Summary
From a one-time distributor, Agent With Style:
In Gondor, two men's names stand out as bastions of bravery -- Boromir and Faramir. Brothers in blood as well as brothers in arms, these men grew up together, sharing childhood lives and adult consequences. Written by Susan Bartholomew, the gen stories in this zine range from when Faramir and Boromir were children to the ends of their lives, wrapping in and around the movies to show what happened where the camera wasn't.
