  2. Love the elvish. 🙂 Am a little sad that Excalibur didn’t win, but this has just made me want to go and read Chronicles of Narnia (probably am the only one who hasn’t).

  4. Congratulations to Rhindon! (I didn’t know that Peter’s sword had a name… Whoops. I’m listened to the Chronicles of Narnia right now and I’m on “The Horse and His Boy.” I’ll have to listen for Rhindon’s name is one of the later books.)
    Great post, too! I loved reading some Elvish.

    • He does, indeed! Rhindon is a cool name to say, too. I didn’t know his sword had a name until this Award.
      Thank you, Christine, I’m so glad you liked this post! ^_^

  10. Thank you Arwen, for gracing us with your presence and beautiful words. I can see that Elrond has taught you well in the judgement of blades for Rhindon would have been a worthy blade for any Middle Earth warrior!

  15. YAY, IT’S ARWEN!!! I loved seeing her present the award. 😀 And all the Elvish was lovely to read.

    Congratulations to Rhindon! (No idea Peter’s sword had a name, to be honest, but it’s pretty frabjous. ^_^) I was rooting for Susan’s bow, but Rhindon is a worthy winner.

    Can hardly wait for next year’s awards!

    • Thank you, Mary! I was thrilled to have Arwen on the blog!
      I had no idea Peter’s sword had a name until this event, either. ^_^ Maybe next year Susan’s bow will take the lead? I can’t wait to find out! There will be new presenters for the awards too, so I’m eager to find out who I’ll have next year on this blog!
