Wow! Fantastic chapter! The list of headlines was awesome. Too much information- indeed. Harry got nothing before, and now he knows everything. Wow. The scene in the basement was intense. I love all the discussions in the chapter. Fantastic job. Thank you for the update. :)
Author's Response: I wouldn't say he knows everything now, but he's certainly been clued in on a lot of what's been going on. How much of it he fully understands is a separate issue. There are actually a lot of loose ends in this chapter, but we'll have to wait until Harry processes what he's learned over the past few days and is able to start asking questions.
I had fun with the headlines. They were a much simpler way to explain what's been going on in the wizarding world without having someone tell it to Harry. Just imagine the length of that conversation! I was really pleased when I came up with the idea.
