Great Alternate timeline Xena story with a twist. Gets better and better everytime I read it. There is such strong emotion packed in a short story - Anonymous - Sep-11-2009 Really well crafted story. Very interesting take on the Conqueror theme. - Georgia - Jul-27-2010 Anything written by Carola Rychan Eriksson is great ! This story is superb. You feel the anguish and misery in this Gladiator's bleak existence. Very powerful. - Thothgirl22 - Jun-13-2011 Carola Rychan Eriksson is one of my favorite writers. Her stories have entertained me, often leaving me wanting more. This story leaves an indelible impression. A spellbinding short fiction. - kc - Jul-21-2011 this story does remind me of 'when fates collide'.. with a bit of a twist.. wonderfull.. - xtra dog - Nov-07-2011 |

So...cute! Just found this story one day and couldn't stop smiling. Worth the read..and the sequal is too. - Anonymous - Nov-03-2007 LOL!!!! this story is SUPER SWEEEEET!!! =D totally deserve a sequel. - Rye - Dec-19-2007 This story is a keeper! So is the bard, Carola's stories may be short but she's one of the very best; she's got humor, sure, but she's s master of drama as well. Read the sequels to this story, and then continue reading the rest of her stuff. You'll never ever regret it. - Engraved - Dec-19-2007 This is just so cute, check this one out! - Shadow - Dec-20-2007 This story, or the whole series actually, is among the best I've read.

I even had to look up about their egg hatching and its true, painted ones doesnt need male to lay eggs..

a very deep and touching story about the rebirth of the world, and two women who love, live and fight to defend their family in it. - Anonymous - Sep-11-2011 this author has the ability to create entire new worlds that feel familiar nonetheless.. - xtra dog - Feb-22-2012 Wow, what a fantastic story! Would love to see this expanded or continued with a sequel or two. A previous reviewer is right - Ms. Eriksson can create a world alien yet wonderfully written so it is familiar to us. For science fiction fans, this is a must read! - Stacia - Apr-26-2013 I have read several of Carola Rychan Eriksson's stories and she is a maestro in writing short stories which read like an epic. I am always astounded how she can develop a character in such a short amount of time and have the reader so emotionally moved by the end. This is a beautifully written story. - Goatgrrl - Sep-08-2013 |

This definitely different, but hauntingly beautiful. - Anonymous - Dec-15-2007 Wow...this author has the ability to write something beautiful and epic. This story was way to short for her talents. I hope she writes something again soon...and next time takes her time and draw it out and give us pages and pages of magic. - JC - May-15-2008 i cannot say it any better but i sincerely agree with jc's comments. i look forward to reading more from this writer. - kc - Jan-18-2011 a whole book written in five pages.. when can we expect the extended version 'cause this story certainly deserves that.. - xtra dog - Feb-22-2012 I read this story a number of years ago and never forgot it. Wow ! How wonderful to see it posted here. Beautiful, heartwarming and heartwrenching story. Read it, you'll see. - Thothgirl - Oct-26-2012 It is impossible for me to comprehend how such a short story could be so engaging and so complete.
