    I love your wonderful description of Snape, the true potions master.

    I like how Harry is softening Snape without even realizing it. The transformation feels slow and believable.

    I enjoyed this chapter, it's good to know that Harry understands Severus is helping him even though Severus is justifying his motives as means of revenge, the fact that his actions are helping Harry that's what I care about.

    "It was harder and harder to remember the importance of his revenge when he was confronted with this child.......It was still revenge against James and Lily Potter, regardless of his attitude toward their child. If he rescued the boy, saved him from his pathetic excuse for a family, it did not matter if he regarded the boy with scorn or pity or compassion."

    PERFECT! Your progression with Severus' reasoning behind why he's helping Harry is very well done, very in character. I'm seriously enjoying the POV as well. It's quite a unique take on this type of story.

    This is quite possibly one of the best stories I have ever read. It is impeccably written, and the style is excellent. In fact, it rather reminds me of Snape. The thing that struck me most, however, was the fact that Snape was so IC. His reasons for helping Harry, his behavior, the way you described his love of potions...wonderful.

    "Potter was alone in every sense of the word, alone before his destiny – as every man was in the end – but alone in his every day world and in his childhood as well." --Amazing, so amazingly Snape. Such a volatile statement that is applicable in your story and in canon.

    One problem, however. An awkwardness of words.

    "Potter’s father has wronged me and Potter … and Potter has been wronged, wronged by every soul he had reason to trust." --make it had to retain your tense. And since you did not put this in thought form, the "me" is not appropriate here.

    Also, the idea of using Harry's first name to show growing affection is a tad overused.

    I look forward to finishing this story, unless I find another error or something that I really enjoy, I will review again when I finish.

    I had tears as I read this chapter...and I don't normally feel that much emotion within a chapter. The excellent writing and dramatic circumstances play second fiddle to the profound emotion woven into each bit of description and dialogue. This is a beautiful peace of work...


    Author's Response: Wow, I'm just blown away by those compliments. Thank you so much!

    This is a fantastic fic. I have it saved in my bookmarks and am checking for updates weekly. Though, I would like to see some chapters from Harry's point of view too. Other than that -- perfection!

     You are very talented. Thank you for writing this, and for writing so well.



    Author's Response: I don't intend to write any chapters from Harry's point of views. It's actually one of my big pet peeves, the frequent POV switches that you see in some fanfics, especially when the author feels the need to label the POV.

    Eep.

    Oh, your Harry tugs at my heartstrings. Every time he cringes, I do too.

    Severus' POV is engaging, and believable, and frustrating, because of course I realize every misstep about a second and a half before he makes it and by then it's too late. I love the fight between Severus' need to hate Lily and James and everything associated with them, and his need to take care of his Slytherins.

    Thank you for writing! I can't wait for more.

    Poor Severus, he does make a lot of mistakes with Harry, doesn't he? You'd think someone so smart would do a better job.

    Thanks for reviewing - hope you like the new chapter.

    OMG!!! Reading this story brought tears to my eyes! It's very rare that you read a good abused Harry story and where Snape is still IC and you have achieved this. I am totally in love with this story. I can't wait for the next chapter. Keep up the good work!

    Author's Response: Thanks! I'm so glad that you think Snape is IC, that means a lot to me.

    This story us wickid! you should add it to Fanfiction.net! everyone will love it! its amazing, I hope in the end that Snape doesnt continue it for revienge and is Harry going to be returning to his family or will Snape make it look like he returned and take Harry to his home? its Harry's blood that has to be in Privet Drive not him, his blood. so if Snape puts blood in privet drive the wards should be satisfied and Dumbledore need never know!!

    Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing. I think that putting Harry's blood at Privet Drive might fool the wards but isn't likely to fool Dumbledore as he's pretty smart. But Snape won't be letting Harry go back to the Dursleys if he can possibly prevent it at all.
