  1. Not buying this. I doubt there was more than a few illiterate families in Denmark at the time. Every farm family was an integral part of the nearest village and the nearest church. Community is part of their culture. The country was highly literate in the 20th century and he would have been well versed in the Bible.

    Chapter 8

    The family situation with George is a mystery and it is very nicely introduced! I'm pretty sure there aren't any male university students left in UK by 1940, because the country fully mobilized for the war. Every young man was fighting, unless there was a really good reason to be ineligible for it.

    Enjoying this Chapter - you've been doing well.

    Chapter 5

    This is a great story premise. I'm concerned that 17 is a bit old. In WWII, a 17 year old would be viewed as pretty close to an adult, not a minor who needs protection and care. He would have to be 13-15 to get this kind of treatment. At 17, he could enlist in the armed forces and many his age (including foreigners) did so. Roald Dahl, a famous norwegian author, was an RAF pilot during the early part of the war.

    I really enjoyed the Danish, since I know some Norwegian it is very similar and I can enjoy a tale in both languages. Nice progression.
  6. I liked the style of language - eloquent.
  7. Good comments by @ColombusGuy there. I just reread Hammerhead and note that it wasn't finished, right near the climax. It might be better use of time to complete the prime story for the author's universe.

    This symbiotic element is so cool! Was not expecting the story to go in this direction. Also really enjoying the relationship with Garjah. So fun.

    Chapter 45

    This is such an enjoyable ride through history. Very eager to see what we know will happen in under 2 weeks and how this will affect our protagonist's fortunes.

    Chapter 28

    That was funny!

    Pretty cool. Really liked the wound treatment part.

    Present Day

    I thought the first chapter was trite and overwrought. Now, THIS chapter was interesting and different. The sanctuary issue provided the twist the story needed and the mate thing adds to it. Nice.

    Day 6.

    He's learning a lot about the world very quickly! I'm interested in how he might be able to bootstrap himself out of this precarious situation. I guess that is the interesting element of the story so far.

    Chapter 43

    After a binge of the entire Granger series, I'm finally starting to get these chapters in drips. How rich and enjoyable is the rich history (and pseudohistory) in these stories!

    Chapter 48

    So Jakun has cat penis barbs? Interesting!!?
  20. After following this so far, I've decided that I don't really care for this story and am no longer following. It never clicked with me and I found no joy in it. I'm enjoying @Yeoldebard's other works quite a bit. Guess you can't please all the people all the time! Good luck.

    Keeper

    Great dynamics going on here. Makes me want to keep reading.

    Chapter 46

    Interesting. Let's see next chapter if the pistol correctly discharged.

    This is such an enjoyable story. Talon is a great character who is at his best when he is being fun - it would be great to see that side of him again.

    Prologue

    This is a second time for me too. After Northern Exposure and 8 lengthy tales, I wanted to revisit where George started. This series has been superb!

    Chapter 39
