she was good, but not Tolkien's Eowyn. i agree with everything that has been sdaid about her been weaker. i really wanted to see her resolve to die. i was also disappointed that we KNEW Dernhelm was Eowyn as it owuld've been much more dramatic if we hadn't.<P>i didn't like the killing of the Witch King. it is one of the best written parts of the book and it has all been omitted apart from "do not come between the Nazgul and his prey." i really wanted to hear the Witch King's creepy assertation that her shrivelled mind would be revealed naked to the lidless eye.<P>however, she was likeable and i would trust her to save me
