There is a lot of vivid imagery that you have placed.
Reviewer: sam (Signed) · Date: 25/01/09 04:21 AM · On: Chapter 2 Fire of known origin
This is an impact of great imagery that even scares the hell out of me. To imagen that there is a book of such this that could be more important than anything else. WOW!

This book is like the HOLY GRALE. Isn't it? Great vivid and visual imagery.

For some reason this line cracked me up forever!.."Just the look I was going for, quit staring. Dude, take a picture, it'll last longer." Dean immediately swatted at Sams hand as he held up his mobile.' HA! That was hilarious! I love your Sam and Dean in this story. :P

Nice solution of Bobby's to bury it under John's headstone - and cemeteries are consecrated ground, too. Poor Sam, storming out after Dean's wild suggestion about keeping the book. I can't blame him, after the pain of almost losing his brother twice in one night. And knowing what is hanging over Dean's head in a year's time. This was a great read - thank you for sharing....Jules

Neat move of Sam's to call out to Dean that he was trapped, igniting that fierce big brother protectiveness. Hopefully the demon hasn't done too much damage to Dean.....Jules

Dean's stubbornness has once more gotten him into deep doo-doo. That was such a poignant flashback - and that line about the sky shedding tears that he couldn't really pulled at my heart. Things aren't looking good - this demon is more powerful than any they have faced before - and it's on a mission. Hope Bobby can pull it back before it does serious damage to Dean....Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 13/11/08 03:46 AM · On: Chapter 2 Fire of known origin
Whoa! I meant to ask in the last review - what happened to Warminger...now I just found out. That demon must be seriously bad news if Bobby has never seen anything like it before. And salt has had no effect on it. Does it want the book, or Dean? Or both? The headlong rush through the catacombs in the dark with that thing chasing them was nail-biting. Looking forward to the next chapter - it's going to be a hell of a ride....Jules
Reviewer: mizpah (Signed) · Date: 13/11/08 03:37 AM · On: Chapter 1 The Show Must Go On
What an intriguing start! So, can't wait to find out what Warminger thought the book was, and what it actually is, but I'm with Dean - it doesn't sound good. Poor Sam - I can imagine his reaction to hearing all that ruckus on the other end of the phone. Dean's in deep shite.....Jules

I really enjoyed this Louy. I liked the way you built up the tension and sustained it across the whole story with little pauses to regain breath. The first chapter's cliffie with the prospect of BBQ'd Dean was a real nail biter. I could see Dean pulling off the disguise- he can be a real chamelion when he wants to be (he wouldn't survive the "family business" otherwise). I really liked the way you built up the tension around the book and its significance. The snippets of Dean's losses- home, normal, Sam to Stanford, as the demon goes in for its attack on him were a definite touch of something in my eye and nicely played out. Nice touch with tricky Sam using big brother instinct to reach Dean after the attack! You've got the characters so well. The angst, brotherly fights and tensions, their underlying affection and inability to just talk to each other, while bobby rings true for his paternal attitude to the brothers and his ability to guide and support them when needed. I've got to go and read the rest in this series now- thanks for a great read, Alison

Excellently written, tight & suspenseful story -- Look forward to reading more!
Author's Response: Thanks Ash, I always get such a buzz when someone starts to read an old story and this one was my very first ever attempt at writing anything, so I'm very glad it worked for you. And thanks for the rating. XX louy

Oh my... 'bruce all mighty'... what an ending! That little scene with Bobby on the graveyard was great, and I loved this one in particular: "Well, John Winchester, now you’ve got work to do." It doesn't get better than that. Well, just thought I'd stop by to tell you that, so you wouldn't think I dropped out after the first chapter. Trust me, you just don't drop out of a story of this quality. Girl, you got real talent, take good care of it:) Looking forward to read that sequel of yours when I have time. Anita:)
Author's Response: Anita, this is another fantastic review from you, thank you so much...and I'm very glad you enjoyed this story. It was my first attempt, and every time I read it now, I see so many mistakes... so hopefully the sequel will be better. Thanks again Anita and you'll be seeing me on your review page very soon..XLouy

