Review of By Stars' Light by Erfan
By Stars' Light by Erfan Starled
I want to thank
erfanstarled for writing my Ardor in August request. She took the idea of "the past is a beautiful, cruel country" and wrote an epic tale of the flight of the Noldor from Finrod's point of view, full of the sadness and beautiful language of the Silm. The story begins at the ending, in Sauron's dungeons where Beren, Finrod and his lover Calyaro await the werewolf. From there, it jumps back in time to the battle of Alqualonde, which changes the main characters forever. Through most of the story, Finrod struggles with his anger towards the Feanorians, directed often at Feanor's minstrel, Calyaro. Finrod must forgive and Calyaro must atone through love. This personal story plays out over a long stretch of time with the backdrop of the great events of the Silmarillion.
