Xena and Gabrielle encounter Lykeas, whom Xena knows and whose past and future are tied to the amazons.
Absolutely gripping...enjoyed it immensely. - Anonymous - Feb-25-2007    This was the first Xena fanfic I read. I was lucky to chose it, since it made me want to read more. Have I read something less gripping, I might've well steered away. Though Xena and Gabrielle weren't the ones I know, the well drawn character of Lykeas will be one of my all time favorite fictional characters. The plot is interesting spiced with the more interesting aspects of the Xenaverse. - XS Dark Lord - Mar-22-2008    Awesome story. Nothing else need be said. - Anonymous - Feb-10-2010    Great story...!!!! - Anonymous - Apr-12-2010    A wonderful and touching story. The characters are realistic and human. This is a story that draws you in and holds you to the final line... - Ricky - Mar-23-2012    Great story!!! The plot has depth, the characters are believable, and one cannot help falling in love with the Amazon Boy :) - Claudia - Dec-31-2013

It was very well written and it had me until the very end. The characterization was great. I have to say though, I couldn't stand Paige. I think she was a bit of a lousy friend. Sort of reminded me of the phrase 'misery loves company' at times. Once again though, great story. - Anonymous - May 25th, 2003    I just needed to read this story to put me in very good mood..wow...very very well done.. and just wonder why this wonderful story hasnot been publish yet..I would say this one is a plus.keep the good work miss.

Haunting and real. - offhemeds - Feb-01-2009    Very good read! The relationship between the heroins is developed in a very realistic way. Don't get me wrong, "realistic" doesn't mean "boring". It's just that the characters act like real human beings, their feelings are understandable. That makes this story a highly recommended one. In fact, it has qualities I never see anywhere else.

When The Land Is Dark by Day     

Original / Uber | Futuristic | Alternative | Drama | Novel - 250 pages | Unfinished | Cast: Jo, Mickey, Christa, Basil, Dane, Vivien, Bruno, Reuma
Brilliant. Excellent. Fantastic. Some of the best I've read, now I just wait for "the end." - lakey - Jul 21st, 2004    Wonderful and amazing story! Grim and realistic tale with very believable and lovable characters. The intensity of the relationship between the main characters is well done and extremely heart-rending. I give this a 9 out of 10 rating. More parts to "When the Land is Dark" can be found from Day's homepage here:http://ca.geocities.com/dayliobserver/frontpage1.htmlThe story is still unfinished, and I seriously hope that the author would continue it, although it seemed to have not been updated for a long period of time. Such a great story shouldn't be left hanging, please update!! - aurelius - Oct 27th, 2004    This is one hell of a story, wish it was finished. - Brighteyez08 - Oct-08-2009    ANNALEIs STAMP OF APPROVAL - It states that this piece is unfinished, but I only realised that after I've read it. I was okay with where the author stopped. So even if it is never finished, I do not feel deprived. - Anna Lei - Jan-22-2010    ANNALEIs STAMP OF APPROVAL - It states that this piece is unfinished, but I only realised that after I've read it. I was okay with where the author stopped. So even if it is never finished, I do not feel deprived. - Anna Lei - Jan-22-2010    Yes, it is unfinished, but still well worth the read. It didnt leave me feeling frustrated by its abrupt ending. A really good story and well written. - Anonymous - Feb-22-2010    What more do I need to say other than; you are so good! This is a must read. - JettBlk - May-22-2010    This is one of my all time favorites, one of the below posters is correct. Despite, it never being completed it does stop at a decent part of the story. It doesn't leave you regrets. - brighteyez08 - May-30-2010    What a great story. I wish it had been finished. Would have loved to see how the author intended to end this great tale. I am happy that our two ladies were moving in the right direction. Day - if you check in, please finish. This is a fantastic read. - Anonymous - Jul-01-2010    This is an amazing read. its captivates the reader from the beginning to the end. - sandy - Sep-09-2012
