The Circles: Book 1: The Triumph of The Shadow

Hi, Angmar and Elfhild!
Great story you have here! And now you posted one of my favorite chapters: Riders on the Winds. It is really breathtaking. I love the nazgul song – written entirely in the Black Speech, no less, and the bickering of the nervous nazgul, and the confrontation with Glorfindel…And it is wonderful that you have included the maps – so much easier to follow the course of the battle.
My best wishes, Aganaphel

Thank you for reading and your very kind words. This chapter might be one of the most exciting, action-packed ones of the battle series, with fighting on the ground and in the air. I have been a wargamer for many years and I could never plan a battle without consulting maps. Why should the reader struggle through reading about a battle and not be able to visualize the terrain and the progress of the action? I am glad the maps helped you.
"The Song of Black Shadow" is one of many I have written and translated into Black Speech dialects. There will be more in the future.
And, yes, the "Nine Nervous Nazgûl" will be back. *grins*

Another one of my most favorite chapters - with raging battle and nervous nazgul.
This spell is wonderful:
The dark is stronger than the light;
The night is quicker than the day.
Take comfort in ice and sorrow,
Safety in a cloak of shadow.
And I loved the vision Rut had. How I wish to read more about it!
Cheers, Aganaphel

Aganaphel,
The Nazgul had a lot to be nervous about in that battle, and something tells me they will have more in the future. I very much enjoy writing battle scenes, and only wish I had more opportunities to include them in stories.
The spell? There are many more in store for the future.
Thank you for reading.
Angmar