Yup, blonds do have more fun (at least I like to think so..:) I'd loved to see Dean with the new look... Loved the way you brought us into this story, bulletbabe, within the first few paragraphs you've presented us for the tension between the characters. Gotta say I love stories involving Bobby, love how he interact with the boys. And they're in character all three of them (except from Dean's golden blond hair, lol). And the scene between Mr Warminger and "Mr Steiner" was great, you did it so well, like the change in character from "Mr Steiner" to hunter-mode-Dean. Or Bobby's slightly frustrated comment that he really can't see anything from where he's situated. Gonna throw myself around to read the next four chapters right now 'cause this story is great!!! Oh, by the way: I love your penname and your story behind it, awesome! Have to say I'm a little jealous, wish I could have earned a name like that, or at least had a cool story behind it. Anyway, off to the next chapter now, see ya!
Author's Response: Wow - Thank you for such a fantastic review. I'm very glad you enjoyed this first chapter, hope you enjoy the rest of it just as much...and I just checked out your bio page too... I'm so impressed by all the talented writers on this site but there is something about a writer who has the courage and ability to create something in another language that just fills me with awe...not sure I'd have the talent to do that! Thanks again for this great review Anybody, and I'll be checking out your stories...XLouy

Oh a sequel! I was all like what! but... but... whats wrong with dean! but now my fears of being on a cliff hanger that never ends has been laid to rest *Pheww*
Author's Response: Hehe Thanks for the review, Eternity, and I really hope you enjoy the sequel...I'm hoping to write a few more stories in this series at some point. Thanks for reading X Lou
Reviewer: Eternity12 (Signed) · Date: 09/01/08 09:57 PM · On: Chapter 4 Back in the fold
typical dean needing to ask if Sam was alright even though he's the one hurt *rolls eye* typical winchester, you've done a good job keeping true to the characters
Author's Response: Another great compliment. Staying true to the characters is the key, and the thing I find the hardest...so thanks for saying it worked for you...and thanks for taking the time to review every chapter, that's always fantastic to see. Thank you Eternity, you've put a big smile on my face today! X Louy

Dean NO! snap out of it! I absolutely loved the rock paper sisscors game and dean shoving his brother down "Dean you stupid ass!" lol humor, suspense, powerful fire demons! its all good
Author's Response: Very glad you're still enjoying this, as my first ever fic I would do a lot differently if I were to write it now...so I'm thrilled it's readable.
Reviewer: Eternity12 (Signed) · Date: 09/01/08 09:34 PM · On: Chapter 2 Fire of known origin
wow, that had me on the edge of my seat, I was like "AAAAHHHHHH Get out! get out! RUNNNN!!!!" to the screen, thank god no one else was here to see it lol this is fun to read!
Author's Response: Edge of your seat and screaming at the screen, huh...? lol... This is the best compliment in the world, thank you so much...
Reviewer: Eternity12 (Signed) · Date: 09/01/08 09:19 PM · On: Chapter 1 The Show Must Go On
holy crap... that was awesome! love the brotherly banter and dean's little jokes... "do blonds really have more fun?" lol... good cliffhanger ending I'm sure it had your readers biting their nails!
Author's Response: Thanks for the review Eternity, Dean with blond hair was pretty popular...mind you Dean with any colour hair is pretty popular..lol

