Reviews For Through a Glass, Darkly
Thank you so much for sharing such a wonderful story.
I really enjoyed reading this story. The premise of Voldie having lodged himself in Harry instead of fleeing to Albania was a very unique and interesting plot twist, and I think you handled it very well. My favorite bit was when Harry was dead. I thought how you had him take care of baby Tom was sweet, and, really what should have been done in canon... Oh, I'd better not get started on my rant about the mistakes that Dumbledore made when he met Tom Riddle for the first time. Sorry about that! I found the story very, very satisfying, and I felt that you did a great job in keeping Snape in character despite the differences in the events he was experiencing from canon. (And I loved Marlowe!) Well done! Author's Response: Thank you very much for your thoughts! I'm glad you liked the premise of Harry being possessed - I was very impressed by the scene in OOTP when Voldemort acted through Harry, and I thought it would be even creepier to see him do it when Harry was still a little boy (Regan from "The Exorcist" comes to mind...). As for Tom Riddle, I have to say I agree that Dumbledore could have handled things differently, but then, this may have been how things were done at that time and age, when being an orphan still carried something of a stigma... anyway, I'm glad you liked the story, thank you for letting me know!
I think, though, that would best be placed under a different story title, as an extra scene, rather than an epilogue, unless you add other scenes or something that is very important to this particular storyline. Otherwise it will just seem like it's left hanging... Hoping for more to come! Author's Response: Thank you! I thought about posting the birthday party under a different title, but since it's so closely tied into the story, I decided on an epilogue instead. I hope I managed to wrap things up without forgetting any plot lines. Thank you very much for reviewing!
Author's Response: Hope you had a great vacation! I'm glad you liked the story, thank you very much for your reviews!
Author's Response: I'm so glad you liked it! About the sequel - I might have some ideas, but I'll need to let a little time pass and write something else in the meantime. Thank you very much for reviewing!
Author's Response: Thank you very much for your reviews - I hope you like Draco's party!
Thank you for writing this story, it was a pleasure to read. Author's Response: Thank you very much, and I hope you'll like Harry's stay at the Malfoys'! I'm glad you enjoyed the story!
Now back to the topic of Sev's parenting... I really hope you do show them going to Madam Malkins and the optician. I'm interested to see if Harry's eye sight is naturally that bad in your world or was made worse or that bad from the neglect and abuse. I also love it when people write about Harry getting new clothes, because everyone writes it so differently, but so essentially Harry either way. here's looking to seeing more! Author's Response: You're giving me some great ideas for what might be included in a possible sequel - I also love stories in which a new guardian takes care of Harry and provides him with all the things he's never had. Thank you very much for reviewing! |
