Reviews for The Treachery of the Trees |

coolcat12345 chapter 1 . 11/19/2014 Oh, awesome story! |
MilanRouge chapter 1 . 2/18/2009 This was a great way to explain natural things. Nice job! So added to my community. |
The Good Doctor chapter 1 . 1/18/2008 This is a very good example of how a myth can explain how things come to be. As a fanfic myth, this story does a good job of taking a story we're all familiar with and putting in a few extra details to show us why something is the way it is. While the Persephone/Hades/Demeter angle is overdone, I enjoyed this one. One thing that would've been a good compliment would be if the trees were represented by the hamadryads that lived in them, rather than the plants themselves. Just an idea. |
Blackpen Enaru chapter 1 . 7/14/2006 wow. rather insightful, in a mythological way |
Meggie Dodge chapter 1 . 12/1/2004 Less like Sophocles than the Brothers Grimm. Not that that's a fault: where do we think Ovid got all those Metamorphoses, if not from the fireside tales of ordinary folk? |
Backroads chapter 1 . 10/23/2004 Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. So I would like you to take away your author's note; it doesn't belong. I'm so amazed you could add that much more to the story of Persephone. |
Alteng chapter 1 . 7/15/2004 This worked very nicely. It is told like the tales in mythology books, and without dialogue. It also works nicely with the reality of things and the folklores that a person could create about them. Nice piece. |
Valiowk chapter 1 . 6/21/2004 Oh, this is absolutely, absolutely beautiful! I can't describe the sort of rapture that it throws people into! I liked the idea of the story; the thought that even the trees would choose to side with a person. And I love the Anti-Disclaimer ;) . |
WindSPun chapter 1 . 6/11/2004 I read your story. and guess what- i liked it too you remind me of someone i know... even from the tone of your summary and all I wouldn't have read it had it not caught something in my mind I dunno Since I read pretty much everything those who are kind enough to review for me write, i'm going to take a leap of logic and ask you to please not read my first story. the first ten chapters are awful and i'm doing a complete rewrite It would be too much of a coincidence if you happened to actually BE the aforementioned acquaintence. But then, I'm not quite sure I believe in the idea of coincidences... so out of curiosity... does your first name happen to start with a H? You don't have to reply. By the by... I LOVE YOUR PENNAME! *eep* i'm done now WindSPun |
