Reactions and Reviews

Every monster has a mommy. Meet Ellen Lash, mother of Cascade's most infamous psychopath, who believes her son is alive and well -- within the body of one long-haired anthropologist. My favorite story by one of my favorite authors (who needs to write more ~grin~). This is one of those stories I go back quite often, if only to reread favorite scenes, like the hospital scene (aww!) or the humorous moments ("Rushmore" ~snerk~)...(Actually, go read everything by Iris!) [1]

Gripping story and after you read it, you may find that you have more sympathy for David Lash than you ever had. A deep story, somewhat intense, but highly recommended. If you've had an opportunity to watch Cypher, this is a don't-miss-it story. Iris has a special touch with these characters. I enjoy the inside peeks she gives us to their thoughts and personalities. I hope that she continues to entertain us fanfic folks for a long time.[2]

Very good. To every monster, their Frankenstein. As someone else said, it makes you feel sorry for David Lash.

Addendum: this story was nominated in the 2000 Cascade Times Awards in the Dramatic category. Also, the hospital scene was nominated in the "best comfort scene" category.

Additional Addendum: Winner of favourite Drama story in the 2001 Cascade Times Awards.[3]
