Original / Uber | Modern | Alternative | Drama | Novel - 306 pages | Finished | Cast: Deven, Rhian, Nicole, Jay, Kelly, Seana, Carl, Mace, Kate, Tiernan Links: The Academy Of Bards                Part 1 of a Series Series List: Poetry in Motion, When You Dance with the Devil
This piece is very well written and tells an excellent story. The lives of Deven and Rhian are very well portrayed and keep you on your toes. I recommend reading this story, you will not be sorry. - Anonymous - Dec 23rd, 2002    One might be tempted to call this story 'Poetry In Writing', as it is captivatingly crafted and told with a good sense of timing, character, and sensuality.This is definitly one of the few stories I've read more than once, even though it is not yet finished. And I only hope we will not be left hanging in the middle. The main characters are fascinating for themselves and as a couple, and the author makes really good use of some other interesting and endearing characters throughout the story. Background, setting, family, friends, past and present are nicely interwoven, and the dynamics leave you wishing for the next update. - annika - Jul 22nd, 2003    My God!! This has got to be one of the best if not the best story out in the Xenaverse today. The writing is incredible and the author is a marvelous storyteller. Her meticulous character development is nothing less than genius. She definitely has a knack for bringing the characters to life. I can not wait for it to be finished and published so I can read it over and over. This has definitely become my favorite story. I highly recommend this story to all. - NR - Sep 13th, 2003    This story is fantastic. It's hard to wait between updates, but so worth it. This part was particularly good. Angst with the family and the girl.....ugh. Can't wait for the next chapter. - swimcap - Nov 7th, 2003    Great story - Anon - Jun 1st, 2004    One of the best uber story I have ever read. I recommend this story to everybody. Great read. - HopeGab'fan - Dec 17th, 2004    This is an entertaining and decently written story, though it doesn't stray much - if at all - from the standard uber formula. Still, there's something to be said for a recipe that's tried and true :), and within those constraints Harley still manages to give us vivid, nicely drawn characters and events that are quite engaging with their fresh familiarity. - Anonymous - Jan 22nd, 2005    Wow! I'm so glad I chance upon this story today! What a fantastic read! I'm just taking my time to savour it the whole day. The icing on the cake, well...it has a work-in-progress sequel (When You Dance with the Devil) that is just as good!!!! If you want a good and gut wrenching emotional uber with lots of depth, you wouldn't want to miss the story of Rhian and Deven! Thank you Harley!!! Hope you'll finish the sequel soon because I intend to read both stories all over again! - Karin - May 17th, 2005    This is poetry. Harley please finish the sequel. - Anonymous - Oct 15th, 2005    This is for me one of THE best uber stories I've read so far and I discovered it by pure accident. Lucky me. The story has it all: angst, love, thrill and the most amazing writing. Thanks for such a great read! - querdenker69 - Feb 15th, 2006    Second time around and it was just as good as the first. Gobble this up for your main course, but leave enough room for it's excellent sequel 'When you dance with devil'. You won't be disappointed. - Sai - Feb-01-2007    A wonderful and definitely very well written story.

Definitely worth the time. - Ricky - Sep-08-2014    I don't know what's up with the ratings for this story but the reviews were dead on. This is a wonderful tale. Good story line, plot and character development made reading this story a great pleasure and allowed you to get absorbed in the tale so that you cared about the characters. There was some editing problems here and there, but nothing that I felt detracted from the overall experience. - ubergoober - Jul-04-2015    This is a really amazing story can't wait to start the sequel now so iam off to do that now xx - SD - Aug-18-2015    This is a really amazing story can't wait to start the sequel now so iam off to do that now xx - SD - Aug-19-2015    Fantastic story well done great job - Anonymous - Dec-11-2015    Fantastic story well done great job - Anonymous - Dec-11-2015
