Review:Alopex says:
So, this is the story I've heard quite a few good things about! And I see you participated in Violet Gryfindor's Figurative Description challenge, which also intrigues me. Now I'll be quiet and go actually read it.

Ok, now I've read it. This seems like a different type of story than I typically see here (here meaning fanfiction), and it's a refreshing change to see something that seems a bit meatier, for lack of a better word. It is interesting that you are writing this from a historical perspective . . . in some general ways, it reminds me a bit of theelderwand's stories.

I did find at times, particularly in the first half of the chapter, some of the description seemed a bit clunky or not flowing effortlessly. But then, my own writing tends to be that way too, and there's no denying it does help set the scene.

The best part of this chapter by far was the obstacle course! Great job on describing the action there. It was quite fun to read. I thought there was a good variety of different hazards, with the magic and physical activity blended nicely.

This is an intriguing beginning to a story. I'm quite curious as to why and how exactly Tom Riddle wound up in Russia!

Author's Response: Thanks for the review!

I'm a big fan of theelderwand's stories, so that's quite the compiment!

I tried to include as much description as possible since I was writing for the figurative descritption challenge. But, as you mentioned, it may have been at the expense of the flow. Oh well.

The obstacle course was fun to write, and I wanted something that would show off Riddle's skills right away.

We can kind of infer from canon that Riddle was somewhere in eastern europe in this era, so I'm just taking that and going with it.

Thanks again!
