked.
That half-fade girl annoyed me.-- Specificly it was her telling her life story to strangers that got under my skin. I would have preffered her to be more like Ayanami- atleast on the surface or maybe a tough cookie eager to prove her hatred of the shadow.
Well now. I can clearly see that the things I disliked about this story arose from necessity of keeping a swift pace or an ignorance of the sacred writ that you cannot be held accountable for(,what with not all the books being written yet). All the same I very much enjoyed this story. You used those most filthy tools of the fanfic autor to good effect. Still..
Try to avoid easy answers that involve someone focusing some sort of power, pouring thier heart out or being Uber in any way beyond what is justified within the circumstnces.
I hope you could find both a complement for a good story and advise that you might use to improve your writing in this review.
Ah, one more thing.
PLZ CONTENUE! |
 Xzero 2005-08-01 . chapter 1Being an R.5 fanfic author I thought this might bear some interest, however, upon opening the first chapter I found something that was truly disturbing. The nature of the wheel of time series lends women a very powerful role. In society it is accepted that amazing power belongs only to women, and any man who touches this power will go mad and die.
Now, on this note, one must acknowledge that the most pagetime in the actual book series is given again to the women. Robert Jordan shows us a world where the only way to save the world is for a man whose very life is destined to save AND doom the world. A woman is no real struggle, she needn't worry about going crazy and destroying those around her. Saidar is safe. |
 deathtraps 2005-07-26 . chapter 1very good story. Totally loved it. keep up the good work. |
 Rachael 2005-07-02 . chapter 14 Hi, im reviewing you story for first time. I usally wait until the end but this is excellent writing. I hope that the story doesn't stray to far from the original copy because I can't get a hold of some of the earlier books (The Great Hunt and The Fires of Heaven). Im sure that even if I can't understand a thing I'll love your story. Please keep writing. |
 bloodmoon 2004-12-28 . chapter 25 EAUGH!WHY IS IT OVER? NO! yOU MUST START A NEW ONE! please? Sorry I havent been reveiwing lately, my computer sucks! But I read along the whole time. I love this fanfic. And, Im gonna be totally honest(?) I HATE FIALE(?) I think that she should die a horrible painful death before Perrin meets her, and that Perrin and Mirado get together. Failes a class a bitch, and doesnt deserve Perrin. Can you PLEASE kill off Faile? Plzplzplzplzplzplzplzplzplzplz? I am so looking forward to your next update! So Plz Hurry! |
 frodofreak88 2004-12-25 . chapter 25Oh no! Update! I ist desperate! Oh yes... I'm Mineldrin... hehe... if your wondering why I used that name it's cause I'm a fan of the Lord of the Rings and Wheel of Time along with several other things... And had read something that was totally prejudiced to LotR recently so was afraid... Um... I'm blabbering... MIRADO ROCKS! SHE IS COOLIEO! I LIKE HER! SHE'S AWSOME! YEAH! Update soon! Pwease! |
 abcd 2004-12-23 . chapter 23 i dont think lan would just let ruby die. in the book he would clearly die for any one of the main characters especially someone as important as rand or in this case ruby. i think in the book he would have gone back into the ways to get her. a bit disapointing that this turned out to be somewhat of a mat/ruby pairing. i thought u were goping to be making a lan/ruby pairing but i guess u dropped that idea. n/e way i think its a good story and all and despite my little disagreements i will be reading this story and anxiously awaiting updates. :) |
 frodofreak88 2004-12-20 . chapter 23Oh! I like that idea! I hate Egwene and Elaida! You should 'dispose' of both of them!
Update soon! |
