Chapter: Chapter 36: Wolf's Bane
Excellent chapter. Loved the ending. I love Sirius and Lupin to death. Felt that the chapter started out loose (no offense please) but ended up so very cool. I like your style (perhaps I already wrote that). Can't spend too much time reviewing this wonderful story. I have to get back to reading.
Author's Response: No offense taken. I wasn't sure where I wanted to go with it when I started. I suppose a lot of the stuff about the Tube, and the twins' shop and stuff could all go. Have to see what the prevailing opinions are, though--some people seem to like it.

Chapter: Chapter 35: Illuminations
Excellent question. How did Wormtail pull the wool over everyone's eyes for over a year? I'm sure you'll tell us. A little OOC for Harry to be thought of as cool when all we ever read was how he looked like a jerk in Dudley's hand-me-downs. I like your version better but it doesn't fit the Dursley picture. Great chapter. I love the way you flesh everything out.
Author's Response: I think Muggles would think Harry looked pretty lame, but to Draco's relatively untrained eye, he probably thought Harry looked like Kurt Cobain or a rap star, or something.

Chapter: Chapter 45: Pro Patria Mori
Wilfred Owen- Dulce et Decorum Est that was the poem. I read it last semester, in my English class. Amazing poem, and poet
Author's Response: Wow, ok, you're the 2nd person to say that. I thought it was Keats. Sheesh.

Chapter: Chapter 34: The Lost Boy
Great chapter. Really interesting take on Draco guarding the horcrux. The test to see if he would help a stranded women was nice. Fascinating the way Maura's floo works. The same but different (if you catch my meaning). Very nice. I like Ondossi a lot better now that she isn't throwing all that slang around.
Author's Response: I envisioned the Pac. Islander's "floo" as a different sort of mode of transport entirely. Particularly in the equatorial islands, it didn't seem like there would be a lot of chimneys around (at least until fairly recently). They'd need a way to get around that didn't involve fireplaces. Opening up a hole through the earth seemed logical...

Chapter: Chapter 23: From the Ashes
Great chapter. Thank you so much for bringing Sirius back. I have the feeling there may be something sticky about Sirius' return. Petunia was a shocker. Must she have a little magic in her to have found Hogwarts again? No matter. Great scene and wonderful chapter. Thank you.
Author's Response: I don't think she needs to be magical--she says she went there with her family, so I don't think she'd be fooled by the magical disguises around it. And you're right, there is something amiss with Sirius, but you'll find out soon enough.

Magnificent. Please don't let this be Harry still in the Dept of Mysteries dreaming. I want Sirius back for good. Wonderful chapter.
Author's Response: LOL, no, nothing like that. I like Sirius, too.

Great chapter. Hope Arthur isn't being set up for a fall. I especially liked the part when Harry knocked himself out trying to read Dobby. I love those fireflies. Keeping my fingers crossed about Sirius. Thanks.
Author's Response: Thanks! You'll learn more in a few chapters...

Chapter: Chapter 44: Fool Me Once
Thought I'd drop in a quick review since I've *finally* made it through your amazing, wonderful, captivating story...found it this week and have been sneaking in hours of reading whenever I could. I've really enjoyed the tale you've woven, 'specially since you've kept alive or brought back from the dead all of my favorite characters. Plus, you manage to slip in several LOTR references and that series is my first love in the fantasy genre. I can just picture Dobby, clad in the mithril shirt with Sting in hand! How fitting! Thanks so much for a wonderful read, I can't wait to see how it all turns out.
Thanks much!

PS - You've written the first Draco I've ever liked, and that appreciation may increase if it turns out he's related to my beloved elves!
Author's Response: Cool! Thanks for reviewing!

Author's Response: *giggle* Well, ok, YOU are. It's just that I get a lot of complaints about "Where's the next chapter?" and it's a little disappointing to post it and not hear any feedback. Makes me worry that people don't like it.

I think that this style of writing is very good. i didn't erally get what Tonks was doing, so I think that you might have been able to make it a bit more clear. But other than that, it was awesome, and I can't wait for the rest of it!
Author's Response: Well, it's actually kind of nasty, what she's up to...so it's probably just as well.

Chapter: Chapter 42: The Crossing
Hello,
I've been enjoying your story as a great alternative book 7 for a year now. Just thought I'd offer words of encouragement because when there's a long pause between chapters, I worry you've stopped and I'll never know the ending! (although I suspect the site revamp can't help) I love this 20C media version of the old fashioned serial story, with a proper evolving plot and characters - please don't let it be Edwin Drood! Congratulations on the story so far, and thanks.
Author's Response: Oh, I've got the story done, it's just Chpater 43 that's holding me up. I hope another week or two and I"ll have it done. Chs. 44-49 are finished. But thanks for the prompts.
