 Written 2008-02-16 . chapter 1AH. you wrote this? I read this like... ages ago!
I also see I hadn't reviewed. I apologize for my past self. I was so irresponsible back then. I was years younger... not that I'm very mature now or anything.
Okay, so I'll tell you what. This story inspired me to look into this fairy tale a lot more in depth, at the time. I mean, this story always creeped me out in my girlhood, but by the time I read YOUR take on it, I was a high schooler with no imagination, so it was like being transported back in time when I was younger and... more morbid, oddly enough.
After reading your story, I researched this fairy tale quite in depth actually. That's how much you inspired me. I even researched st. vitus dance... I'm such a dork. That's why I'm so surprised that I didn't review. Odd.
Of course, today I read it again, and I was re-inspired and disturbed all over again :) And it was weirder for me this time, since now I know that YOU wrote this. weird.
It's very good. Strangely personal, and it seems very real. As usual, your writing.. rocks..
I see you've updated your other story, and I will take a look at it on monday :) As it is, I'm at my aunt's and we're expecting company so. not much time to read or write. |
 Hed in the Cloudz 2008-02-16 . chapter 1Wow-- incredibly creepy! At first, I thought that you should have ended it when the children were taken, but your end is even better than that part. My only advice would be to take out the beginning-- we don't need the background information, and it just detracts from the rest of the story, except for the science bit (that this could all be happening to them because of a hereditary disease contracted through incest-- I like that bit).
Oh, one question, though. Where's Guda's husband? In such a small town, I'd think that we'd have heard of him. |
 Arrows 2006-08-31 . chapter 1First of all, I would like to thank you for the kind comments you spared me on my story 'Magdelyn's Folly'.
Second of all, I absolutely must say how fricken DISTURBING this piece is!! I mean, seriously. I will never think of the Pied Piper in the same way ever again. Your little historical note at the end was especially chilling. |
 braindead1345 2006-08-19 . chapter 1Wow this was..amazing,Im sure you could get published in a magzine. |
 Misty Sunrise 2005-04-04 . chapter 1Wonderful. I like the human element you've introduced, and it's also very historical. |
 DaybreakStorms08 2004-12-27 . chapter 1This is a wonderful piece! You must have done much research on the topic, as historically accurate as you are - I'm glad you included the Historical Note. I noticed how you brought in Guda to draw the reader more into the story, giving it a personal depth. I suppose it was the Piper who hung Lord Hamelin, though that wasn't too clear. The descriptions of your characters and their personalities are incredible and effective in drawing the reader into the story. Brilliant work. |
 Mina Carlisle 2004-12-27 . chapter 1This was a very good story. The Pied Piper always interested me, I never really got around to writing about him, so when I saw this I decided to read it, and I'm glad I did. It's very well written and interesting and what makes it even cooler is that it is based in some sort of fact. Good job! |
 aims80 2004-12-27 . chapter 1Very interesting and well written. |
 Queen Anabella 2004-12-27 . chapter 1Wow, your story was very very good. It's wonderfully writen and better than almost all the fiction stories listed on the website. Your character's personalities and reactions are clearly described...and you described it without being dull, which is a feat in itself. I congradulate you on your story and hope you write more. |
