And It's Only Love reviewed by Lunacy and Cee

"A gut-wrenching journey of the heart that finds the warrior and bard on a quest to return a young boy, abducted years before by his father, to the mother who's been desperately searching for him ever since. The mission is one that opens up old wounds for them both recalling the children they themselves once gave up and the guilt they have yet to come to terms with - a very sophisticated, sensitive treatment of the characters" - Lunacy

"This is a poignant, moving story that is beautifully told. Recommended." - Cee

Faith reviewed by Lunacy

"Talk about hitting the mark dead center! This little piece does double duty, rather succinctly summarizing the Xena TV series and serving as a tribute to a couple of unforgettable characters who are fortunately quite capable of rising above the senseless quagmire they're so frequently immersed in these days. Perfect. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!" - Lunacy

First Date reviewed by Lunacy, Xenalicious and Bard Picks

"This is a wonderfully short, sweet story that blends with exquisite simplicity the uncertain innocence of "first time" romances with the confident touches of mature love." - Bard Picks

"Set in Amphipolis, this charming new tale has Xena taking her beloved bard on a "first date" with a little help from one playful thief, a beautiful night sky, and one very romantic setting. Wonderful! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!" - Lunacy

"How can a *guy*, no matter how sensitive and New Age he may be, write such excellent, poignant, funny, but most of all, like, right on Xena fan fiction? What is this world coming to? Should we start expecting the toilet seat to be lowered down as well? Lord! An excellent short story. A vignette really, but with enough feeling and wit in it to keep you more than satisfied. A characteristic of Kam’s body of work, wonderful Xena and Gabrielle characterizations, are present in full force. This is a tender story, a vision of the kind of future Xena and Gabrielle deserved to see together." - Xenalicious

The Gabrielle Effect reviewed by Lunacy

Act I | Act II | Act III

"A fanfic effort that would make for one TERRIFIC episode, this story manages to capture the essence of the TV characters in a comedy of errors that is also beautifully reminiscent of the type of humor that made this show such a favorite with fans.First-class writing and fabulous storytelling make this one a MUST READ! VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!" - Lunacy

In The Heart of the Siege reviewed by Cee

"Kamouraskan gives us a complicated plot that includes guessing games, possible betrayals, and the unpredictable behavior of a god or two. In addition to some great action, we also get a nice look at the changing relationship in the earlier years of the show. It's a well-told tale that would have made an excellent episode on the small screen. Recommended." - Cee

Judgment reviewed by Lunacy

"Every once in a while comes along a story that elevates fanfic beyond the level of entertainment. Featuring some of the most effective writing this bard has ever delivered, this tale casts a spell that will pull you in and then leave you feeling much of the same shock and horror the characters themselves end up immersed in. Definitely not one for the faint-hearted but certainly one for those who appreciate meaningful storytelling. DO NOT MISS!" - Lunacy

Sensitive Chats reviewed by Lunacy, cover by Calli Calli's creations

"A MUST READ for my fellow Gab fans, this lovely little tale has the warrior and bard staying at an inn where Gabrielle is doing her bard thing while the warrior scouts the place looking for some much-needed companionship for the evening. Little does the unsuspecting Xena know that her partner knows exactly what she's up to and isn't about to stand by while her luscious warrior cajoles with others! HUGE grin alert on this one folks! DO NOT MISS!" - Lunacy

Threads reviewed by Lunacy

"In the tradition of the episode BEEN THERE, DONE THAT Kamouraskan explores a world of possibilities for the warrior and bard as Xena finds herself willingly reliving the past over and over again in a desperate attempt to find happiness for her bard. A very emotional story with a PRICELESS ending that should particularly please one well-known fanfic faction :) HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!" -

The Writer

A maze. Who is the writer?

COLLABORATIONS:

As Good As It Gets with Lariel reviewed by Cee

"As Good As It Gets offers a unique twist on the Xena story. It features Xena and Gabrielle as modern day office employees. The story is told with the same cast of characters from the series, including Darphus, Borias, and Callisto as they challenge each other in the cutthroat world of office politics. Told in a very tongue-in-cheek style, there are some very funny moments, including the funniest character development for Perdicus I've ever read. It's definitely recommended." - Cee

A Fan's Nightmare written with Murphy

Amy Murphy had a horrible nightmare and passed it onto me.

The Last Conqueror written with Lariel

The Empire is crumbling and a struggle for power is about to begin. Dark forces are converging, and crucial choices have to be made. But which choice is the right one? And what difference can a streetsmart kid from Corinth and an insane prisoner make anyway, against forces which draw their power from the evil of the earth?

The Muses Retreat written with Lariel reviewed by Gabwhackers

"This spoof of fan fiction mailing lists and the bards and ego strokers that frequent them, is right on the money. A lurker on many lists, I’ve seen this sort of thing first hand, and the treatment given by Kamouraskan and Lariel was enough to have me spitting coke at my monitor, not in jeering, but in laughter. With a wacky, larger than life cast of characters... Xena and Gabrielle’s stay at the Muses Retreat, as well as their bet to see who could get kicked out first, is told with fine comedic skill. I mean, Xena reciting poetry is not something to be missed." - Gabwhackers

Old Warriors Never Die, They Just.. written with Lariel and Verrath

These bards all went to Brighton Beach and all you get is a X+G comedy? Definitely 'post fin.'

Tender Mercies written with Lariel reviewed by Cee

"Tender Mercies offers a us very funny look at a very delicate problem. And things get worse before they get better. This one comes with a definite Spew Alert for your keyboard." - Cee
