 Sabriel41 9/18/04 . chapter 1Sol
What to say beyond the fact that I'm already addicted? There's a sense of realism to this so painful, so very, very clear, that pulls the reader in right away. And characterization, as usual with your work, is strong as well - I especially liked how Hermione's mother retaliated; it's rare that they're written with backbone (or survival tactics). Conversely, your Bellatrix was perfect; coldly professional, yet a few steps off the deep end at the same time...
.
Yet one can't help but wonder what went wrong in the first place, especially as Tonks and Lupin let slip that Dumbledore was having people monitor her house... (As well, how Draco is going to be able to get anywhere *near* Hermione after this will definitely be interesting to read of..)
.
I look forward to future chapters; in the meanwhile, Cheers and Starry Nights...
