    While reading this my initial feelings of sadness were transformed into a rueful smile and chuckle. I'm always pleased with a happy ending.

As a first year, Harry is sorted into Slytherin instead of Gryffindor, and no one is more surprised than his new Head of House.

    Another exciting chapter. I'm repeatedly amazed at the way you include an interesting plot development, humour, and drama in every installment. Keep up the good work.

    Author's Response: Thank you!  I hope to have a new chapter out soon.

    How very sad! I don't know if it's pride or perverseness that prevents Snape from accepting the kindnesses offered to him. The CHANCE for happiness of some sort.

    Wonderfully compact and well done. I'd certainly be interested in learning more about this Harry and Snape.

Moon Fire by Snapegirl starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 488]
A guilt-stricken Harry finds solace with a mysterious black stallion, never dreaming it's the Animagus form of Severus Snape. But Harry has a dark secret, one that could mean his death unless Snape discovers it in time. AU, no slash! Angsty!Harry Mentor! Animagus! Snape, some Draco too! HP/HG

    Sorry to hear about your accident. Hermione's unicorn heritage wasn't a plot turn that I would have ever forseen. I don't know what it will mean in the long term for the Harry/Hermione relationship since I thought there was some romance in store for the two of them. Will have to see how things go. :)

Caring for Yin and Yang by DaughterOfAres, autumnamberleaves starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 38]
A series of events leads to Severus Snape becoming the guardian of not only Harry Potter but Dudley Dursley as well. Disclaimer: I own nothing of the Harry Potter Universe. In response to Foolish Wishmaker's Challenge 'Snape's Boys'.

    I just finished reading the first 2 chapters and look forward to seeing how Snape 'whips' Dudley into shape after the shameful spoiling he has had for the first 12 years of his life.

    I didn't see the 'vagueness' of the first chapter as a negative. Instead it, successfully, created interest in reading more as I wanted to know who the "Daddy" referred to was (obviously NOT Harry) and who the 2 couples alluded to where and how they came to be. As well as finding out more about the kids.

    Author's Response:

    Thank you so much. That sort of 'vagueness' was exactly what I was trying to portray. Apparently based on other reviews I've received I was not as sucessful as I meant to be.

    As for Snape and Dudley...well you'll just have to wait and see, but I assure you he is in for a huge shock.

    Thanks for your wonderful reveiw!


Familiar by Sita Z starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 44]
What if Harry came across Slytherin’s monster before the diary incident… and asked it to help him deal with his least favorite teacher?

    I love this upbeat, happy ending for the basilisk. And, I can hardly wait for the eggs to hatch either.

A disabled Harry comes to Hogwarts story. Everyone expects him to be like his dad, but how can he be with such a different past? A Slytherin Harry takes on Hogwarts in an unusual way.

All That He Had Left by NicNac starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 13]
All he knew was that the sound of a soothing voice, the gentle rocking of the chair, and the weight in his arms were the only things that mattered, all that he had left.

The Tatcho Drom by Morgana starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 25]
Albus Dumbledore left Harry Potter on his Aunt's doorstep one Halloween night, in the sorrowful knowledge that he was condemning the boy to nine dark and difficult years. However, Fate intervened, sending Harry into the arms of a loving family whose very identity is intertwined with magic.

The only problem is, it's the wrong sort of magic and Harry, proud of his adoptive family and loyal as any Gryffindor, is determined not to compromise. Severus Snape would have found this hilarious... except the boy somehow ended up in his House!

    Just started reading the story so 2 chapters at once is a nice treat. I look forward to meeting the rest of Harry's family.
