| deitarion/SSokolow 2008-08-13 ch 9, | abuseI never thought I'd see the day when someone managed to write a "Lucius isn't really as bad as he's shown" story that I could accept. Bravo! Oh, and I forgot to mention before, but this is also the first decent "Harry in America" story I've read... probably because you recognized the importance of keeping the fantasy/mystic/magical atmosphere properly dominant when you translated part of the setting to the U.S. |
| Owl344 2008-07-24 ch 7, | abuseSorry I haven't reviewed before now, but I was having huge amounts of trouble with getting the reviews through. I assure you that writing a review three, four times and having it *still* not work doesn't do much for your inclination to write reviews. Also, the Scout oath touched a cord in me (I'm a Girl Guide. Pathfinder, to be precise). Other than that: Good story. I like Lucius under the Imperius, though I thought it was from his Father, not Narcissa! Err...you may want to work on your concealing your plot points, working out that he was under some kind of mind control and was angry at Arthur and Molly for not having realized it wasn't very difficult. Also, I like Harry; he's fun. I also enjoy your representation of Percy. |
| Erin06 2008-06-17 ch 9, | abuseGreat series! I really like that Lookin' For Trouble song! Btw, has a name for the boys' band been picked out yet? |
| ReflectionsOfReality 2008-06-12 ch 3, | abuseI don't know if any one has mentioned this to you but steak and kidney is not as in the organ but as in the the kidney bean as in the ones used in chili and the like. Not that houselfs might take the name literally instead of what the world sees it as. To be honest for the longest time I thought it meant the organ so a 13 year old might believe the same. ~Reflections |
| Keronshara 2008-03-19 ch 3, | abuseFYI - Dennis Creevy started Hogwarts during Harry's fourth year. It was the first Sorting that he attended since his own. Dennis was thrilled about the fact that he fell off the boat into the lake during the ride to the castle and was rescued by the giant squid. He entered the Great Hall for the Sorting swimming under Hagrid's coat. |
| jbfritz 2008-03-19 ch 9, | abuseExcellent! |
| Tombadgerlock 2008-02-18 ch 8, | abuseso i *was* right, uh? Me Rock! |
| Tombadgerlock 2008-02-18 ch 3, | abuseDamn, i may have been right about Lucius being sort of manipulated. Who would have known, but why did he have the will to attack ginny, then? Very intriguing :-) |
| Tombadgerlock 2008-02-18 ch 1, | abusei *really* am interested by your percy, he is quite fun, much better than in canon in a way, though i am kind of hypocrit to like good!percy and hate nice!snape. maybe it's because this is well done? |
| Thelvyn 2008-02-02 ch 9, | abuseA very interesting story, I was a little worried when you had Lucius under the imperious that you might have forgotten that was his excuse for following Voldemort, but your method of cancelling it managed to expand on canon perfectly - as anyone under the curse cast by Voldemort would have come out of it when he was "killed". I'm also still looking forward to seeing what happens when Harry gets too clever with the diary and gets bitten, or I suppose he might just luck out and find out more about Horcruxes first and realise the dangers... Anyway, a great series so far and I'm really looking forward to the next one, I note that you were hoping to post it in October, 4 months ago... I hope that your beta manages to find time soon, and that you are writing rest of the series as you wait as I really want to read how you complete the series. Finally, I notice reference to a brick in your author summary... please consider this overlong piece of text my brick to you :D |
| power214063 2008-01-27 ch 9, | abuseplease update soon it has been 3 months since u finished this story |
| jstreader 2008-01-11 ch 9, | abuseWow, wow & wow! I absolutely love your series! I've just recently come across a few stories that have Harry being raised by a Wiccan and they're really well done...but yours is definitely out of sight! I can't wait for the next installment. Thanks for the great read! |
| Greywolf25 2008-01-10 ch 9, | abuseI have read the series as it is and i have to say i like what i have read. I hope you update soon. (I'd love to be a fly on the wall for the talk Lucius has with ferret face, oops, i mean Draco.LOL) Excellent job. :) |
| Uisce 2008-01-03 ch 9, | abuseI can't even begin to express my amazement at this installment of yours, Miss Greyson. But I am much inclined to beg you for the next book. I cannot even begin to tell you how glad I am to have stumbled upon this series. It's a different life, a different Harry (one I must say I like more than the original one; his sense of honor is remarkable), and a completely different series of events. I can only hope that you will continue with the series. I am enthralled by your use of language, your incorporation of the reader in the stories (keep us on our toes, don't ya?) and especially how you portrait your characters, in ways that have never been explored in canon, though not so different after all. But what I absolutely adore is that you claim, as I have always believed it would be the case (if wizarding magic existed, but hey, who's to say it doesn't), that pagan/Wiccan magic (I am Pagan myself, so I hope you can forgive me for not using the single term Wiccan) is as equally strong as 'wizarding' magic. I absolutely love the way you have incorporated holidays and rituals in the story, and the initiation ritual was so similar to my own it had me gaping like a fish! I might just make the mistake of correcting my friend the next time she says Harry Potter. "It ain't Potter, Lil, it's Brewer." Devoted reader, Uisce |
| Doro-chan 2007-12-26 ch 9, | abuseI want more! Where is the next story?? Sorry I don't want to sound commanding, but I like your stories so far and would like to read the next one. |