Ah, so JOHN'S protecting the book... from a certain point of view. And you answered the "how many demons can the book trap" question... Okay, I really enjoyed this -- I like the angle you took and the fact that you created something that you can carry on through other hunts. I look forward to reading more and am thankful for having been introduced to your imagination. GS
Author's Response: I am blown away by your reviews Gaelic, I know I said it earlier but I never expected you to go to this much trouble...so thank you so much for that! I was hoping to be able to write at least a few more stories in this series and reviews like this are just the encouragement I need, so a huge thank you for that too... ...off to get my notebook and try to get the stupid smile off my face right now!
Reviewer: gaelicspirit (Signed) · Date: 08/01/08 04:46 PM · On: Chapter 4 Back in the fold
Yay Bobby! I love that man. And Warminger was one nasty demon -- the burning meat and gristle descriptions were very well done. Um... so to speak. Heh -- I crack myself up. Oh, I totally forgot to say earlier that I loved the BOC shout out with the "Fire of Unknown Origin" -- nice! Gotta read the end now... I'll work tonight... ;)
Author's Response: I do love my gore... And I do love Bobby. Never fully happy writing a story unless Bobby's in there somewhere, he's the surrogate dad to both those boys now, and a very good one. Looking forward to the promised season 3 episode where we all find out more about him...
Reviewer: gaelicspirit (Signed) · Date: 08/01/08 04:40 PM · On: Chapter 3 Book of Revalations
Oh so THIS is where Jacob is mentioned! I'm glad I read that other one first, now. It's like I had a sneek peak... And Dean didn't go with the the scissors this time, huh? Hee. Oh, and I love the Indiana Jones shout out about making this up as he goes along. Well, Indy/Han Solo... they both work. Okay, so this book thing... Did Jacob trapped the evil demon thingy before John, um, stopped him? Or was he going to use it to trap more demons? Or can it only trap this one? Or should I just keep reading and stop asking questions?? GS
Author's Response: Damn, you sure do ask a lot of questions...! I think because this one wasn't planned as such, there are one or two loose ends, but I hope they are all covered in the sequel and in the other stories in the series... ...my aim is to work the history of the idea and I do already have an outline for the sequel to 'Better to burn...' that will expand a lot on the whole 'Sanctified' thing. Gotta say I'm so glad (and slightly amazed) your still enjoying this Gaelic.
Reviewer: gaelicspirit (Signed) · Date: 08/01/08 04:32 PM · On: Chapter 2 Fire of known origin
Ah, so Season 3. I see that now. Okay, the whole book thing is trippy in a really good way. At first I was picturing The Book of Shadows from Charmed (yes, okay, fine, I saw an episode or two... hush), and then when Warminger touched it I squeeked! Truly hefty amounts of creepiness with the demon possessing the latex glove-snapping, women's perfum-sniffing, little fraction of a man... *blatantly ignores work to read on*
Author's Response: I'm laughing out loud... Not sure why so many of my stories have to contain freaky little weird people...lol. Didn't someone once say a true writer always holds the mirror up to themselves first...God, what does that say about me?...hehe Hope you didn't get into trouble at work although it would be appropriate payback...I've missed more than one conference call because of your stories...
Reviewer: gaelicspirit (Signed) · Date: 08/01/08 04:08 PM · On: Chapter 1 The Show Must Go On
Okay, it's my habit with completed stories to devour and comment at the end, but I just had to say something here -- NICE beginning. I think I actually started this before -- or saw some comments about it because I remember shock and awe that you dyed Dean's hair blonde. And when you had him put on glasses, all I could think about was Alec in the Berrisford Agenda. Heh. When is this set? I am thinking Season 2, yeah? I love the comment that neither Bobby or Sam were willing to risk Dean even if he was willing to risk himself. And the "Winchester on a mission" walk was visual for me. I'm excited to read more!
Author's Response: I have to say I really didn't expect you to take the time to review from the beginning, that is such a treat for me... ...If I'm honest, when I started this story I had no idea what I was doing, just liked the idea of Dean going undercover and yep, Alex did come to mind, with those little glasses...hmmm...what's not to like..lol But as for the rest of the story, it kind of took it's own direction, so I am please it turned out readable. Thanks so much for the review...Gaelic, all reviews are such an encouragement but ones from people whose work I love just mean that little bit more.

Bullet. Do I need to say I loved it or have you got that from my pleasure soaked ramblings? OK I LOVED it! And next time you have Sam 'sit by the narrow bed and watch as his brother slept' can I be there too? Please I can't think of anything better! (Well maybe I can but I'm too delicate to mention it here!) Off to sample Better to burn out now! Bullet you're magnificant! bev x
Author's Response: You have no idea how happy I am that you liked this - my very first ever piece of writing...and thanks so much for reviewing every chapter. I always do that too...and it means so much. Thanks Bev!
