I love your story and I especially love novels as it allows one to be drawn into a marvellous tale of wonder, and achieving a most satisfactory conclusion whilst looking forward to their next adventure.
Your reveal of Amber that eventually pulls her into the circle was very cool!
All your Circle characters have developed nicely and I for one have joined the outer circle….
I find myself Invested as an avid reader to now being emotionally tied into sending my own little bonding thread to the members of the circle and adding my own will to aide during the times of trial, especially when kicking Quentin’s proverbial butt. Way to go Grace! 😊
Oh my God's. This sucked me in and held me for a whole day. So good. So engaging. So smokin' hot. Thank you for a day well wasted. Outstanding read.
Yes! Loved the last series, can't wait to start this entry! 28 pages? WOOT! (I never say that but I'm excited, and it felt fitting)
Very nice. I do very much prefer the balance between story and sex in this section -- it reads better and there is frankly more interesting content. (Not that I don't love erotic description -- this is Literotica, after all -- but good character and plot development is frankly more interesting and compelling and it heightens to power of any erotica.) I was kinda lukewarm about the first section, but this one is absolutely marvelous.
Excellent story. You were correct the reduced emphasis on sex makes for a much better read. Can't wait for Part 3.
And just where is the beginning of book three? the first two were very entertaining, but don't leave us hanging without book three. CajunBear
Great so far, 5/5. When will the next chapter be published? It was a very long wait for this one, but it was a nice improvement.
I’m so very glad you’ve both picked up the pace of this story and dialled back the sex a bit in favour of the plot advancing. Tbh I really enjoyed this, it moved along at a decent pace, although I’m not entirely sure why Gwydion was part of the story, maybe I missed her vital part of the plot - other than to underline the “Witches are bad news” line. In other news, I’m also chuffed that there aren’t any serious grammatical errors to trip over, I know some readers don’t care about them, but a lot of us do, so thanks to whoever does your proofreading and/or editing, they’ve done a really good job.
Thank you also for uploading this as a single piece; personally that’s infinitely preferable to how you uploaded the first book, please consider repeating this format when you’ve written the third part.
Many thanks for writing and posting here on Lit, regards Ppfzz.
I find your take on this genra very intersting!!! I love well thought through world building.
I have skipped the whole story to let you know early on I am glad to have this story line back and look forward to reading it. THANKYOU for continuing to create. Comments to follow
I love your two stories in this series! I really enjoy reading your writing and I’m eagerly awaiting the next chapter. Keep up the good work!
My mind is blown!! What a fantastic story. You are really talented. Please keep it coming
You know, if you cleaned up all the IP violations, you could actually sell this
Wow, what a story. I hope you post the next bool quickly. I enjoyed this story and gave it a 5star rating. Keep up the exellent writing
A few plot holes and unbelievable character behavior but still a very entertaining read. Can’t wait for the next.
This Story! I agree on the 5pages of sex 1page of plot issue, only made it two pages into this one before clicking back here... Thanks! Keep it up.
Honestly, I really wanted to like this,but Amber is so insanely unlikeable that by extension everyone else becomes unlikeable with how they cater to her.
I can't imagine anyone on earth glossing over their lover almost letting their other lover die over pettiness and being.. fine with it?
The plot was pretty decent, world was good, every interaction without amber was fun, but it just got.. grating?
Gawd I love all those sneaky hobbit references. Each one was so well timed that they all made me laugh. Great story, can't wait for the conclusion!
Great story. Couldn’t stop reading it. Really looking forward to book 3. You have great talents in story telling & eroticism.
Thank you for this great series. I am brand new to sci-fi fantasy and I absolutely love your story and story telling. I might even have to read Lord of the Rings now! Thank you for sharing your gift with us. I eagerly anticipate the next instalment.
Wow Estcher I loved book 1 but book 2 was twice as good now you’ve got a big job making book 3 three times as good but if I had to put money on it I’d back you all day long you have a real talent for making your characters lovable and real now that is not as easy as it sounds.
I’m looking forward to book 3 asap please.
Wow! Just WOW!! LOVE this series and am eagerly awaiting the next installment.
It is exceedingly rare for me to find a story, let alone on Literotica, that forces me to read it through to the end. This series has been one of those few.
Please continue this work. If you should ever formally publish it, I'd happily pay for it!
Commenting from the testing section of the story. Do the heroes of this story ever stop being passive idiots. Literal morons who do nothing to defend themselves without being saved by God's and demigods? I really tried to give this a chance, but good lord how many times are they going to let people try over and over to murder them without responding. Done with this story
Thank you for the glorious entertainment!!! Twists and turns, intrigue, and innuendo it is all GREAT!! I will be eagerly awaiting Book III.
Excellent work...I don't know how I missed it so many days... eagerly awaiting the next installment...keep up the great work...
What a fun series! I can't wait to read more adventures of the Fellowship of the Cock Ring! Keep up the great work.
*scraped, not scrapped.
Regardless this is a super fun read. Thank you so much.
I think this story just went supernova it was absolutely spectacular it took me several hours just to finish reading this story totally amazing story I LOVED IT!!!!
I think you may have blown me away with this story very creative writing keep it up!!!
Fellowship of the cock ring? It was a great story then got that Lord of The Rings silliness at the end. Still a great story, aaaaand will be a great "Trilogy". So at least a five star rating. I loved it.
awesome! loved this second installment! such a great imagination, you have. wonderful character development. Looking forward to the third part.....though I know you're taking a break. Congratulations, by the way, on this story winning a contest. well-deserved!
It’s been a pleasure to be immersed in this fantasy. Is book 3 available anywhere? Do you have a patreon account?
Thoroughly enjoyed the story, 5*.
My tiniest bit of what I hope is constructive criticism - I found myself drawn out of the story more then a few times where *large numbers* involving *important events* were described, as they just didn't make sense. Two examples - 500 gnomes being all that remains is a heavy impact and makes sense given their difficulties breeding, but at the same time there's no way 500 slaves being freed brings a city of 300,000 to a halt, never mind the broader geographical region. At Yanwey crater, 4 million lives are lost in a 6 mile crater, either putting the population density significantly higher than Tokyo, or expecting "animals of all kinds, trees, flowers, insects" to be counted as lives, stripping the number of meaning.
They are not major issues, and overall do not detract from how much I generally enjoyed the story. They are just little speed bumps that I think, if smoothed out, would elevate the tale even further. Anyway, I'm very much looking forward to book 3!
A long story revisited can be a mammoth task trying to fix and rewrite. So well done Estcher and thanks. I love your characters. The way you have created the family feel. The interaction between them all kept me reading for hours. I could not stop reading. Now reading your other ones. I like your style too Estcher. Please keep it going and letting yourself evolve as a wonderful storyteller. The sex is imaginative and makes one consider it.....
Lots of times the old tropes get shopworn. You've found new twists and I am anjoying this hugely - and looking forward to your new volume next!
I got interrupted while I was reading this and couldn't convince myself it was worth continuing. I gave it a three out of mercy.
It was a very interesting take on hero's and villains. Very enjoyable!!!!
