OMG, Jen, why did you not tell me that this is a prequel to "Lord of the Jewls"?! You let me read and bite my nails, wondering what you had in mind for these characters and then it hit me, when I read the name "Lindaril" for the first time. I was like: "Holly Eru! It's all coming along now and the story is just huge!"
Honestly, this was amazing. You have created strong, believable characters and you have given a full account of their history. Wow, when that first chapter began with Feanor in his youth, I never would have dreamed that you would take the story through Ages and lands, bringing it at this point. And, to know that it goes on in "Lord of the Jewls"... I'm simply stunned by how much your imagination has created and how you have managed to cover all the Elves' known history and then some more, after the War of the Ring.
Sorry if I'm not making much sense, but I'm quite overwhelmed. It would take me forever to write such a complex story and even then it would not come close to how good and fascinating yours is.
