Ow. Could not stand this story. It was consistent enough that it might have been deliberate, but that doesn’t stop the writing from being kind of terrible.

Another one that’s not very good, but I kind of like it. Reminds me a bit of one of the characters in the Lunaverse stories. This is not one I’d recommend, but I don’t think reading it would become a major regret. I did enjoy the idea of an alicorn who hides his alicorn status because it causes him trouble since he doesn’t have any special powers.
Far From The Tree by Aquaman

A pretty good story. I rambles a little, gets a bit abstract in places, but gets the point across. Quality is of a decent level, but I’m not sure it fits in the spirit of the contest. It’s a nicely executed story where the contest concept is kind of to the side of things. Still, certainly worth a read.

Eh, not bad I guess. Left me feeling underwhelmed. Same basic idea as In Times Of Need, but not nearly as interesting. Lacks a plot for one.
The Third Alicorn by monokeras

Mythic, and very well done. This is in the top tier of the contest stories. A creation story and an end of the world story. Recommended for anyone who enjoys the more mythic side of things.
As always, The Big Master Review List is here: { THE MASTER LIST }
If you know of a text-format reviewer I'm not keeping track of, please let me know and I'll see if they meet the criteria to be assimilated into the list.
If you are an author who wants a more detailed review of a story I've covered feel free to message me. My reviews tend to be fairly light, mostly just reactions to a story right after reading it. I am happy to give a more careful read and reply to anyone who wants more precision and/or feedback.
