Amazing! Great chapter. But, I hope there is more of Grindelwald in there future.

Author's Response: Thanks, glad you like it.
I think that this is the only Grindelwald free chapter, but I'll have to check. But don't worry, I'm sure what there is will be more than enough for your dark lord fix :) He's just that...evil. Haha

Good work as always, loved the Quidditch action (though you changed the Irish beaters to Bulgarians at one point).

Love the interplay you have going between Harry and Ron

Author's Response: So I did! I really should stop proof reading my chapters while sleep deprived shouldn't I?
I'm enjoying writing their bromance, it's easily the most fun part-there's a lot of comic potential, as well as 'awww' moments from time to time :')

And then you had to try and make me cry! Another good chapter, loved the last bit especially. Good work

Author's Response: Sorry! I felt I had to put this in, to show Harry's not...I don't know, as whole and as fixed as he makes out. Deep down, he's still a little broken from all the things he's been through.
Thanks for reviewing again!

Wow! For a second I thought Harry was kidnapped. This was way better than I thought it would be, I dont want this story to end! Please continue with your amazing work!

Author's Response: That was what I was aiming for ;) Had to build the suspense first. Don't worry, I plan too. I've even got a sequel planned and most likely another after that :) Thanks for reviewing!

Very good chapter again, really liked the bit in Hogwarts.

Author's Response: Thanks, I thought Ginny's career story needed a little fleshing out, so I thought I'd add it in :) Glad you liked it

 Report Review

Wow! This was sure a surprising chapter! I would of never expected Ron to ask Hermione to marry him in this chapter, it was a good surprise. I liked how Ron and Harry talked before Ron proposed, it shows the closeness between the two characters. Keep up the great work!

Author's Response: I always thought that because nobody would ever expect Ron to do it, he'd do it quite quickly, I reckon he'd want to get it over with to be honest haha.
As for Ron and Harry talking, it always annoys me how in a lot of fanfics Ron and Harry seem to drift apart-they're best friends and I intend to keep them that way. Yay for bromance!

 Report Review

Another great chapter. Just one thing, I think when you want to write "definitely" you write "defiantly" which is a different word entirely, just thought I'd point it out.

Keep up the good work!

Author's Response: Ah me and my awful spelling! I'll edit it, thanks for pointing it out!

What a chapter! I am in love with this story! I cant wait for chapter 24 to come.
P.s I really love how you play out Harry and Ginny's relationship. Its exactly how I imagined it would be after the battle, but without Gellert, but he is a great villain/character in the story.

Author's Response: I'm glad to hear you're enjoying it!
The next chapter should be up tomorrow, providing it doesn't get rejected (which I don't think it will) so look out for it.
Harry and Ginny's relationship isn't the easiest thing to write, what will all thats gone before and now the distance between them, so I'm glad you like it.
As for Gellert, well I think every great story needs a villain, don't you? Especially a Potter story, although he's a little different from Voldy I think.

 Report Review

Another great chapter, keep them coming. Just so you know I have nominated you for a Dobby Award because I firmly believe you deserve it. I hope someone will second it!

Author's Response: Wow, I'm so honoured! Thank you so much, I don't know what else to say. I hope you keep coming back and reviewing as long as I keep writing :)

Best fanfic I've ever read! I love how the plot blends with the canon in the books so that the plot isn't changed at all (most fanfics on this site aren't like that(. I also like the way you have Gellert with a good personality sometimes rather than being a complete madman (like when he felt respect for Dumbledore and then Harry).

Author's Response: Thanks for the massive compliment! I hope you keep reading and reviewing. I'm really happy you're enjoying the story :)

 Report Review

Great chapter, thanks for giving us a nice long one before you pop off. Have a great break and hope to see the next one soon!

Author's Response: Glad to do it! I plan too, and you'll have another chapter (unless it gets rejected, fingers crossed!) to tide you over. Thanks for reviewing again, they mean a lot!

NO!
Dont you dare kill off old Aberforth!!!
Amazing chapter though, keep it up :)
10/10

Author's Response: Ah you'll have to wait and see!
Next chapters being validated, but I'm not sure I'll be able to get another up before I leave on tuesday, so it could be the last for a couple weeks.
Thanks for reviewing!

