Ok, the absolute coolest thing about this story is the "bigger picture". The themes of tolerance and forgiveness are just...powerful, and the portrayal of Voldemort as a minor (and kind of comically incompetent) inconvenience is fantastic. Everything about this story just kind of generally rules and now we're close to the end and I could just BURST with excitement.
Looking forward, as always, to more,
Wooster

I am absolutely in love with this story. Again, I am thrilled with the quality of work coming from this site. I know it will be finished, but do not rush it. i know it is going to be soon, but do not compromise the quality of the work.

The end of this chapter was down right awe inspiring. Definitely a bit deeper than the normal tone of the story. It also may have been some of the best stuff you've ever written. Hell, it may be the best bit of fan fiction I've ever seen. You have truly set a new high water mark, thank you.

The rest of the wizarding world may be humbled by Harry, but I am humbled by your writing. This chapter contained some beautiful things; words that touch the mind and touch the heart. For that, I salute you.

*Whoa.*
A work of art, from beginning to end.
And it's the *middle* of a three-part chapter.
We find that even a Potions Master that can give Dracula fear-lessons is vulnerable to a charm offensive, that Lucius Malfoy is well on his way to being both divorced and dead (and that's before the battle), that Narcissa has a clue, that even Hermione can lose in a logician's battle (but who would have expected her to lose to *Harry*, let alone lose three times?) that Percy has been apparently doing far more than simply being a git (taking a Mastery in the most esoteric of subjects while employed by a Ministry that wouldn't want you anywhere near it takes plumstones at least as large as Harry has been accused of having), that Molly Prewett Weasley apparently could have been a Borgia, etc.

What a great story. It just gets better and better. All the sub plots and the multiple characters are great. I really appreciate the way everything flows together. The way Harry is including so many different groups into the effort to destroy Voldemort and stop his destruction of the world and the lives of everyone and everything in it. Everyone who gets involved is improved by their association with Harry. The dragon ride was the icing on the cake. I love the dragon Gweyneth. She speaks for everyone and everything in the world. When Harry shared that image with everyone in the library it spoke to their hearts that they are not alone in this world. That was really profound. Thanks so much for writing. I can't wait for the final piece. This has been well worth the wait. Thanks again. pms

Great story.
Every time you are finishing a chapter, I copy all your chapters into a document, convert it to LIT (Microsoft format for the MS Reader), and I read the story again from the beginning.
I love this story, and it is one of my favorites.
Thank you for writing it.

Wow! Great chapter! I especially loved the dragonflight part. I also liked the bit with Dean managing to get Harry to admit he might just be a better wizard than Dean. <g> Thanks so much for posting this, and now I can't wait for more again!

Wow. Seriously, wow. Everything appears to building up, and it's looking good.
But the problem with having such huge chapters is that I can't remember the detailsof what happened at the beginning, so I can't comment on them!
Narcissa dressed as a common whore was hilarious! Not the sort of thing you expect, and yet it fits perfectly with the world you've created.
Ginny almost got her goal there - are you actually going to get the two together at all? Heck, I don't even care about details - just do a 'fade to black' (or as close as you can get in writing rather than video) - at least so we know that Harry can have elements of being a normal teenager!
And aside from a couple of errors - bolds missed on the Mmail headers a couple of times, I could see pretty much nothing wrong with the chapter linguistially. Good job Tim!

Good chapter. I never would have thought of supersonic dragons, much less interplanetary ones.
Just one nit (so that I can claim to offer concrit), how can one be at the head of a round table?
Looking forward to 10C!

Wow that was a beautiful written chapter. I enjoy the part of riding the queen dragon in outer space.

Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

WOW Oh WOW oh wow wow wow oh wow and WOW!

WOW... always, always!!, you manage to toss some element into your stories that turns everything on it's ear and makes your story better, brighter and more believable. So many parts of this were marvelous, the parts with Gwyneth were my favorite and the scene with Molly "That's what mothers do" ... absolutely spot on & priceless. Ginny's response was marvelous too.
Thanks Tim, I don't want to see it end... but I can't wait to see what happens next! And I'm looking forward to sitting down and reading straight through from start to finish one rainy weekend in the near future.

"The riders are back" ? A little Eragon influence there? No matter dragons are way cool !!!
Looking forward for the last chapter.

Tim...to this amazing piece of craftmanship, all I can say is I am in awe! Everything simply flows. From the mmails, to the ploting, to the intimate moments between characters; not one detail is mistimed or over done. When Harry is in the library and all of his allies at Hogwarts pledge to be at his side, I nearly slid from my chair to join them. Reading is a form of relaxation for me where I can loose myself from the stress of the day...your work allows that as well as creating a world where my own imagination is inspired! Bravo my friend! I await the final addition on pins and needles. Amanda

WOW, that is all I can really say. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed that part and how much I enjoy all your writing.
I can only hope and pray that you live a very long and happy life, and that you never get tired of giving such gifts as you do.
I absolutely love the HP books, but even more I love the fan fiction. It is simply wonderful, and as far as I am concerned, you are the stick the rest of the FF authors are measured against.
Well done, and thank you.
Shayne
