I'd appreciate any thoughts on my fanfic, To Hell and Back, posted in the fanfic posting section. Thanks very much.

Story Here.

I've just finished reading it and I must say I really enjoyed it. It's really descriptive. I particularly liked the part about drugs being smuggled in RPGs. Very good. Will there be more to follow?

I was kinda hoping for the rest, Sigma, I really liked it! As Chris said, very descriptive, very clever!

Hope you post the rest soon..I'll have to re-read the first part again to cement it in my mind!

**Was going to go and make some coffee, but now put off by Sigma's description!** :)

No no, I got Craig confused with Chris Bennett, a member of staff! Every time I see his sig, all I must do is read the first letter of his name.

I think i need sleep! :)

Regardless of who Chris is, or Craig is, thanks very much!
I've got a bit of the second chapter ready, i was gonna hold back on it but what the hell. I'll post it now.
Thanks all.

The opening with Bond in the cafe was perfect. I like the description of the oil, his distaste for the cigarrette. It is very descriptive in a way that plays on the senses, and that is very good.

I can't wait to see more!

Thanks for all the kind comments!
And thanks Xenobia, coming from the writer of HITFA (is that right?!) i must be doing something right. I've taken a step away from To Hell And Back 'cause i've had problems figuring out a certain party scene in Paris. In the meantime, i've written a bit of a movie style teaser for the piece, which i present below.
