THE READING ROOM: WRITER'S CHOICE- Avery11

[avery11.livejournal.com]

At glennagirl's suggestion, here is a link to a story I wrote two years ago. It's called The Wild Hunt. As the story opens, Illya and Napoleon are in Ireland, following up on rumors that an old archenemy recently has resurfaced there. It will be a harrowing night.

And it is a crackingly eerie tale, with the tension growing with every bit of the climb. Love it!

Thanks! I'm very proud of the way it turned out.

I remember this story vividly. Excellent choice agus maith thú arís! ( translation in Irish 'and good on you again!)

Thank you! In the television series, this particular villain was one of THRUSH's creepiest. I couldn't resist the opportunity to bring her back.

I'm so glad you decided to post a story, and this one is a very good choice.

My pleasure. Of all my stories, I've always felt that this was the best written. Thanks for the opportunity to share it again.

Bloodcurdling update of the Wild Hunt. Very well done. I love the mix of MFU and eerie supernatural. One quibble - isn't Tir N n'Og the land of eternal youth?

I'm so glad you enjoyed it! And yes, Tir N n'Og is more familiarly known as the Land of Eternal Youth but, in the course of my research, I found references to the place as an earthly island paradise (shades of Atlantis) as well.
