That was really, really cool-tell me, have you ever played a role-playing game called Morrow Project? I couldn't help wondering if this Morrow and that Morrow were related...;)

Wow! I like this a lot. the begining was expecaly good, as was the part where Frank found the book. I've never seen a story like this. It's intresting to know the books entire history.

Hey! Another great fic. Well, I have to admit, I didn't read THAT closely, 'cause I've been somewhat of an impatient reader the past couple of days (being sick'll do that to ya), but I liked it a lot. I had similar ideas - explaining how the book got in Einosuke's hands - for my Genbu fic, so I was glad this didn't overlap with that. Oh, and you said to tell you about typos, and the only one I caught was Pear Harbor. *grin* It happens to the best of us, but I admit I had a quick chuckle over that one. Anywho, loved it, like usual.

This fic was really goood! It's an idea I haven't seen written about before and you handled the challenge perfectly! I'd ask for a sequel, but thats FY.

Wow! An *incredibly* interesting fanfic! Fully unique, and extremely well written. ::applauds:: You touched on something no one else has ever done before... And made it realistic, touching... A very good fic! Fantastic! ^_^

Wow. I -really- enjoyed reading this. At first, I was a wee bit skeptical, particularly since it deals with characters not precisely-related to Fushigi Yuugi, but I love all your characters. Despite the fact that Frank lives in a different time, has a completely different life and personality from me, I can very, very much relate to him, which always makes for a good reading experience. :) Ted, too, is a great character-I love his line: "I would've gone with you, you bastard." Awwwww. :( *pats Ted*

One risky thing about this piece is that it starts off with exposition, which can sometimes drag or come off as being a little matter-of-fact, but you pulled it off beautifully. It provides just what it needs to provide, and guides the reader into the appropriate mindset for the rest of the story, as well. :) The dialogue, also, is very sharp and well-done. Ah, and I looove the historical setting. :):) All-around, a great, great story-I'm glad you posted it, and even gladder that I needed something to occupy myself before Descriptive Writing class, and thus decided to print this out and read it. :) Ah, and I realize I haven't been all the great about page-updates recently, but if you wouldn't mind, I'd love to stick this in the fanfic archive, despite it not being about Nuriko. We history nerds have to stick together, ne? ^_~.

In a word - awsome! Just as people are beginning to think that there's nothing new in FY left to write about, you come up with something totally original and believable. As an added bonus, your original charcters were real, and sympathetic. We all know how often *that* happens! Personally, I really enjoyed the hystorical perspective as well. History nerds rock! What else can I say? I really, *really* enjoy your writing. :)

I like it. I REALLY like it. It's one of-perhaps THE most-original concepts for an FY fic I've seen in a long, long time. The question of how the book went from Suzuno to the library is one that I've never seen addressed, and the introduction of World War II into the story COMPLETELY surprised me. I've never seen it mentioned in a fic before. Very good job, very original, and well-written. I don't know how many reviews you'll get, given that this doesn't involve the major characters, but I hope you get somewhere near the amount you deserve for this wonderful refreshing fic that proves it IS still possible to write something original. (This, people, is the RIGHT way to do an original character fic.)
