Ohh...I was too fast to react after reading prologue. Anyway, I love it. Does not matter if its different universe, dont worry, its very intersting beginning and I like your style of writing. Also your English is great. My English is my 3rd language too :-)

Anyway you asked for suggestions, and I just love to give you some of them.

But its just not so much information about the rest of the crew.

For example Hermione could be Pureblooded/Muggleborn/be poor/be rich? The same about Snape. I also dont know about their age, how old they are? If Harry 11, may Hermione will be 11 too. Also how old is Severus? Are they all going to study together?

Also what about Grindelwald? Is Tom spy for him? Is Grindelwald huge and powerfull?

Also what year is that?

Is Harry pureblooded?

You see, so many things possible.

good start!

So Tom Riddle is still evil - or just woke up with voldy in his head.

Looking forward to seeing Hermoine.

your grammer and writing style are very good, particularly if English isn't your first language.

Nice chapter. I hope that sometime in the next few chapters we'll get a comparison of differences between this new reality and the old one?

I'll be curious to see how Harry interacts with Riddle as time goes on as well.

Yay!You updated:)Harry FOWL?Hehehe,will he be an evil genius like Artemis too?Ooohhh,professor Riddle,well if he isn't an interesting character*smirks*I really wouldn't mind getting detention with him*swoons*OMG!Riddle is a pervert when it comes to HarryVery nice prophecy by the ,shopping with a dark lord wannabe,that should be interesting...Good job,I can't wait for the next chapter*gives cookies*

I hope that you are able to continue with this story as I love the idea for it. I also hope he finds Hermione fast too.

Loved the start! I'll check out daily for an update!

Sounds cool XD Update soon!

Stupid old coot! He annoys me sooo~ much! LOL~ Anyway, great start*smile*

Looks like a good start. The only point of contention that I'm coming up with is that I think you mean 'nosy', not 'noisy' when Ron is describing Hermione in the prologue.

God I hate the manipulative old coot!

Interesting. XD

this seems like it could be a good story update soon

I love it! Please do not give up and continue!

I love stories when Tom been raised by Harry (Hand of Fate for example)I belive that Tom had such crap life...He deserve better. I also belive that Dambledore fully responsible for Voldemort rise.

There few stories on this site about Tom, Harry, but I newer read realistic story. Like Harry arives in the past, no money, no OWLs, no NEWTs, no friends, where he will go? I also thought that Gaunt family is newer had any credits in any fanfics, may be Meropa, but the rest of them always portrate as stupid and ugly.

I belive that Marwolo and Morfin may become very nice part of the story. Like Harry and the rest of the Gaunt can rise to power and became rich again. I dont mean became Dark Lord and etc, but I mean like Minister of MAgic (political influence).

OK, I know that Gaunt hate half-blood and Magles, but...just think, Marvolo is not stupid bigot, he knows that he from very powerfull line of Slizerin, they were rich once, had power, had everyhtiong, but now... they are nobody, laughing matter. He very depressed...

And Morfin...He just misunderstood, I oalways belived that he mentally retarded, just everyone treated him as cruel idiot, does not mean that he is.

Also just a thought, Harry can say thta he is the part of the Gaunt, like son of Marvolo (may be he had affair with some one, who cares?) Also I newer belived in hereditary portions, because if they ever existed, every maggleborn will have one to find if they are related to some one richg and powerfull. So if Marwolo will admit that Harry is his son everyone will belive. And with Grindelwald war, so may wisards and witches were killed, Harry can say that his mother is pureblooded and dead.

Also it is will be so nice to show Riddle family in very bad light, I always thought that father who abandoned his child deserve nothing. Gaunt can become very rich, and Riddle can become very poor, it is will be so pretty to read!

Anyway, good luck for you! I will check your page everyday for update!

And very good name for funfic, Black Phoenix, love it.

You have no idea how much I wanted to punch Dumbledore!Or bitch-slap him or knee him in the balls or see Harry do that or...Eerrr..I got carried away a little, beginning is awesomeI can't wait to see what will happen next,that should be really update soon*puppy eyes*
