Great Minds

I'm relatively new to Criminal Minds. I've only seen the first couple of seasons. Nevertheless, I felt that the author captured the characters I'm coming to love very well. I could especially picture Garcia.
An interesting, well crafted plot.
One tiny niggle - in the synopsis it should surely be 'an UNexpected turn of events'. A good proofreader is worth their weight in gold. Nobody can proof their own work, because you read what you expect to be there, rather than what actually is. I know this all too well from personal experience.

Truly lovely story

I have been a fan of the Neverending Story since it first came out, and was thrilled to see it inspired fanfiction. It has taken me a while to read this story as I've had a lot of reading to do for work, and proofing for a friend, but I've enjoyed coming back to it and picking up on Atreyu and Adair's adventures whenever I have a spare few minutes. The characters are well rounded and credible, both those from the original - I've always adored Falcor - and the Original Characters created by the writer. The story unfolds beautifully, with plenty of action, intrigue and - of course - romance. The ending was very satisfying and I didn't see the resolution coming in quite the way it did.
As an ex-English teacher, I was jarred a few times by minor errors - such as 'there' when it should have been 'their'. Nothing a good beta reader couldn't put right. [I know full well as a writer myself that you cannot proof your own work. You read what you expect to see, rather than what is there.] On the other hand, it was well crafted. I like the different typefaces for the human world and Fantasia.
Overall, a wonderful tale that fans of the book and/or film will surely enjoy.
