can't believe it's been two years since you last posted anything. where ever you are hope you're ok

absolutly love it, i want more!!! is very well written and the plot is really catchy, hope you up date soon.

I can't stand it when authors abandon stories without explanation or warning -- and particularly when the note at the bottom of the last posted chapter seems to suggest an update is due soon. Unless one is dead or has suffered some other catastrophic tragedy, there's just no excuse for that level of rudeness. I don't care HOW good the story was, that completely ruins it for me.

Just wondering what happened? I really LOVE this story and the characters as you write them - did you ever finish it and post it somewhere else?

I\'ve read this at work over the course of two days and I\'ve never felt so thoroughly engrossed in a story in a long time (published or no). I started reading it for the H/Hr pairing and now I\'m reading it cause it\'s a damn good read!

Additionally, I must praise you on a very good original character. They are so hard to do well without them coming out as a Mary Sue. And to weave such a complex story around our intrepid heroes as well, is a great talent.

I can\'t wait for your next chapter and can only hope that it comes soon.

This is most definitely one of the most perfectly constructed stories I've read.

Great characterization, continuity, emotional depth. I absolutely love Elspeth... She's a great character and can't wait to find out more about her.

I liked how you dealt with the romance. You actually showed Ron maturing... A great achievement all on its own...

In summary, extraordinary work.

Definite favourite!

Your loyal fan,

wow... good stuff. This was really well written. The plot is very believable, and very scary. I'm reading this last chapter and it had me so upset and annoyed on Harry's (and Herms and Rons) behalf. It's so frustrating to see what they're doing to him. Especially that part about the Ministry-Mark, making Harry and everyone close to him a squib. YIKES! The last bit, with Harry almost fading out, and figuring out it was Bella was gripping.

I know it's been a while, but I really hope that you'll come back to it. This is a wonderful story and I'd love to see where you're heading with it.

Thanks for all your stories!

this chapter was great!!! I Love potion-happy Harry, and I agree with Elspeth, he is a HOOT! I actually missed the original word jumple, when Harry said "alsobutely", but I had to stop reading, so I could wipe the tears of myrth out of my eyes when he called her Merhione! LOL! And when someone said that "Harry doesnt like yew"... priceless. One of the funniest scenes I've read. There's that, and then the Percy stuff, and later the stuff with her uncle, turning it into quite a scary chapter. What the heck is Scrimgour looking for? Yikes.

I just started reading this story the other day, and am enjoying it immensely. I'm a big fan of your writing. Absolutely loved Leaving Privet and Here With Me, and of course Magic Never Dies. Loved those (I think I have a thing for stories where Harry gets the crap beaten out of him, but comes through in the end... love self-sacrificing Harry). I had avoided this story because it's a WIP, and I usually avoid them, but after how much I enjoyed HWM (knowing it wasnt done) I thought I had to read this. Your writing is fantastic; you do a wonderful job fleshing out the characters, whether JKR's or yours. I'm really enjoying Elspeth and her interactions with Harry. Your description of the final battle (through Snapes eyes) was gripping. I cant wait to continue (and I cant wait until Herms meets Elspeth). I'm looking forward to where you take this (and wont even drop any hints about possibly finishing this... hint... )

I must say that you are a very talented writer and have passed a link on to my friends that enjoy reading about Harry Potter. I can't wait to see what else you have written.

This has been a very interesting story and I can't wait til it gets updated. I have found that I like the new lady.

this story is amazing! i think the ways in which harry is having to battle the ministry and bellatrix is brilliant.

AWESOME FIC!!! I cannot wait to see what happens next! I noticed that you haven't updated in a while, are you stil going to continue it??

Excellent story. I love the plot, and it is all too believable. If JK hadn\'t killed off Scrimgour early on in DH, I think Harry would have had to deal with the Ministry after Voldemort. Very realistic and sadly too believable. While I am not a writer, I am an avid reader and you do a good job of getting your ideas across without the poor grammar and mispellings that ofter mar other stories. Thanks for a \"good read.\" Looking forward to the rest of this story.

Hi!

I really love your story. Started it this afternoon and just carried on reading until now. It is brilliant and a completely different approach... Simply ingenious.

Hope you\'ll update soon.
