Another excellent chapter - I can't wait to see when the clash shifts back from Harry v. Voldemort to Harry v. Ministry (openly, I mean).  |

Any story that contains references to Monty Python, Elmer Fudd, and Star Trek will always hold my attention. If you can figure out a way to work in The Simpsons, I'll start paying dues to your fan club. Joking aside, this has been a fun ride. |

Very Cool. Well though out begining and very plausiable start. I am going to take a long hard look at this and probaly snark some idea\'s. |

Great chapter, although having Hermione disrobe so wonderfully without Harry getting so much as a kiss was cruel.
Love your Hedwig, she does indeed seem to be much like the women in my life; Better looking and smarter than I am.
thanks for sharing. |

Interesting plotting, nice action. A solid chapter, even if the banter at the end risks breaching the fourth wall.
For me, the big thing is your laying out of the implications of Fidelius. I have always thought this one spell to be the most dangerous thing in all wizardom.
No government on earth would tolerate any organization that had the means to banish common knowledge instantaneously from the minds of a population.
For instance, what would happen if wizardom had a falling out with muggledom and decided to withhold and hide knowledge of electricity from muggles by a Fidelius? Ok, ok, that's kinda extreme. Maybe they couldn't manage that. How about knowledge of hypertext transfer protocol?
I love the way you take the bull by the horns and deconstruct obviously impossible magical effects that are just glossed over in canon. You have the most apt penname in all HP fandom. |
Author Feedback: Thanks for the review.
I think that the secrets that I've decided on protecting are still too big to be Fidelius-eligible, but they do keep the narrative going forward, so I'll hold my nose as I write them out. |

LOL at the ending. Luna would so know Python. Peter's end was truly poetic justice, as was whichever Lestrange tried to hurt Hermione. The captured DEs should have lots of interesting things to tell them if they will. Roger did a brilliant job acting. Harry's new job is going to be full of challenges, I'm quite sure, but I'm glad he'll have Sir John on his side along with Hermione's friend and boss. |

Thank You for the update!!
I\'ve been sick for a week, stuck inside and began with chapter 1 last week. Excellent story. Thanks again.

Wow, interesting cross-over with DH, though with Ron losing an ear, not George. And, of course, in your story, there's a muggle remedy to use. Amazing action, and though I don't know much about rugby, I did like that scene where Hermione relieves Harry's "tension"! Keep up the fabulous story telling, and I hope chapter 66 is out there soon! |

Hell yes on the Haka! I play fullback for my college team, and I keep trying to convince them to come up with something like that. Alas, they remain unconvinced of the fear in the All Black's opponents' eyes. |

For the record, would you believe it took me until today to peg you as a Kiwi? I had somewhere in the Commonwealth down for quite a while, but I wasn't even sold on southern hemisphere until the rugby comment in the AN. I guess I'm slipping in being able to localize my English... and my accents, for that matter, the last New Zealander I talked to got pegged as Aussie at first, for which she's still never forgiven me. That said, well done, good to see things moving along again, and I can't say I'm sad to see Peter go. I am, however, sad to say I missed the Fawlty Towers reference, for which I won't be forgiving myself for a while. *sighs* Some days, I tell you. Seriously though, well done again, I'll look forward to the next step - why do I have a feeling that both Harry and the Ministry are in for some major migraines in the next little while... |
Author Feedback: Thanks for the too kind review.
Sorry if this is disappointing news, but I'm more Minnesotan than Maori.
No worries about the Fawlty Towers miss....I had to look up the exact name of the "Lord" with bricks in his suitcase myself. It's enough to have readers who know what Fawlty Towers is. |

Monty Python + Harry Potter = Win. Pure win.
Awesome chapter, I totally want more. Great work! |

It's about time Peter got his due! I just the fact that it was Hedwig. Harry has ignored her, but understandably. How many titles will he end up with by the time your story ends? Does this incident push Harry a little closer to asking Hermione to marry? Great job and thanks for the update! |
Author Feedback: thanks for the review.
the fact is that I've been ignoring Hedwig as an author....given H/Hr immersion into Muggle World, she's not needed to carry mail.
I've also been ignoring Ginny, Draco, Snape and Mrs. Weasley, but that's more intentional.
I don't know exactly how many more titles Harry will garner, but it won't be too many more. And yes, this will make the title of "Hermione's husband" likely sooner rather than later. |

and once again, I am being educated in things I have no idea about, by fanfiction. I usually have a problem with stories that go on forever, you know the ones with 73 chapters and the like.. but this one is an epic, so those descriptions do not apply.
Thanks for another great one.

Author Feedback: thanks for the too kind review.
it was never my intention to turn this into an "epic" but once the ball gets rolling....took on a life of its own.
That said, it might not get far past 73 chapters...I seem to be running out of Death Eaters (not that Harry minds). |
