Well, I told myself I would wait until it was done to rec this, and--alas!--it is done!

If you haven't read " The Wind at Midnight" by icarus_chained , I strongly--strongly!--recommend it.  It's beautiful, lush, romantic as hell, and it tells an absolutely gripping story.  I hesitate to use superlatives like "best" and "finest" and "most amazing," but it's

Wasn't it? What a ride, seriously. We were really given a gift there. :)

I'm blushing like crazy over here ...

Thank you!

[jij]

Blush all you like! I hesitated to gush over it here sooner because I know sometimes writers get a bit frozen at having people go gaga over unfinished work...so I waited. Impatiently. :)

[icarus_chained]

Probably a good plan, even if I'm sorry I strained your patience, because I do have a tendancy to do that ... Thank you doubly, then!

Oh, the wait was only terrible because I loved it so much. You could have released a chapter every 12 hours and I probably would still have been impatient. *grin*

[jij]

It was so worth the wait, though! I'm sure someone taking over the crack_van wheel will rec it soon...

I'm so happy I finally got around to reading it! I let the first few chapters slip by and then it was like, yikes! I have so many to read! So I sat down when I had time I savored each one. :)

They're very...savory, too! Each chapter is so meaty and so intense that I can see how it would be a little overwhelming to try and get caught up...but now that it's done people can take their time and just relish it...*happy sigh*

It's finished? Yay, I can read it now! \o/ When I'm not at work, that is. ;)

*bounces* Enjoy, enjoy!
