It is interesting that Nyla has lived happily alone and seemingly self sufficient and fearless.
The introduction of two fine guard gdogs is opportune and realistic.
Perhaps Dak will introduce friendship or?love.

I'm sorry I'm so far behind, Rox, catching up now. This is an amazing story, and I'm loving it! I'd love two dogs like those guarding Nyla, and her beauty!! lol. Going to the next part now! :) Sandra xxx

A very good story. It reminds me of Clan of the Cave Bear. here's hoping it's just as successful. An interesting story told with real imagination.

    I hope I won't disappoint. This is completely different from anything I have written. I mainly do a children's series called The Adventures of Super Pig. I do funny poems. So this is a real stretch for me and I'm a bit nervous about it. ={ Hoping my brain, words and imagination doesn't fail me. Thanks so much for the great review. Rox

Hi Roxanna,

I hope you don't mind if I show some mistakes you've made and that you can change quickly. In your first lines you wrote: It wasn't an easy placed to find -
remove the "d" in placed so it reads: It wasn't an easy place to find. Also you wrote: But the times when someone did stumbled upon it; It just doesn't sound right. Why not say: But "there were" times when someone stumbled upon it; (remove the word "did") . They would describe as a land of giants, some called them the shining giants. (Remove the word "as") Well this is getting too long so I'll stop showing you what needs to be changed.

This is getting long so I'll read the rest of your story. I was amazed at how nice all the rest of it was written. I really enjoyed reading your wonderful story.

MizKat or Kat

A lovely story with wonderful characters. The main character Nyla is easy to connect with and we find ourselves rooting for her.
The setting is great.
Too bad the men aren't 8 feet tall, I rather like giants. :D

Is this a viking story Roxie? I find it to be interesting. I found a few Typo's in the story. I know how hard it is to edit your own work so I will rate this a five. Well done. Nancy

Roxanna this is a delightful story. I enjoyed very much reading it. At one point you misspelled the name of Nyla, you wrote Nayla. Have a happy New Year. Patricia

I rather like your story of these impressively built Viking like people of Walgaland, and Nyla, who is well served by her brothers, who do not like her outcast status because of height lack, but determine to watch over her and guard her, taking terms, one their friend Dak, comes and explains her brothers are off on an expedition, so he will look after her. Well done, I enjoyed your story, good characters, plot, and well written and spagless, well done, blessings Roy
