Harry Potter and the Legacy of the Founders by VoldemortsPatronus
Rated: 3rd-5th Years [Reviews - 636]
Summary: The war is on and the only person with the power to stop Voldemort's second reign of terror is sulking alone in a cold, dark room. The unexpected arrival of an old school chum in Privet Drive jolts him to action, however, as Harry begins his most exciting year at Hogwarts. Year 6 will include a visit to the ancient village of Godric's Hollow; a first hand account of the 1000 year old quarrel that ripped Hogwarts apart; a Fred and George-style farewell to a certain ex-Minister of Magic; and the discovery of the Half-Blood Prince, a mysterious figure who holds the key to winning the war...
(And, as J.K. says, what's life without a little romance?)
I really do enjoy this story and I would like to get the free previews while they are being validated if you don't mind...Thanks..
Harry Potter and the Heart of the Hero. by Jeograph
Rated: 6th-7th Years [Reviews - 135]
Summary: Dumbledore is gone, or is he? Harry feels the weight of the world rests on his shoulders, but he is soon to learn that his brooding nature and desire to face his fate alone may be his greatest weakness. It is his emotions, or rather his capacity for emotion that makes him strong, and his relationships his greatest source of strength.
When the summer begins and he faces a fortnight with the Dursleys everything he knows, or rather thinks he knows comes into question. Can he... should he do this all alone? And is he anywhere near ready?
Hogwarts is to be re-opened, the Ministry officially endorsing it as the safest possible place to be. As his birthday approaches there are monumental surprises in store for Harry. Who is he really? And what about his family, who came before his mother and father? Why is the Potter name so famous, and yet so unknown?
Encouraged not to run off to face his fate he returns to Hogwarts for his final year, but surprises abound at the school as well.
Can Harry become the wizard he needs to be to face the Dark Lord? Will he let the people he respects and love really help him? And what of help from unexpected sources; sources he might never trust?

Author's Response: Very sorry about the long delay. I\'ll see if I can\'t prevent that from occurring again. Thank you for reading and reviewing.

Those 24hrs missing could prove to be vital and it looks like his Aunt may be a squib.. There's something strange about Luci too..Hopefully Harry can get over his lust for her and beg Ginny to take him back...Thats if Ginny doesn't kill him 1st... :(
Author's Response: Yes, the 24 hours ARE vital. And since Lily and Petunia\'s parents were Muggles, she isn\'t a Squib. But you will find out more about that later. And Harry and Ginny will work things out. =) Thank you for the review too, by the way! *Sunny*

Another great chapter..Now I'm just waiting for Harry to come back to his senses about Ginny..Seems like Harry may need 3 wands to keep up with Brian.. :)
Author's Response: Thanks! To be fair, Brian does have the Invisibility Cloak and the Marauder\'s Map, so he\'s got a bit of an advantage. On the other hand, Harry\'s no slouch, and he\'s coming back into his own.
I love this story and I can wait to see how the jinx war turns out...
Author's Response: Hehe... the jinx war should provide me with comic relief for a few chapters, shouldn\'t it? ;-)
Another great chapter..I'm glad that he's finally trying to put his marriage and family back together...
Author's Response: Thank you! Yeah, it took a pretty big shock to get him in the right mindset, but now that he\'s thinking about it....
