This was a beautiful story.
I had a hard time not laughing at Rodney on an undercover mission but - oh- was that a stroke of genius. I love how you characterized him.

Fantastic AU! Thought I had read all yours stories, but,huh, found this one..just yesterday! Still loving my SGA, after all these years...never tire from my faves show, still. Though this was AU, you managed to keep the characters in canon..loved how you interwove the alchemy and sorcery inline with ancient tech. Loved your whole plotline...the Wraith collar restriciting John's mind, thoughts and powers..the Genii taking advantage of that and McKay, in all his inept glory, saving John...Just loved it all...not sure you still write, still get reviews..but I hope you do...thanks for the great read!

Really, really loved this story. I'm new to the fandom, but now I know an author to follow!
Thanks :)

This was the first SGA fic I ever read and it's still my favorite. Amazing story.

Brilliant AU! I thoroughly enjoyed this, very well written and your character development is fantastic. Thank you for posting

What a great story. I always enjoy reading your stories and this one was no exception. It was so well thought out and well written. I liked how intense and captivating it was. You whumped John so well and so thoroughly but it wasn't gratuitous. I also liked how you didn't magically heal him from the traumas he endured and that he's still struggling to cope. This AU was awesome for its settings,its character development,and its storyline. Well done. Good on ya. Cheers! }:O

Brilliant. Just brilliant. Yes, it's an AU, but you managed to keep everyone in Character. YAY! Rodney is Rodney. YAY! John, while damaged, is John and etc., etc, etc. *throws confetti* Wonderful!

When I started reading, I was concerned that this would end up, well, weird. But found myself entranced with the world you created here. I've read this story several times now and I would dearly LOVE to read so much more of this AU universe you have created. More, PLEASE!

Absolutely fantastic and haunting. I wasn't sure what to expect when I started this story but I loved it. The characters were so familiar and different. Teyla and the spirits were beautiful. And Ronon and John not needing words but using them all the same. Rodney was himself but gentle and real with Sheppard. This was lovely. Thank you.

I discovered this story yesterday, and finished it today, to the detriment of all sorts of other obligations... very, very well done. The essence of the folks we know and love, translated and re-set into an extensively realized world. I hope you're still writing somewhere, even if not here or not Atlantis. You're good, IMHO. Thank you for a great read.

This is brilliant. intriguing, painful, captivating. loved reading every word of it.

interesting story. I didn't care for it in the beginning but I became hooked. I love how it ended. the journey is never really over. Keep writing, I REALLY enjoyed this story!

Wow, this has got to be the weirdest AU I have I ever read. I LIKE IT! :). Thanks for a good read

Good story, good AU, good handle on the team, good everything! I very much enjoyed your story (I really like that last scene of Ronon & John talking about not being able to forget) and I know writing a sequel or not is your choice but I for one would LOVE to read it if you do.

Incredible story. I really liked your AU and your ideas. It was different and interesting and I found myself totally captivated until the very end. Thank you so much for writing it.
