Tanookie 2008-10-08 ch 11,	You quote Limaayel's work verbatim a lot. Is this on purpose? Because if it is, you should at least check to make sure it's okay with her. :P Nevertheless, I shall favorite this. Witty, clever, and strangely compelling since it's an actual story. I tip my hat to you, good sir.
Skyward Ending 2008-09-21 ch 6,	Um...was the kimchi part supposed to be real, as in NOT Sue'd? As in, it was supposed to be part of the whole Japanese deal? I'd really appreciate it if you'd answer this question...
half-sketched.staccatos 2008-09-17 ch 2,	konban wa Eh, I don't really like this all that much. I can see how what you're writing is humor, but this sort - dumb humor - I don't really like. Mine is more along the lines of sarcasm or irony. shrug Ask me why I'm reading, though; I'll have no answer. Though I don't really like the humor, somehow I still haven't exited. :P I'm a strange one. chuckles Definitely have to agree with you on the whole Paolini front. Well, based on this chapter, I assume you hate him and his work. rolls eyes Plagiarizing from the greats. Hm, any suggestions on what I should read? Ha det -Shan-
LikeFlames 2008-09-07 ch 5,	I love it, so much! I want to read the rest of this ASAP! (The only reason I'm reviewing now instead of when I finish is because it's rather late here and I'm tired, but wanted you to know that one more person thought this work was FANTASTIC!) I adore the Quests(TM) company, and Captain Cliche and everything! I'd like to let you know, as well- I'm glad I'm reading this now instead of after I (hopefully) finish the novel I'm writing, because I've already put down in my notes a couple of things that I hadn't even really thought about yet. (I'm not to that part in the book yet, you know?) But, thanks to you, there will be no ridiculous Majeek ; ) in my story, nor amazing!untrained!expertise with weapons! You are doing a great service to the community at large : D
antifrizz 2008-08-22 ch 6,	Ah, this one strikes home! (I'm a bit of an anime/manga freak, so...ha ha, I know what you're talking about...) Great job with describing the ridiculousness of anime reactions (like the tears, the sweatdrops, etc.). I like how you did research on this one--and I didn't know that about ninjas...though now that I think about it, it's painfully obvious...thanks for the information! Anyway, nice job!
antifrizz 2008-08-22 ch 5,	dies of laughter Now THAT was HILARIOUS! Ah, the joys of dragons...I'm liking how this is turning into a sort of epic revolution lead by former employees. Quest(TM) is quite the fantasy-world. Ah, off to chapter six...
antifrizz 2008-08-22 ch 4,	You're really nailing these cliches! Ah, how awesome. Nodamuo came back! Ha ha...Captain Cliche kind of scared me though... Don't really know what else to say, except that this is becoming QUITE the adventure...it's almost...a quest...maybe...
antifrizz 2008-08-22 ch 3,	Absolutely LOVED this one! It's DEFINITELY annoying when a villain is a **. I like my villains creepy, sadistic, and intelligent. I hope Nodamuo has a repeat appearance...
antifrizz 2008-08-22 ch 2,	Yes, Eldest WAS terrible...I still read it, though...sigh So, is Quest(TM) a real game? Or just a parody of a real game that you decided to make fun of? 'Cause it kinda sounds like D&D... Anyway, that stuff about elves is SO true...Tolkien was the first one to make the tall, willowy elves, I think (or he's the first one I know of) and now that's all there is...I miss the tiny elves of old...ahh, but yes. I do often wonder how these creatures manage to survive when they don't work visibly... Well, I'm excited about this, so...chapter three! (Hey, are there any GOOD fantasy books that you would recommend? I mean, obviously you dislike the mainstream ones, but there's gotta be a few original stories out there...)
antifrizz 2008-08-22 ch 1,	Wow. First of all, Diarrhoea is a WONDERFUL name...(British spelling, right? Are you British?) and I think I choked while laughing hysterically at some point during this chapter... Ah, I admire you for doing this. Beat the crap out of those stereotypes! Off to read chapter two...
meh 2008-08-18 ch 7,	This is hilarious, but there is no way it can, in any way, accurately mimic fiction that is written. No one could possibly write this badly if they weren't trying.
Sarthim 2008-07-07 ch 15,	All of the parodies are creative and yet in a scary way...true. It is very entertaining to read them. Needless to say, I enjoy them
Andy Anderson 2008-06-08 ch 1,	You know, at first, upon reading your biography, I found you - well, let's just say a tad arrogant. So when I found your collection of fantasy parodies, and I decided to read said parodies, I wanted to hate them. I wanted to pick and pull your writing apart, and remind you that while you flew your "My ** Doesn't Stink" flag above the world, you were, in fact, staining your drawers, if slightly. But after reading this first chapter, I just can't do that. This is a very well-rounded, well-written parody; the cleverly-placed cliches all add up to a substantial piece of work. Your style reminds one of Terry Pratchett, and - I hate to say this - I can't wait to read the rest. Damn you. Damn you for being a writer worthy of respect. I bow to thee.
TheKnaveOfSpades 2008-05-29 ch 3,	Break in case of heroes. There is so much just in that one little sentence that fills me with joy, I can't even begin to articulate the joy the previous chapters brought me, and the future joy I'm sure the next chapters will bring me. I personally look forward to a day when the bookshelves are filled with stories of this kind, that look back at all the stupid fairy-tale cliches and totally flips them upside the happy ending. Write on, master. Write on. The Knave
rofl-woffles 2008-05-22 ch 6,	HAHA. Okay, this wins. I do happen to be fan of anime/manga, and it's so awful when you see stuff like this. Oh God. Nice ripping. SUGOI DESU KAWAII NE NE NE? :D
