I love this story.
I first found it on Fanfiction.net and then when I found your personal website link, I followed it over here and finished the story.
Ever since, I come back and re-read it just to experience the excellent story once again. (I think I have re-read it 3 or 4 times now)
Yes, there are parts that don't make sense. Yes there are parts that could be better. But, overall the story is an amazing piece of writing and I am glad that you wrote and finished it.
Thank you very much!

Rachel

This story truly had it all--humour, romance, angst, violence, intrigue, suspense--the works, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I loved your final battle with all the booby traps and stuff. The only thing missing was a 9mm pistol to blow Voldemort's head off with...but the team Cruciatus was good too.

I was a bit worried about Neville, but you gave that closure. Also, by putting Bellatrix's magic in Snape's control, you neutralised her anyway. As for Narcissa...cool!

I never had any use for Pansy Parkinson--she's a simpering idiot.

I must confess that I did work out the puzzle in Hermione's M-mail concerning "outing" Draco, even though I had no doubt that you'd reveal it later. I love Cryptograms and even play them on my iPhone. The first words I solved were easy: Draco, Ginny. After that, it was a lark.

Bravo!

Regardless of how you feel about certain parts of this story, I can honestly say that of my rather extensive hp fanfiction addiction (surfing stories since early 2002), this is undoubtedly one of the absolute best! Yes, your writing style did change as you went along, but so did JKR's between her books, even if only slightly. I hadn't really noticed the difference until you mentioned it in your notes. Anyways, it;s incredible and I sincerely hope you keep up the great work.

James

Ryan Crys growled to himself as he Apparated to his nearest contact’s house. If the stupid kid thought that a silly light spell was going to stop him making a report, he dumber than he looked. Still, at least his acting skills had allowed him to escape to make his report.

He hadn’t had a bad day like this in years. Not since Lucius had hired him to run the Butterbeer plant. It was a licence to mint money, and he’d been raking it in. He’d even been honest, for a change, and not skimmed off the top. Admittedly, Lucius had pointed out that the Dark Lord disliked people who tried to defraud him, and tended to deal with it personally. Being cursed to death wasn’t high on his list of things to do.

He’d been a little surprised when his main door had been blown open; it was one of the downsides of the silencing charms that were all over the building. Making Butterbeer on an industrial scale was a very loud and smelly business.

"Mr Crys?" his contact, Matthew Viridian

Interesting way of think of your possible friends

From: The Wizarding World’s RELUCTANT saviour
How about instead From: The Wizarding World's MODEST saviour reason being that he realizes he has to save them but he isn't being arrogant or overcondfident about it

You could say what Harry likes best about this relationship is the simple acts of affection between himself and Ginny that's what I've found out the most about this chapter and the story itself

dan26 posted a comment on Sunday 13th December 2009 5:16am

You know incedentally Giiny's siblings only have themselfs to blame because they made harry treat Ginny like another sibling which leads to getting to know her as a person then as a girl and finally as a non sibling

Now, that is my idea of Dragons! :D

You should write an offshoot of this story, where Harry, Fred, Geroge, Lavender, Parvati, and Blaise have a Dragons Den type thing. It would be funny...

I love your story, but I wanted to point out a small inconsistency. You have this beginning several weeks before Halloween in Harry's sixth year. (the ball is supposed to be for Halloween). But later you talk about how Sirius was gone for months before he was able to get back. As the Dept of Mysteries happened in June, that doesn't seem to fit. Also, you have Blaise mention that she has been training in the DA (enough to take down Snape). As she wasn't a member in fifth year, that can mean she has only been a memeber for at most a couple of weeks. That doesn't seem like enough time to learn that much. Perhaps it would be better to have the ball be a Valentine's dance? That would allow for plenty of time, and shouldn't be too hard of a fix.

Once again something you have written, which you are then complaining about, inspires and delights. I began reading fan fiction almost 3 years ago now and it was reading things like this that made me feel like I should give something back and write something myself. This is, I believe, the fourth time I have read this fic and honestly it is still as good as the first time I read it. I look forward to any future updates on any of your fics and wish you good luck and happy writing (especially with NaNo WriMo in a few days).

Great story. But now I can't get the image of Neville and a bunch of kids running towards messed up ladies (how I see banshees) with a bunch of screaming babies in picnic baskets out of my head. Thank you. Could be because its 5.30 am and I have classes early tomorrow...

Fully agree with your note about the very different styles and tones that your writing took on from chapter to chapter. That said, each facet in turn was used well. I'm quite partial to the scenes wih dragons as they remind me a lot of Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern. Great piece and I hope you don't mind me comparing you to some of the best fantasy fiction I've ever read! Its sad that you won't be doing more H/G (sorry heavily biased) but I can see where you're coming from.

I'd also like to say you got some hilarious art for this story and I hope you don't mind if I borrow those for Facebook or somesuch. Are they yours? Would like to give proper credit. Great work and I really enjoyed your story!

Errr isn't Blaise a guy? Aside from my nitpicking, everything else was soooooooo funny! You really made my day!

juice14 posted a comment on Wednesday 9th September 2009 8:33pm

You've got a wicked sense of humour! That's tempered with one of the best bits of Ginny I've seen. Her speech about Harry's inner strength and her own demons making her stronger... Great!

Dear lord, I love this almost more than the books... and I've re-read it almost as many times as well. This is one of the best, most believable, most well-developed, and most HILARIOUS fanfictions I've EVER read - and I have read A LOT. In this one, there are only the very slight, occasional grammar errors (unlike some fics I've read), witticisms that made me literally laugh out loud, and an intricately constructed and completely thought out plot line - not to mention the passionate romance combined with your devastating cliff-hangers that kept me reading until I was finished with the whole story (at around five a.m. on a weekday). I have no regrets. Thank you so, so much for creating this beautifully constructed fanfiction masterpiece, making the characters so danged funny, and just for writing such an utterly lovely story.
