Ardor In August Review: Keiliss
Aug. 18th, 2009 05:02 pmToday I printed out a few of the Ardor in Augusts and I thought I would post reviews on my journal. Here is the first one.
A Plain, Simple Love Story
By Keiliss
I do have to take the author to task as there is a great deal to this story and I feel that it is neither plain, nor simple. No no. When Keiliss weaves a tale, it is with a dedication to the detail and richness necessary to tell the tale. I am writing my review carefully here with a mind to not spoiling the story for anyone, but I think it is safe to say that keiliss builds a plausible back story and occupation here for her main character (Erestor), the complexities of court life in second age Lindon and a robust, strong Gil Galad who is very believable as a character. I found myself enjoying every word of the story and really caring about what happens to the two paired. So simple? I would have to disagree with that but read this, yes, you surely should.
