by The Mutt
It was good but, the ending kind of threw me. Was the magic that was begining love, and why did she make such a fuss if she was going to share all of herself with him in the end? It should have a bit more to finish it out.
The captivating beginning entranced me and held my intrest throught the action, mystic, romance, erotic tale. Great story...good luck (*_*) Happy Halloween
That was beautiful Mutt!!!
Your descriptions were amazing, and it's obvious you've done your research.
The end was so romantic, that she would sacrifice so much. You are an inspiration to other writers.
Well done. ;-)

I usually find "Historical" stories to be a complete disaster, this is less so than most. The main problem is making the characters from a different age come to life and engender sympathy. I don't find I care about your characters very much, there is an intellectual coldness about this story that bothers me. Our writing styles/philosophies are so different I probably shouldn't be leaving this comment. I think you are more effective when writing stories that take place in the present century. Good luck!
A wonderful story filled with everything a romantic like me could ever want. Good luck!
I liked your witch even though she is much more accomplished than mine. LOL
The beginning of your story was excellent, that pulled me right into the story.
Good luck.
you created Mutt....the terminology faltered in a couple places and broke my stride,didn't go with the period.. This tale of sacrificing immortality for love is often told, yet I still found your telling of it refreshing and touching. Very nicely written.
An intriguing swashbuckler, Mutt. There may be some historical inaccuracies but it was a good read nonetheless.
I gotta say, I really liked that endng. It could've gone either way, him using another, but chosing love...well, that was great! Thanks!
But an excellent and pleasurable read. Thank You. Ronnie W.
I like the amount of desire woven into the story! Desire and delay is very sensual!
It read more like an Irish tragedy, similar to Finn Mac Cumhal, but it was still worthy of 5 big stars! Excellent work! :)
Irish myths are so rich and flavourful. But you lost me when the witch started spouting all that Earth Mother - Sky Father Neo Pagan Wiccan bullshit. You could have drawn from a great mythological tapestry but you went with the super vague modern rubbish.
Shame. Wasted opportunity.
Stupid man always thinking with his little head instead of the big one. Nice story though.
