Oh wow. Nice ending. I kind of hoped that he would end up with Snape taking care of him though, but at least he doesn't have to go back to the Dursleys.
Loved it, especially how the tiwhana kicked everyone's ass and saved Severus and gave Helen back her life. Now I hope she and Severus have many children and they ought to adopt Harry too. I wish he would have stayed in NZ and he should have given Sev a farewell hug, just to see what Snape would have done. I've a bet that he would have hugged him back. There's a sequel, right?

Not entirely sure to think of this one. I feel it was a little abrupt, for the most part.
I certainly enjoyed it, no worries there, I just feel it was a little short and didn't take enough of Cannon!Potter to feel.. complete. I mean - Harry is suposed to fulfill a prophecey (which had been hinted at in the first four books before it was revealed in the fifth) and it was he who was supposed to kill Voldemort - rather than a deity.
You could have pulled this out a lot longer, and used some of the NZ magic far more interestingly - for instnace, it would have been facinating for Harry to learn some NZ magic and taken it back to Hogwarts with him (unless of course, you do that in the sequel, which I am about to go and read).
Over-all a pleasent read, but a little too short and abrupt, and killing off Voldemort and the Death Eaters in such a way, kind of took all the fun out of it.
Hrm/ Off to read teh sequel now, though, because I did enjoy it - and all the NZ stuff was incredibly interesting.

That was really good. I only wish that Severus would have been a little more welcoming than he was but I guess that's his personality. I do think Harry would do better with him than with Sirius. Sirius just isn't very responsible, in his words or actions. Anyway, wonderful story. I'm glad I found it.

Absolutely terrific story. I was enthralled from beginning to end. All the characters were interesting, yet did not take over the story and distract from the Snape-Harry interaction. And Snape was very in character. <br><br> The formating needs some work, but I'm giving this one a 10. One of the best gen reads I read in a long time.
