abuseI was shocked to see all of these new alerts, and I tried to review the new chapters only to find that I already had(?!). But I couldn't remember what was going on! So I had to re-read the WHOLE THING all over again. I still loved it, by the way. I hope you post a new chapter soon =) (kitties are aliens...*snicker*)

abuseyay, the unpolished chapter! I'm so glad you posted it. I'm also very glad that I know what Caelin looks like. I do wonder what Kaydn's story is, though. (Jeryn and Kayde! Yay!) Well, I hope you are able to post another chapter soon.

abuseWell, the fast update is a pleasant surprise. I wonder what will happen when Lucien regains all of his memories. I also wonder what will happen in the next chapter, seeing as you left off at such a suspensful place. I'll wait patiently for the next chapter.

abuseThis is really well written. I read the first few chapters and got hooked right away. And I can't seem to find anything else to say other then to ask you to update soon.

abuseThis is likely to be the last chapter I review. I have to stick by my own rules, and you have given up on my story. Besides, I have been spending a good bit of time on another site.

Although not a lot happens in this chapter, I can idenify with the relations that the characters have with each other, because I have stories with this kind of dialogue as well. The angels are just too cute.

I like that Sareth's mother has been reincarnated as the cat. Somehow that fits, and that revelation went over well with me.

abuseIt has been awhile. I have been busy with my own story and I have been reading on another site.

Sareth's momo did indeed know many a mysterious thing, and I fear some may have called her a witch. Humans are freaky that way.

The snowball fight was cute. You haven't got to that part in my story, but my guys are mischievous by nature. Snow is so much fun.

As for Vassago. He was an intereting villain. He seems to get bored with the game. It was cool how Sareth showed up jus in time, but I kind of figured that he would because of having his memories returned.

abuseAh, the bit about the alchemy and angels makes a bit of sense. I did some mild research on Dr. John Dee at one time. (Blue Oyster Cult makes a reference to him in the liner notes of Imaginos. So, I was curious.)

Anyway, Belial seems like a fun fellow indeed! Sometimes I wonder about those blue eyes. Is there some Dante influence going on there about Hell is frozen. The chimera thing is rather wild as well. I like the bit about the swarming bugs.

Ah, Belial should have happily pointed out the dark side of the human race and spoke of the reason the freed slaves could not easily walk abroad, and why Sareth has to protect Lucien from the other humans. You do have enough negatives in your society that I am certain Belial would exploit.

The thing about Sareth's father did not really come as a surprise, butt Sareth feeling some sympathy for the error of his father's way because he became one of Belial's pawns says that Sareth has greatly matured.

Your angels are just too cute. I still like Kaydin the best, because he isn't so bloody cute. Sometimes I think that the Kobolds of my stories are too cute. Still, I do greatly appreciate that there is no slash going on here. I just take it that this is the general nature of the angels to be so affectionate to one another. It does pull a great contrast to the Nefilim.

Oh, and I have a CD by a band called Vassago . . . so that's who he is! (Some of my music is not very nice!)

I did enjoy all the explanations on the Nefilim and their ways in this story as well. It was a very informative chapter.

abuseHey. Sorry it took me so long but I am here to review some more finally. I love the description of the storm. In my stories I always get way too involved in describing the weather, something I seem to be really good at. If only I can better myself at describing people or places . . . . Anyway, there are a few mispelled words here and there and some grammatical errors that need tweaking. Let's see here . . . lightning is mispelled in the first paragraph and "be" should come after "there" in the same paragraph. Just proofread minor mistakes like that and this chapter will be better than flawless because it is already flawless. I'm looking forward to reading more and I will be back whenever I can.

Until Next Time . . . .

abuseOkay, nice long chapter! There are some funny coicidences here. Lucifer's birthday is December 13th as well, and later on in the story, Johann has the tendency of calling Lucifer Lucy. Another amusing little thought is I think that December 13th is St. Lucia Day, and dang it, I can't remember where I learned that piece of information.

