Author has written 9 stories for Lord of the Rings.

Hi there! Lovely that you've come over. I enjoy hearing back from readers and chatting about any and all things Tolkien.

An overview of my stories in order:

Under Strange Stars series:

A not-quite-AU in which a very young Elrohir disappears and is found decades later, living among the Haradrim with no recollection of his true identity.

This unique premise came about because I wanted to journey into the far south of Middle-earth and analyze the Elvish and Mannish heritage of the Peredhel. Also, it was a perfect excuse for a long, detailed exploration of Rivendell and its inhabitants. Apart from Elrohir's journey every element of the stories is true to canon. Each one can be read alone.

1. Under Strange Stars: a Tolkienesque, Lawrence-of-Arabia style adventure featuring Glorfindel, a very lost Elrohir and the Lord of the Nazgûl.

2. The Stars Above the Sea: with a little help from some unusual friends, Elrohir journeys across all of the known world, from Far Harad to Rivendell, where his family awaits him with bated breath.

3. Northern Skies: the series' centerpiece, in which Elrohir finally makes it home to the family he hardly remembers, only to find himself a stranger in a strange land. And of course the Elves have some ancient rifts of their own to mend. A story about trust, acceptance, and most of all about the power of love.

4. Time Does Not Tarry: a few months after 'Northern Skies', Elrohir and Elrond discuss some uncomfortable truths about Elves and Men.

Additional content for the series:

5. Sun and Shadow: Part of Under Strange Stars retold from Elrohir's POV.

6. The Art of Ending: Another scene from Under Strange Stars seen through Elrohir's eyes, showing us what he left behind.

7. The Roads Not Taken: outtakes, deleted scenes, alternative storylines and various tidbits written for the Under Strange Stars series.

Gathering Dusk series:

The Fall of Arnor and the Rise of the Witch-king as seen from Rivendell, centering on Arwen and the twins. This series uses OC's from the Under Strange Stars series, but stays completely true to canon. This series will eventually cover the entire Angmar War, from the division of Arnor to the final Battle of Fornost.

1. Gathering Dusk: The Witch-king lays siege to Rivendell, and all three of Elrond's children will have to make sacrifices to save their home from destruction.

2. Coming soon: False Dawn. When the Witch-king captures the great fortress of Amon Sûl, the Elves of Rivendell find themselves on the last, desperate line of Arnor's defense.

When the Boar Rushed Forth So Wrathfully by EverleighBain reviews
Imladris. Midwinter. A hunt, a boy, a bunch of horses, a bunch of hounds, a bunch of Elves, and Glorfindel overseeing the whole wide parade, of course, because this little story is a Christmas present for Levade, who first made him come alive to me. Story completed: will update regularly.

Northern Skies reviews
Elrohir's odyssey across Middle-earth finally brings him home to Rivendell. Sadly all is not well: the Elf-child that was abducted into Umbar is now a Man grown. Forty years of war and darkness left Elrohir deeply scarred, and the Hidden Valley harbors ancient conflicts of its own. Part 3 of the Under Strange Stars series, can be read on its own. Story now complete!

Under Strange Stars reviews
All is not well in Imladris: a very young Elrohir has disappeared. After decades he is found in the Far South of Middle-Earth. Can Glorfindel rescue the House of Earendil once more? His task is not an easy one: Elrohir has no memory of who he was, and little interest in leaving his people's fight against the Black Nùmenoreans of Umbar.

Sun and Shadow reviews
Under Strange Stars is Glorfindel's story, and the Lord of the Golden Flower certainly enjoys telling all about his dangerous journey into the blazing deserts of Far Harad in search of Elrond's missing son. A riveting tale for sure, but every story has two sides. Today we tell Elrohir's. Part of the Under Strange Stars series.

The Stars Above The Sea reviews
After a long and perilous search Glorfindel found Elrond's missing son in Far Harad - only to lose him again. Will Elrohir's odyssey, across Middle-earth from the furthest South to the North, finally lead him to Rivendell? And what awaits him there? Sequel to Under Strange Stars, but can perfectly well be read on its own.