MrAmazing story so far, one of my favorites. Maybe it's just common assumptions made in the fandom re: the post-war era, but do I sense the influence of Mrs_Granger's _Harry Potter and the Summer After the War_? Your style really sounds Rowling-esque, quite enjoyable in a fanfic.

A couple very minor things I'm wondering- 1) will Harry have the idea to get Tonks painted at some point, so Teddy can know not just the Marauders and Lily, but his Mum, as well? 2) Do James/Sirius get a painting of the Hogwarts grounds to visit/ fly/ play Quidditch in? Possibly with some of their school friends, as well? 3) when do we next see the Odd Couple (Draco/Dudley) and the undoubtsble hits to both parties' superiority complexes?

Can't wait to read more. I think yours is the fic. that has inspired me to write my own. Thanks for writing this!

Author's Response: Thank you very much! I tried to base my style on Rowling's as much as possible-A Potter story in another style just isn't a Potter style.
All will be revealed in time, though I'm thinking I'll have to add to the odd couple, there's just so much comedy potential in there haha.

I'm glad I inspired you! I'll be sure to check yours out at some point :)

Just finished reading your story up to now. Must say, its the best feeling to find a real gem of a story, hope you update as soon as possible.

Also don't worry too much about the canon error, as they go its not the biggest one that you could have made and it makes precisely no difference to how good this story is.

Author's Response: The next chapters in the queue, so it'll be up in one or two days :) I'm just ironing out the finer points at the minute, the story's almost finished. Unfortunately, I'm away on holiday on tuesday, so I won't be able to update. I'll try to get another couple of chapters up by then though :)
Thanks for reviewing again, I really appreciate it!

Nice battle, continued excelent storytelling, and timely updates to boot.
What more could a reader want?
Perfection yet again(excluding that lil non cannon goof but hey I forgot too). Keep up the good work.
10/10

Author's Response: Thanks for coming back and reviewing!
I've actually finished drafting the story, so it's pretty much regular updates until the story's finished, apart from my upcoming holiday, so it should be done pretty soon. I have a sequel planned too.
Hope you keep reading and thank you again for your very kind words

Again, a really well written chapter. I like how you wrote the scene in St Mungo's in particular. Keep it up!

Author's Response: Thanks again, glad you're enjoying it and I'm loving your dedicated reviews!
I enjoyed writing that scene actually, it's a little different to most of what I've done, but I like making them do a little detective work :)

 Report Review

The last two chapters have been brilliant, I can see you're writing is getting better and better. You also have a real knack for writing the action scenes which is quite rare. Really well done!

Author's Response: Thank you very much once again for your review! Puts a smile on my face.
The action scenes are my favourite parts to write, and I'm glad I'm doing them justice. It's quite difficult, because there's so much dialogue, so I'm glad you enjoy them so much :)

Another great chapter, good stuff.

Author's Response: Thank you very much, I appreciate the reviews! Hope you enjoy the rest.

Really enjoying the story so far, hope it all is of this standard. Great writing

Hiya!
Emesias here with your requested review!

I think that this was a brilliant prologue. The dialogue as well as the description was perfectly balanced. The imagery was definitely well described. As for the characters, this was a good way to show your readers the history between Gellert and Albus. Good job! I can't wait to see how the characters develop and how the plot unfolds itself.

Overall, good job!

Please feel free to drop in another request on my thread ^_^

Happy Writing!

Author's Response: Thanks, great review :D I'm glad I'm doing it right :')

A flawless 10/10. Beautifully written chapter.

Author's Response: Thanks, I really appreciate that :)

Intresting story so far. One question though, why did none of the "golden trio" tell the aurors about her animagus form? All in all a solid 9/10

Author's Response: Probably should've added that in, really. Thanks for reminding me, I'll edit it :) Thanks for the review, keep reading!

Like your plot and story line, feels like it's going somewhere. A few inaccuracies like Rita working at the Quibbler as per your early chapters?
Look forward to your next posts.

Author's Response: Was she not writing for the Prophet again in Deathly Hallows? My mistake if not.
Thanks, hope you keep reading :)
