Smitty is one of my favorite authors. This is a person who was born with the gift to tell a story. She is so incredibly gifted, that I forget I am a reader. Her words become the truth, a reality. The Amazons of Dahomey was a fantastic follow up to The Charioteer. EMPOWERING.... - SHANE - May 23rd, 2002 Susan Smith has a unique gift in telling a story. Though I cannot see the Xena and Gabrielle from the TV series in her story, but she had taken the characters of Xena and Gabrielle into another world of her own creation filled with drama, adventure, and romance. When I read this story, I always thought it more of an uber than classic Xena fiction, though it is not exactly uber and more of classic. I think only a great story teller can do that flawlessly. Thank you. - BYL - Mar-14-2006 It was a good and inspiring piece of work, though that Xena seemed strange for me.. - XS-DARKLORD - Dec-21-2008 this is a great read. try it. - Anonymous - Jan-05-2009 |

Brilliant! Fantastic! Terrific! Engaging! Entertaining! Intriquing! Um I may run out of superlatives, but I would definitely recommend 'running out' to read this story!For starters, it is very well written with grace and style. It is a tale in the true tradition of story telling. Incredibly descriptive (umm, a little hit and miss with ancient geography, but hey.)you really feel drawn in to the world of Har.The characters of X & G are very nicely developed within the tale, while still be familiar from the show. Well done. Off to read the sequal now. - XenaVirgin - Nov 18th, 2005 This is and the sequel are excellent. Well written, attention to detail, and IMHO well worth the read. I'm sorry this author has given up or lost her muse. - ~M - Jun-29-2011 Amazing story!! This author is something special. She has a true gift and we are lucky enough to get to reap the benefits. Don't miss this one. It is a rare treat. - Believer - Apr-07-2015 |

This has to be a story I stopped the world for. I holed up in my room, and read this story straight through, forgoing sleep to finish the entire story in one sitting. Drag Kings has a sequel that finishes the whole story beautifully. I can't praise this enough, I never really thought of being attracted to drag kings but this has opened my eyes. I can't praise you Smitty enough for this beautiful and engaging story. I've read it twice since I first read it a month ago.. wonderful, brava, bravo and all the sentiments which promote congratulations. Thank you. - DesignGeek - Mar 13th, 2003 Contrary to the tag, this is NOT unfinished, however you do have to hop around a bit in the archive links to find all of it. It is INCREDIBLE. As the other reader mentioned, I too, stopped the world for this story and read it to completion. This story is wonderful. I hope that the Athenaeum could get permission to host this so that it does not get lost forever, because it is truly wonderful.This is a story that I highly recommend, and is romantic and warm enough to melt stone. Allow yourself a good weekend to read this one, because you will not want to put it down!!! - -Aerows- - Aug 14th, 2005 WOW!... - katrina - Oct 8th, 2005 WOW! is right!This story is off to a fantastic start..tho the link to Chapter 8 is down.Chapters 9-24 worked. This is a "MUST READ"! - Anonymous - Oct 15th, 2005 |
