    I just read all nine chapters and I wanted to say that I love this story! Can't wait to read the next chapter. I think you've done well with the characterizations. Please update as soon as your muse allows.

    Woohoo! Update! :) I like how Katara doesn't make it easy for Zuko...that is, she doesn't forgive him right away, but still leaves it a possibility. Nice :)The imagery was particularly beautiful.

    ZOMG!!! Why did it have to end there??!?!?!?!?!? I am loving this story, as I loved cold fire as well. I hope that you update soon, as you are one of the best authors I have had the pleasure of reading

    Before I get into the meat of the review, I think I should mention that I began reading “Kiss Of Fire” before this story, so perhaps my expectations were a little misplaced.

    Since this is supposed to be a prequel to KoF, I had expected it to deal with the beginning of Katara and Zuko’s relationship and end shortly after the Battle Of Sozin (is it supposed to be Sozin the Fire Lord or Sozun the city; I’m confused) and Katara’s death, while KoF dealt with her reincarnation. In this respect I was disappointed since it doesn’t really convince me that Zuko and Katara would ever have the intense relationship detailed in KoF. The story just doesn’t get that far and makes it seem like Katara would be unlikely to ever trust Zuko again, regardless of his intentions. It’s possible this relationship would form sometime in the 4 remaining months before the Battle Of Sozin, but I was expecting it to happen during the story.

    What I did get was a simply AU story where Zuko and Iroh join the Aang Gang instead of remaining separate. This part was done very well; characterizations were accurate and the new scenes were plausible alternated to those in the actual show. I loved the stuff with Toph and Zuko (earthbending, her showing up at the teashop, etc). In fact, this felt more like a Zutoph(?)/Kataang story than a Zutara one. Hopefully, you won’t be offended by that statement because none was intended. Zutoph is a pairing you don’t see very often and one I didn’t even consider from the normal show canon, but the scenes Toph and Zuko share in this story make me believe it could happen in that universe.

    The only other thing I should mention is that Azula did not strike Iroh with lightning; she used a small blue-flame blast. The only person she actually hit with lightning was Aang in “Crossroads of Destiny”. A small nitpick that didn’t affect my opinion of the story at all.

    Overall, this is a very well written AU Avatar story. It has a very intelligent and authentic feel to it. However, for me, it’s better if it is kept separate from “Kiss Of Fire” because it feels unfinished otherwise (unless it is??).

    ++++/5

    *pats Spleef on the back* I'm here and I'm reading this. I'm interested in seeing where you go with this. The slow build is killing me and I'm popping onto the front page all the time to see if you've updated this.

    Keep up the hard work. It is appreciated.
