Hello Schnujo is Late to Lannister! This review is given on behalf of "Game of Thrones.

*Reading* Oh no! This is a good, funny, and creative story. It's definitely reminiscent of the The Emperor's New Clothes. Great job!

Title and Description - Fabulous title and a good description that urged me to read on. I was surprised though that you had "Contest entry" and "Other" listed in your genres. You who always remind others not to do so. Oh, for shame, Jody! *Laugh* I'd change one to Drama and one to another genre that fits. (I can't remember them all right now.) Maybe Fantasy. You'll find one. *Wink*

The Storyline/Plot - A Duke who is not the best good-looking Duke, wants to fool his hoped-to-be bride, by getting a painting commissioned of a better-looking him, to send to her. Two scammers talk him into hiring someone who only those who are pure of heart will be able to see the true beauty of the painting. The rest will see only a mess. He goes along with this thinking that he'll own all the hopeful bride-to-be's land. You must read on to find out what happens.

The Characters - Great set of characters. We get to know the Duke's greed, and conniving self, as he meets up with two characters who are just as greedy and conniving as he.

The Setting - You do a good job at setting. The reader is easily able to envision each scene as we read.

What I Liked Best - The comedic quality of the story while teaching a good, moral lesson. Greed and dishonesty will get you nowhere good. It only opens you up to the same type of people.

Thank you so much for sharing your story with us. I enjoyed it.

*Heart* Tracey
