I'm impressed. This is the first of your Voyagers stories I have read. Over the next two weeks or so I am going to read all that I can find. It works even better for me to read this series right now after having watched all 20 episodes of the 80's series just a few days ago, so all is fresh in my mind.

You are a very good writer. You mix action, adventure, angst, a bit of humor and romance with real life emotions and stick to the original series premise with gusto. At least in this the first of your stories I have read.

I'm going to hold out a bit before I read your prisoner of time series as the third is not yet finished and I hate to hang by my short hairs. -lol-

Maybe I can inspire you to find an absent muze and your whip. But I will read all that are finished, eventually. I do seem to have a lot of new reading now as I was getting a bit HP overloaded anyway.

This was a really great story. **sniff** This Author is assume.

3 Cheers for Voyager Lilly!! She sounds like a great foil/love interest for Bogg, I look forward to reading the next story another time.

I know I should give you an in depth review of what I thought of your story but I'm too tired. I think I'll just sit back with my cup of tea and add you to my favorite author's list.

Lovely! Nice "crossover" of the Cover-Up theme song, too, at the end! I like how them breaking the bridge helped save Pizzaro and the others. As for this line: "[Bogg] was hers, she decided on a whim, but she knew it wasn't fair to make claims." Ah, Lilly, I'm right there with you :-)

Thanks for another good read!

Wow--this chapter was especially powerful. I especially liked this great curtain line, "She took a deep breath, trying not to give way to tears. She had to find this man and get it back, but right now she was a helpless stowaway on a train headed for complete destruction." What a horrible thing to have happened (the avalanche), and yet you captured the horror of it really, really well. The near-death experience, the last-minute omni out to safety... just wow!

Ooh, this is a lot of fun so far. I believe I've seen that picture of "Phineas" in the one-piece bathing suit :-) I'm liking Lily so far, and the fact that Bogg has reminded himself that she's not Olivia (although it was also nice to see Olivia). I always thought Mabel Hubbard had a special place in Bogg's heart, too. Hmm... I wonder if she survived Alexander Graham Bell... :-)

Oh, and "Wow, that’s pretty neat, hands-on training. I heard something around campus about new programs being developed for it." Hee! That's kind of like what we were discussing in the PM!

Only Lilly would land on a bridge and be afraid of heights...lol
NO...Jeff fell thru the boards of that dumb bridge! OH - what an exciting situation that was! ::gasps:

YAY - Friendly Face Bobby's in this story :) Love the concept of the VAP program, smart idea to keep everyone safe in the field.

p.s. WHAT!! My voyage with Lilly is over!! :( Please write another Lilly story - I like her - she's all quirky and different!! This was a EXCELLENT STORY. A :-)

Again - the boys are there to help out! :O OMG - I wonder if it was it a Drake strike to get his hands on the new omni!

OK...now I know that Bogg comes up with some hairbrained ideas - but robbing the ppl...PRICELESS!

This was a great quick action packed chapter! OMG - the AVALANCHE!! OH NO! AWESOME JOB :)

OMG - she got her hands on the morphine, she certainly is a spitfire...HA HA HA!! Me thinks that Bogg doth protest to much when it comes to Lilly! Maybe another time they'll see each other again...sigh!!

When will the boys learn that they need to dress in layers! You would think by now that Jeff would have picked up a sweatshirt or something...lol! Oh wait, there's always the kindness of strangers to get them clothes...doh!!

Of all the people to run into Calamity Jane! OW - that would not have been a good thing for Lilly to drown in the mud trying to help with the medicine.

Boy she hits a nerve with Bogg, huh!?! :O What a cool Omni - love the yellow light concept.

p.s See - my poor Jeffy's still having nightmares from POTO :O ROFLOL!

A Voyager afraid of heights...lol! Well that will make for some interesting voyages.
Lilly seems like a character, she has some very interesting quirks and interests. But remind me never to get near her in the Anti-Gravity Chamber...lol! What a great idea in having Olivia as the teacher for this course - I'm sure she has some stories to tell from her days voyaging. I wanna practice too - that sounds like fun.
Boy sounds like the OCC worked ** making sure these new Omni's weren't as tough on their bodies as before - glad to see though, that the old feature is still available...roflol! :)
This looks like it is going to be a fun story to read :-)

:O ::gasp!:: I NEED A HERO! I'm gonna CRY! Good tears, I guess, but still! Ginger, that was a great story! :)

I like Lilly, and I really like that you can write a whole new female character for Bogg and not once reference Kayla! I'm very impressed!

And as for Lilly's last assignment... what an interesting way to make a green light! Very clever. :)

Congrats on a job well done. I'm looking forward to more stories with Lilly! :)

GOOD LORD! First she gets smooshed by a wagon, takes morphine AND alcohol (with sickening results), and THEN nearly dies on a doomed train in an avalanche!?!?!

Remind me to never become one of your characters... EVER! ROFLOL!

I love these little pieces of voyages... it's very different from the 10,0,0,0 word stories we tend to write. ::giggles:: Little snippits are really cool. But only one more chapter to go? Sadness. :(

Wow... you go right for the drama, don'tcha? Nearly drowing in mud on your first voyage?? Poor kid! Ah, but to be rescued by the handsome Phineas Bogg... le sigh. :)

Another rousing chapter, well written and full of mini-angst. Me likie. (noticed some grammatical problems; they weren't bad cuz the RPOD didn't even twitch. ::giggles:: The PPOH will send you an email soon. ::wink:: )

Looking forward to the rest of the story, and finding out just what that yellow light does! :)

Aw! How cute! I like Lilly so far. Great start Mrs. B. :) I love how you've 'gone techincal' here... brave, brave woman. I wouldn't even BEGIN to try to explain Voyager technology!

I think I'm gonna like this one. :)
