Merry will always be a girl’s name to me, and this is coming from a man who has read the Hobbit and the trilogy 4 times. Totally beside the point, just felt like sharing that. I like this, tied in very well with the original, and despite the lack of mention of specifically vampires in the books, it is presumed (concluded? was it certain?) that Sauron was the Necromancer dwelling in the Mirkwood, and we all know what Necromancers do. I really would enjoy reading more of this.
Wow, I’ve seen the movies (and love them), but I haven’t read the books. I do own the Hobbit… but anyway, good job. I don’t know how I feel about vampires tying into this. I’ll have to think a bit more.. nicely written.
