LotR fic recommendation
Oct. 31st, 2004 11:10 pmI rarely recommend fics, but I have to say that I have fallen in love with a LotR WIP fic. It's called By the Light of Earendil's Star and it is written by Lady Branwyn.
It is a story about Boromir and Faramir. Here is her summary: "After an ambush in Ithilien, young Faramir has little hope of rescue from his captors or from his own despair. Unless help unlooked-for should arrive..." It is well-written, and is solid book!canon. It is well-plotted, which to me is very important. And, it is Hurt/Comfort, which is often my favorite genre of fanfic (grins sheepishly). The supporting characters are vivid. Very vivid! There is a bit of gore, but it isn't much, and shouldn't dissuade you from reading this gem. I am on pins and needles waiting for chapters. Honestly, I am surprised and delighted to find this on ff.net, and I will definitely be following it.