The bit about the Alchemical symbols is interesting. I wonder how such things as the balance between the body and the soul came about from a science that was to turn iron into gold and find the elixir to live forever.

It was a good ending. A nice cliffy here. I would think that Sareth, given all the trouble he has had with the Niefielm, he would have put wards about the manor. After all, there is more to protect than himself. Of course, this could be the other angel come to visit.

abuseOkay, hoprfully this will work. The computer is uploading an update for the media player.

Anyway, to the chapter. The fight scene was exciting enough. I have seen some thing with a person being forced to ingest a black substance . . . I think it is one of the Evil Dead movies . . . I have seen too many movies. Ah, but there could have been so many horrible things that the Neifilm could have done to Olaf with a single touch. I am a twisted individual, mind you.

I expected the power of Lucien to surface. I would have thought that this is a test of the angel's powers by the demons. The fallen one is not exactly too upset at his own demise. I think he'll be back. After all, his spirit form fled.

The black ash falling would be alarming, but you didn't explain it. Perhaps it will be some thing that will show up later. I would gather that they were too swept away with everything else to pusue it.

And Lucien just lucks out in everything. He is so cute in his innocence.

I have been busy the last few days with coloring in and posting pictures for The Bane of Rendsberg on my web page. If you are interested, follow the link in my profile. It may well intrigue you to read further. Part II was a rather fun little story.

abuseYou know, you're making this book too good. I've read two chapters back-to-back (very unlike me), and I still want to read more! (did I mention it was twelve at night?).
Anyways, the whole "guy in the back of the church is an angel' thing was awesome. I was wondering who would be that creepy, but there you go.
Great story so far, and I only hope I can read more this weekend. Keep it up!

abuseMy computer is acting very weird, so if you don't hear from me for a couple of days, you know why.

Anyway, to the chapter.

This was quite an informative chapter, and sometimes, I can't help but agree with Kaydin about how affection these two are. It is enough to need a brown bag . . . and I should know! Yet, I figure that is Sareth and Lucien for you.

Sareth is quite immature about his father's death. I don't blame him for not crying, but the thought of it being an inconveninece . . . well, the old fellow was going to die eventually. So, at some point in Sareth's life he was going to have to take care of father's business. Noone lives forever. Of course, this gives the boys the chance to find Sareth's mother's notes.

I hope that you will take a chance to look oveer Part II of Bane. It's shorter, if that helps. I rather liked Part II.

abuseOkay, I am all caught up now.

I have heard of Nefilim before. Actually, I have CDs by a band called Fields of Nephilim. And the boyfriend tried to explain some sruff thereof.

Anyway, the history made for some interesting reading. It also explained about the statue of the dragon and the angel. I guess Sareth is a Grigori, but it is odd that he is born to human parents, and apparently again and again. Maybe this is something of the Grigori nature.

Lucien must fall to Earth often. Painful that.

Ah, the remarks about demons. Are they Nephilim? Or are demons another kind of monster altogether?

And I figured that the young upstart in the church was Kaydin. It was so like him!

abuseThere is going to have to come a time when these evil critters get at Lucien and Sareth out in the open. There is too much of hiding behind the barrier. I should talk with all the lack of encounters my characters have.

I think the stanger in the church was that other angel fellow, the one in the prologue. Hey, it seems to fit his character.

The book is nifty. I have some weird artifacts in Part I of Bane . . . well, it is just one, but there is no telling what else Josef will dig up!

I don't know it is a misspelling on your part, or it was meant this way, 'Sheppards' is suppose to be 'shepherds'. Of course, you could be using some other form of the word. I am not too wise in the way of demons and angels, mind you.

I do like Sareth's reaction to the demon's name calling of Lucien. I realize it is a spur of a moment thing, but it almost seems cowardly to fight the demon behind a barrier.

Anyway, one more chapter to go, and then I'll be caught up (and before my day off, too!)
