NaylaS2 2008-08-18 ch 1,	abuseWOW. wonderful!
Valadan 2008-07-21 ch 1,	abuselaughs That image of a hugging-free-for-all had me in stitches! Great story, quite light and humuorous, but with a deeper meaning underneath. A nice way to show how much Edmund trusts Aslan, and part foreshadowing for the way the older sibling don't, later on. Very nice!
Danni Evans 2008-05-21 ch 1,	abuseA delightful story! I especially love the last line - it sounds exactly like something Lewis himself would write. Cheers!
Ilada'Jefiv 2008-05-20 ch 1,	abuseAw! Great job! You've certainly captured Ed well, as I can see him saying and doing just that! Awesome work! ~Ila
Matchbox Dragon 2008-03-26 ch 1,	abuseThis is a lovely piece. The four of them are perfectly in character, and their motivations and reactions are realistic and well-developed. Nice work!
Monkey 2008-03-19 ch 1, anon.	abuseI absolutely LOVED this. This was so cute that I wanted to laugh and cry at the same time. :P I escpecially loved this line: "Hugging her back, Edmund lifted an eyebrow at his slightly brooding older siblings, as if daring them to do the same." THAT made me laugh. Well done, and keep writing. =D You are very good.
KCS 2008-03-12 ch 1,	abuseHA! GO EDMUND! That was simply phenomenal - you have the Pevensies AND the Narnian atmosphere down pat for one thing, and a lovely idea for a story line as well. Well done indeed!
MyBlueOblivion 2008-03-11 ch 1,	abuseI have to say, I really enjoyed this. It's different from the usual 'Ed's first Narnian winter' fare; most, myself included, have Edmund pegged as a bit overwrought and guilt-wracked during his first true winter. Your take on that thought, that he would instead decide to do something to combat that fear and remorse, not just for himself but for everyone else, was both surprising and refreshing. I also liked Peter and Susan's responses to their brother's actions, whispering in corners and fretting about the possibilities, instead of confronting him outright and finding out the truth. Typical over-protective siblings! All in all, this is very nicely written, and a nice twist on an old favourite. Instant favourite! ~MyBlueOblivion~
Miniver 2008-03-10 ch 1,	abuseLovely! What a great idea, to reclaim something the Witch thought she had taken for her own. It occurred to me that, seeing as there are four monarchs, the idea of reclaiming the fourth season has a symbolic completeness to it, and the situation also creates parallels with Edmund's progression from "missing fourth" to full member of the group. It's such fun seeing Lucy and Edmund running the show, too! Good job.
Rhyselle 2008-03-10 ch 1,	abuseOh, this was just wonderful! :) The children were written perfectly, and I just laughed with delight to find that while Peter and Susan were fretting away, Edmund had already decided that something should be done to help the people of Narnia to not fear winter. Not only Just but wise as well. :) I am putting this in my favorites. And I hope to see more of your work in the future. Well done!
elecktrum 2008-03-10 ch 1,	abuseHow very sweet and pretty! I love that Peter and Susan were so busy worrying about 'what ifs' that they forgot to take stock of what 'what is!' Edmund's logic about trusting Aslan and his willingness to work towards erasing his subjects' fears was very endearing. Lucy, of course, was just darling, and it was nice to see her teach her elders a lesson!
Almyra 2008-03-10 ch 1,	abuseAwesome. Just a beautiful little one-shot. I loved that Edmund was busy planning and reclaiming winter for Narnia - his maturity and wanting to trust Aslan was lovely. Cute, too, that Peter and Susan learned not to discount Lucy - my sister often complains that no one listens to the youngest. Great job!
