CaptainSkittlez chapter 10 . 4/25/2007 Whaddya know? A POP fic that I can actually read without dispairing and having to go sit in a dark room for hours at a time. You seem to have captured the idea that the prince isn't a superhero, but just a normal guy. The first few chapters made me grin a lot, because character torture is the best. I do it far too often. -glee- Anyway, regardless of my opinion of character torture, this is still a pretty good fic. I'm glad to see that the pirates that picked him up were wary of him rather than instanntly warming to him and declaring him a leader, which some people do. I am also glad that they DO actually seem like pirates and not a jolly parade of dancers on a nautical voyage :P I look forword to your update. Prince Dahaka. |
Wingd Demon VM chapter 10 . 9/25/2006 Thank you for providing a very entertaining read for my first taste of Prince of Persia fanfictions. It's a great story, and I hope that you will carry it out to completion. The action is awesome. The fight scenes are great. You have the Prince get hurt often enough to keep me a happy camper (I'm one of those sadistic people that love to torture the main character as much as humanly possible). So. . .up the good work. Please update soon! |
Xelena chapter 10 . 12/8/2005 interesting... i don't think i've read PoP fanfiction before, but this is good |
Chasm chapter 10 . 12/6/2005 I found that the use of more modern cuss words, such as "shit" and "fuck", a little out of place, since the timeframe in the Prince of Persia trilogy suggests that the game's events take place in some distant past. In my opinion. I can't say how many persons would agree with me, but that's my two cents... Anyways, it's a relatively minor complaint, and I still think your story is good and good. It isn't heavily discriptive, and events happen at a rapid clip (a good thing) The presentation is also nicely smooth, and easy to follow and understand. I'll keep an eye out for the next chapter. |
Chasm chapter 6 . 12/6/2005 By all means, write more, write more. It had occured to me earlier that, while the Prince was out at sea, how could the Dahaka get him? I suppose this answers my question. Unless you have something else up your sleeve...? |
Chasm chapter 2 . 12/6/2005 The name of the ship does ring some bells, but I still can't place it. Sorry 'bout that. I'm liking this fic so far. Let's see what chapter 3 has to offer... |
Chasm chapter 1 . 12/6/2005 Well, well, well... Not a bad start you have here. Looking forward for more. |
CoeurDeFurie chapter 2 . 11/22/2005 Queen Anne's Revenge happens to be a rather famous pirate ship. It started life as the French slave ship La Concorde but was captured by Blackbeard and his pirates off Martinique. After they captured it, they reworked it, renamed it, and it became the flagship of their fleet. |
A.N. Harris chapter 1 . 11/7/2005 This is really good, REALLY good. A bit choppy in parts, but amazing otherwise. A bit more flow would perfect it. Amazing. Keep it up. |
Lady Discord chapter 10 . 8/17/2005 Hello again, after all this time! I’m so very happy you updated. Sorry for the late review but ever since I last updated my own story (which I think it was in March) I really did not have time to go on the net and especially write stories. That’s because this was my last high-school year and in my country we have to pass some difficult and highly stressful exams at the end of it. It’s ironical, because these exams are really pointless, but if you don’t pass them and obtain a diploma, you can’t go to university. Then, I had to pass a more special exam to obtain a diploma that allows me to teach English at kindergartens and elementary schools. Though I don’t really see myself as a teacher, it’s a good thing to have this diploma because it proves I have advanced knowledge of the English language, so I don’t have to pass a language test when applying for a job or going abroad. I finished with these exams at the beginning of July and ever since I have been studying (again! :( ) for the university entrance examinations that I have to pass on September 1st and 2nd. The exams are at English and French, including literature, and they are more difficult than the ones I’ve already passed. But I’ve heard studying at the university is not as stressful as it was at school and I hope I’ll have time to update more often. For now, I’ve almost finished writing the next chapter of my story and I’ll post it in a day or two. But enough about me. Let’s get back to your wonderful story. The new chapter was awesome! The turns your story takes are very intriguing and interesting. It’s nice to hear that Nessia and the Prince will be less hostile towards each other in the future. Actually, you implied that very beautifully in the story, through dialogues and descriptions. I admire the way you develop their relationship. You don’t simply make them like each other all of a sudden, but you put them in various situations, where they have no choice but work together if they want to survive. This slowly brings them closer, as they are forced to trust each other and discover they can truly do that. After they will have spent enough time together, I believe they will be able to look beyond appearances and realize that neither of them is a threat to the other. Or will Nessia turn against the Prince at a certain point? I hope not. They make a great team. But even if such a thing will occur, I’m positive you’ll make it look good and I’ll like it nevertheless. I suppose you’ve heard this from every reviewer, but it’s true and I can’t help myself but repeat it: You dialogues are very well written. I love them and I think you’ve captured the Prince’s character perfectly. Your storyline is also very good, which brings me to the new character you have added. I think he and Nessia had once worked together, then one of them turned against the other and now they’re enemies. Am I right? I guess I’ll have to wait for the next chapter to find out. I’m also looking forward to finding out about Nessia’s background and I want to know more about this African guy. He seems to be a cool character so far. Please update very, very soon! Yours truly, Lady Discord PS: Poor Prince, he gets his ass (not to mention his head, back and every other part of his body) kicked in every chapter, and he still manages to get back on his feet and do battle. He’s one strong dude! Gotta love him! :) |
FOREVERGONEFOREVERYOU chapter 1 . 8/16/2005 AWESOME...Very well-written. COntinue. |
Santarus chapter 1 . 8/13/2005 Wow, thats really good. I write fan fiction too but I always get writers block when trying to write a serious story. When I write humor you can throw almost anything in there. Good job with the story. Two big Dahaka thumbs up! |
emeraldLINX chapter 10 . 8/13/2005 Yay you updated! Don't worry about that damn internet connection, I'll still wait as long as need be to read the next part. So intrigued! YAY! Well written, as always. Um, cliffies are evil (though I tend to leave on them too...hehe)... And...hm. yes. Can't stop thinking about how hot the prince is! Aie! *ahem* Sorry. You make him sound really hot in battle; I, as a simple-minded fangirl, can't help myself. |
gravemaker chapter 10 . 8/9/2005 this is gravemaker again. IM ANGRY AT YOU! THAT WAS TO GOOD OF A CLIFF HANGER! I NEED MORE! AH! that warhammer guy sounds so cool. i wanna learn more about him. you better get more chapters up! i read these when i got notin to do in school! so hurry up! |
Saddened Soul chapter 10 . 8/8/2005 OH... MY... HOLY... GOD... A PRINCE OF PERSIA STORY I LIKE HAS BEEN UPDATED! THANK THE GREAT, DIVINE LORD! Ever since I discontinued my own, formerly successful PoP story, I drifted away from the PoP section; I now suck off of the Silent Hill section... I hope that made sense... This ROCKED! Thank you for using my ideas! YAY! ...Anyway... this was great, and I wonder who the black dude is... By the way, Lady Discord SHOULD update... I also noticed that July has left us... ~ _ ~ |
