Title: Alternate Ending
Author: paperrose
Warnings/Ratings: 3-5th years
Summary:

The prophecy predicted a boy with the power to defeat the Dark Lord; it never promised that he would succeed.

AU. The war against Voldemort is not running smoothly. People are being killed off daily, not to mention that neither Harry Potter nor Lord Voldemort have been heard from in a year. Now it's time for the second Battle of Hogwarts, but the consequences and failures of the first will come back to haunt the old survivors, and seemingly knock the crumbling Wizarding world off of their feet.

Reason for Recommendation: This is the prequel to a longer AU, but it's pretty decent in and of itself. If you want to read good AU, read paperrose.
