Guest chapter 17 . 8/21/2020 the ending was surpising but i m glad everything worked out for harry and ginny the story somehow hooked me though ! impressive :) |
weeathamandjam chapter 17 . 8/5/2020 Well this was a highly enjoyable read. Your writing style is very engaging and you know how to do flashbacks properly. Most authors use them as boring exposition pieces but yours were packed with action and were as captivating as your main story. Which was full of characters I cared about, characters I wanted to watch burn, characters I wanted to tear to pieces and I am SO DAMN HAPPY that you didn't pull any punches when dealing with baddies. Their deaths were satisfying and varied and even poetic at times. And I loved how Harry killed Amelia without killing Amelia. Just one small suggestion. Please do not give out details of what is going to happen later in the story in your author's notes, especially at the start of a chapter. Many of them spoil the chapter and hint at major upcoming events. While I still enjoyed those chapters, I would have enjoyed them much more without the mini-spoilers. And finally, I would have loved to read Britain's reaction when they realized they had pissed off Harry for the last time and now they were on their own. Maybe an anonymous howler in the middle of the day in Diagon Alley telling them how they could all go to a Voldemort-shaped hell. Would love it if you made this as an omake or epilogue. |
greenking13 chapter 17 . 7/17/2020 Hrm. I'm going to be honest, the ending feels like a cop out. Essentially "Fuck Britain, fuck the possible world, Dark Tosser is mortal, let's go on a vacation and wait." Okay... technically it works. And you have made a more Slytherin Harry within the final chapter considering he's been more of a Dark Gryffindor Harry for the majority of the story. Anyways, with that statement out of the way, I did thoroughly enjoy the story and I thought it was well written. I thought that Harry coming to the realization that what he loved was more important to him than what his supposed destiny is, was a nice touch. The idea of a Dark Ginny is always a nice one, and although you've set her up to be a bit more dark than normally expected, considering the trial she has gone through with her own family and her sorting, I can reasonable understand it. Keep being awesome, keep writing, and I hope you're staying safe, Green |
Bonny chapter 17 . 7/9/2020 Nothing short of brilliant! |
Grindelwald49 chapter 7 . 7/5/2020 Damn your a sadist you just like people close to Harry dying |
Ptolemyspyjamas chapter 17 . 6/24/2020 Honestly this is a mediocre story at best. Harry rarely uses any magic at all and most of the fights are with guns and knives. What even is the damn point of him training with Grindelwald and getting the elder wand? They even go full retard and use muggle financial chicanery to establish safe houses. If the author had half a brain the Fidelius wouldn't exist but no, it does, confirmed that Pettigrew had been secret keeper and everything. Basically author wrote a story with classic Slytherin is just an evil gryffindor. Though the ending does redeem it a bit. |
gginsc chapter 7 . 6/4/2020 Damn! Poor Tracy! |
JustinOtherFictionFan chapter 17 . 5/5/2020 I have loved reading this and only wish there were more than 17 chapters. I am glad you are not trying to make everyone happy. This was a fun read and I look forward to reading the rest of your post history. |
GooseChase chapter 6 . 4/21/2020 I disagree with your comments about Scottish independence. Otherwise, this story is looking really really good. I'm enjoying it. |
SiriusOrionBitch chapter 17 . 4/20/2020 That was one hell of a fantastic story! Abrupt ending but there was so many times I was shocked about what happened but I loved all the twists! Well done! |
Banshee-024 chapter 17 . 4/15/2020 hmmm... Nice story! the end kind of feel rushed but i guess when someone had enough they say 'screw it' lol |
Zippo1234 chapter 17 . 4/12/2020 This fic really does feel like a Harry that was raised by Grindlewald. I loved Ginny's character and the way you portrayed the Bones ladies, it was refreshingly different from most fics I've read. Harry and Ginny killing their enemies when appropriate was supremely satisfying. The ending was not what I expected but I thought it was well done and is believable in the context of Harry's character growth. |
Sparky She-Demon chapter 1 . 4/2/2020 Harry being raised by Grindelwald? This should prove interesting! |
BlueOrchid96 chapter 17 . 3/30/2020 Fantastic, original piece. You didn’t hold back with the nastiness but it kept it so fitting. Well done! |
pix25 chapter 17 . 3/30/2020 Beautiful story, I love the plot and I enjoyed reading it :) |
