- this was great! are you planning on publishing a sequel anywhere??? :D
Amidst misconceptions and reconciliation, the lines that separate the Wizarding World will be destroyed. Enemies will serve one another as friendships are tested and forged. But first, the Sorting Hat Who Will Not Sort has a message for Hogwarts...
Warnings: some OOC (with reason). Definite and unabashed alternate universe, here: takes place from the beginning of sixth year. Snape and Harry interaction doesn't start until chapter 4.

- So first I must rant. You have created a story so enthralling that it is now 6.30 a.m. I have been awake all night reading your work of art. As such my parents will undoubtedly and irrevocably kill me and I will be uncoordinated and unfocused for the rest of the day. To an extent, at least, because I do this far too often to not know how to deal with it. More’s the folly I’m afraid but c’est la vie, enjoy youth and school holidays while they last, right? I am as such, left with nothing else to do but give your story my highest regards in as few words as i can possibly manage while stating adequately my opinion.
So firstly I would like to say that you creeped me out for the first 15 or 16 chapters of this. They were drenched in a prevailing darkness, sense of mystery and an overwhelmingly strange feel of things not right and indeed seriously wrong. The images painted by your words were so vivid that one could hardly help but feeling echoes of the emotions woven within the threads of the story in themselves.
Secondly, Draco. Good heavens man (in reference to human kind on a whole not yourself as a person as I am unaware of your gender). I was on tenterhooks and, I am mildly ashamed to admit it, for only the briefest moment for a very simple reason. There was no anxious wondering over how Draco could be dark and betray them all because I didn't realise fully until you told me and was indeed completely believing in Draco's innocence until you did see fit to tell us (masterfully done by the way) and was then promptly in denial until you had finished redeeming him. However I certainly never saw that coming. Actually I wonder did you even see that coming when you started out with Harry casting Imperio over Malfoy?
Thirdly, while I was initially, and not without cause I might add, well and truly creeped out for reasons unknown at the beginning of the story by both the characters and the happenings within the story itself, the characters and the plot both were written beautifully and I, unashamedly, admit that I am well and truly enamoured with your story. I will doubtless be going back through it a few times to reread favourite parts.
Here I end with another apology for the length of this review. Something I am fairly certain is meant to be a short thing and yet I could have gone so much further pulling apart the plot and characters till it resembled a university thesis paper more than a simple review. I blame the length of my rambling on my lack of sleep and as such, inadvertently, on you. Sorry.
So yes, in summary awesome work, awesome story, loved it to bits and blame you for any trouble I might get in should my mum find out.
Till next time, The Girl in the Corner.
Author's Response:
I hope your mum did not find out.
In all seriousness, I am beyond flattered. And to be honest about Draco, I knew he could go either way from the beginning. However, I wasn't sure WHICH way he was going to go until a few scant chapters before the reveal. I like to be unsure myself, you see, to lead readers in both directions simultaneously. And to create characters who are struggling, themselves. If the character is struggling, writing from paradoxical two-points-of-view helps convey this. :)
I should let you know that there is a sequel on ff-dot-net called 'Geas of Gryffindor' which I think you will enjoy.
Happy reading!

As Harry comes of age, he must discover the secret of how Voldemort cheated death and find a way to defeat this evil once and for all. Along the way, he will have to contend with Death Eaters, shadowy Ministry officials and suspicions that threaten to tear his own allies apart. And he will need to delve farther than ever before into the mysteries of the mind where victory can only be won by freeing the chained souls.

- This was so awesome! I have been reading the series non stop since last night and just finished. I stayed up until four in the morning reading it and it was worth every minute. The times when I find a series of this calibre that inspires this level on interest in me is rare, not because I am a stuck up snob but because I just read so much (both books and fanfiction, although this is book length I like to differentiate most of the time). Excellent work! You should consider writing more and posting these on fanfiction(dot)net if you haven't already. :D
When Harry and his new, pretty neighbor are rescued from Privet Drive on the eve of a Death Eater attack, Severus becomes Harry's reluctant guardian and healer in the weeks following. Old prejudices are challenged as Harry's new friend casts her own spell over Hogwarts' Potions Master.
