 Marcus S. Lazarus 2009-02-24 . chapter 21Hoo boy...
Now THAT was interesting.
True, I wish you’d done a few more stories set around Katrin growing up- maybe a few episode rewrites, for example; it might have been interesting to see her reaction to Rodney manifesting his mental abilities after exposure to the DNA Requencer in “The Tao of Rodney”, for example-, but at least you still have her at an age where she’s fundamentally childish here rather than jump straight to her being an adult, which leaves us with a very interesting view on Atlantis as a result.
The plot you developed for this story was just as interesting as your last one was; the concept of the Lantor in particular was a rather intriguing one, creating an intriguing Ancient-based idea that the Wraith could relatively easily exploit in the present.
And as for your use of Michael...
GOD, that man’s a bastard; you can JUST about understand his need to protect himself from his once-fellow Wraith- as well as his desire for revenge on the Atlantis expedition for ‘creating’ him in the first place-, but when he starts going after innocent people like Katrin just to satisfy his own desires, he goes so far over the line that (To partly quote Joey Tribbianni) “The line is a DOT to him!”
He might go on about how he does what he does simply to survive, but if he just wanted to live he could hide out on a planet somewhere and bury the Stargate; what he is AFTER is galactic domination, and no fine words about having been ‘forced’ into this position will change that fact.
Plus, of course, your explanation for how Michael was blocking Atlantis’s Stargate- as well as how they managed to ‘override’ it in order to allow them to infiltrate his base- was very well thought-out; congratulations are DEFINITELY in order in that regard.
And as for the conclusion...
Sucks that the IOA got what they wanted in the end, but at least Elizabeth gets to remain in the city and they put someone decent in charge; no matter how Woolsey’s changed, Daniel is a MUCH better choice of leader than he is.
Keep up the good work!
(I’d have preferred it with a few elements of Sam/Daniel in the plot, but that’s just personal preference rather than anything else; you still had them both on Atlantis, which is the main thing in the end). |
 Jenwryn 2007-10-04 . chapter 21Oh, goodie, goodie, goodie! Happy ending! See, there is something to be said for not having to wait for the chapters to come up, though I admit, I do prefer a regular fix of FF rather than all in one gulp, but I just couldn't help myself and read it all today. Besides, it's a nice change from the real world!! I really loved how you worked to this ending. I like that Daniel is coming to run the city, I always adored him and I think it would be fascinating to see him in control of Atlantis on a long-term basis. I loved your plot, hands down it was great. And of course, I just loved the ending! I think you write John and Elizabeth so well and so plausibly. Thanks for sharing!! |
 Jenwryn 2007-10-04 . chapter 16The image, of Elizabeth, no longer Elizabeth, going to feed on Katrin... |
 Jenwryn 2007-10-04 . chapter 14Okay, so I can't resist the odd comment now and then and this was one of them - not Rodney! You know I've got a soft spot there...! |
 Jenwryn 2007-10-04 . chapter 13Oh good lord! Elizabeth...! |
 Jenwryn 2007-10-04 . chapter 10Well, this is me back again... and SenseOfTime, I'm glad there's already an ending to this story because at the moment...! Michael and John are marvellous, I mean, not themselves, but how you've written them. I don't know if I'll review every chapter, I just want to read it through and see how it ends! |
 saphiretwin369 2007-09-23 . chapter 21Wow! I absolutely love your story! The ending was great. |
 Stargatecrazy 2007-09-12 . chapter 21I absolutely LOVED this!! I read To Save a Child and it was one of my fave Sparky SGA fics! Then I read this and I love it 500 times more than To Save a Child! That has to mean something! lol!
And the scene where John and Elizabeth told each other that they loved each other was ADORABLE! *grin*
I love your stories!!

 Judy99 2007-09-10 . chapter 21 Just yesterday I´ve finished your first fic ´To save a child´ and I can safely say it´s one of the best John/Elizabeth fics I´ve ever read...and I read a lot;-D So right now, I´m really looking forward to this sequel and I´m very interested in what the plot will be. So again, really great work with the first part and I hope I´m gonna enjoy this one as well. ;-) Judy99 x |
 thebloodrose 2007-08-25 . chapter 21That was such a sweet ending, I loved Katrin's reaction. Please write some more Liz/John stories! |
 LiseDevi 2007-08-25 . chapter 21Aww! That was such a perfect ending. Very sweet and I loved Trin's reaction.
Can't help but get the feeling that there is the possibility there of another sequel... not to be annoying or anything ;)
Can't wait to read whatever else you post. |
 Dena 2007-08-24 . chapter 21 So euhm ... when's the wedding-fic coming out? or maybe them giving Katrine a little sister or brother?
You know just tossing you some plotbunnies, hoping they will hop around for a while, make you complete bonkers and miserable so that in a few months you'll give into the little critters and give your fans the sequel of the sequel. You know, no presure :)
Absolutely love your work! and trust me when I say you have a gift (I read more fanfic then should be legally allowed), so use it!

 Sunny2006 2007-08-23 . chapter 21That was a wonderful ending...just enough fluff to make it perfect! Nicely done...I can't wait for another story from you! |
 AtlantisGate 2007-08-23 . chapter 21This was a great story. I'm sad to see it end, but it was the perfect ending. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to see the next one...there is another one coming, right? ;) |
 Lady Lemons 2007-08-23 . chapter 21aw it's over already? wow, the ending was completely perfect, hm so are you totally done? or will there be another in this series? Hopefully we might get to see this wedding thing play out, not that i am hinting at a continuation or anything. Well, anyway, fabulous job and congrats on finishing a splendid fic!
lemons and wraith oh my! |
