Last Updated 12 - 3 - 00			If you have gone to an older site’s fan fic section, they may have made reference to this site. Actually, if you go to any old site, you may have found a reference here. Why? Well, it’s quite simply an amazing site. Like the past two sites, we have original art. Why can’t other sites do this? I would, but I can’t draw all that great and don’t have a scanner. Too bad. Anyway, another “first impression” is that it was last updated November 12th. Don’t be fooled, though, this site’s glory days are over. The last update before this was August 22nd. Anyway, it’s a fairly nice design. Well that may be rather mellow. It’s actually a great design. Simplistic, but works quite well. Now then, onto everything else. Content. First of all, if you are looking at game help on OoT or Majora’s Mask, don’t go here. There is none. And the info on the other games aren’t great either. Basically, there is a text version of the manual, game genie codes, and some type of walkthrough on each game. But there is a bonus for any CD-i owners: a walkthrough for The Wand of Gamelon. Something practically no other site has ever bothered to do. And there’s a decent interactive section. A small poll, message board, chat room, humor, and a wish list pepper this section. Again, not too bad. And then there’s a large number of links. There’s a large collection of fan art with over 200 submissions, along with screenshots too. Yet the real meat of this site is the fan fiction. Quite simply, there are more fan fictions of every type here than anywhere else. I can’t be sure of it, but it sure looks like it. Nicely categorized, too, into 6 categories. Anyway, like I said, there are tons. If you enjoy reading fan fics, then come here by all means. Tons of great stories that I have not found anywhere else. Another thing I should note is that the webmaster of this site is a fan fic author, and probably the most respected one at that. She has wrote quite a few long and impressive stories, and is certainly worth the reading. Also on her site are some information on the geography and characters she uses. If you’ve read her stories, you might as well come here. Not only will you find all of her works, but also the background information behind them. Very nice. So how do I conclude this conflicting review? There are bad points, to be sure. Quite a few broken links for one. Lack of information as well. But many, many fan fics. And other stuff as well. It also feels like a good site. A lot of effort seemed to be put in here, and it is well designed. One interesting note is the graphical tour of the North Castle. The Castle, not the site. It looks wonderful and I recommend you at least see it once. Rather neat, I think. There is dedication here. She says she does not want this site to die, and I have to believe her. It won’t die. There may not be much done to it, but it will always be updated. So go there. Enjoy it. It’s worth it. The Good: Fan fics, fan art, nice layout, graphical tour The Bad: Little game info, barely updated anymore Rating - 74%
