Had to read the story all over again; it’s still just as wonderful as the first time I read it. I hope that you’ll soon be able to add more to this story and that it hasn’t become a lost cause or and abandoned piece. I may have said this before in previous reviews for this title, but you really do have a great idea here for this plot. This has turned out to be a really great twist on the usual HP plots. Please consider updating soon.
I know that those muses’ like to scamper off at the worst times. Mine only come back with the promise of pizza, chocolate, caffeine, and/or smut, but that’s only cause they have dirty minds.
Anyway, I’ll continue to anticipate a new chapter and give you an extra gold star for the effort. Kudos!

Well... uh... you better update this soon enough, for its crazy as it is, and that means, nice!

Keep it up! And I don't know if I have the right to ask, but is there the possibility of making the chapters longer?

Thanks!

Great Story! Very interesting twist, I've never actually thought of that... I enjoy the way you make Harry "co-dependant" on Hermione. Only one suggestion: could you update faster? There are very few stories that I can't wait for the next chapter, and this is one of them!

Isn't there some sort of cure or some way to bypass deafness?
I mean its a magical world right?
Of course then we wonder why Harry needs glasses, so yeah, I guess this is possible
Overall, I liked it, its very new and much different from other rewrites of SS/PS

I absolutely love that you completely re-imaged this story. (Okay, so not really re-imaged, but I couldn't think of a better word.)

I love the fact that you gave him an 'Aunt', to be his guide those first eleven years of his life; I don't really want to think of how he'd have survived if he hadn't.

I loved the meeting between Hermione and Harry -- you've captured their chemistry already, and they haven't even known each other a day. Her caring and translating for him is already typical of them, yet you've made them your own.

The meeting between Harry and Malfoy was hilarious -- he was so clueless, and it was just so very funny.

Wonderful, wonderful job so far! I absolutely adore this story so far, and can't wait to see where you take it.

Two absolutely fantastic chapters! I hope they get a little longer as we get more into the story. I would have thought that with Aunt Claire teaching Harry how to speak (and sign) he would sound as if he could hear. But I'm guessing that since Malfoy asked him why he sound strange its because his speach is off? (Sorry if my wording sounds a bit harsh, I'm not familar with the corrct wording for such terms conserning the deaf.)
I'm curious about what McGonagall and Dumbledore need to see Harry about after the feast. Also, something tells me that not only will Malfoy be snoty and mean to Harry (as he usually is), but that he might also be down right cruel to him on some level because Harry won't be able to hear him. Let's hope Hermione and Ron can watch his back times 2.
Kudos!! For two outstanding chapters! Keep up the amazing work! Your doing great and please update again soon!
Author Feedback: As I understand it, many deaf people have a noticable change in their voice from not being able to hear the tone of their voice. Try talking and not being able to hear it; go by vibrations only. I may be wrong...

Champion! Bully for the deaf guy! It looks like Harry should wear the sorting hat — charmed to look like a beanie or a wizard chapeau — so it could help him with sounds. Hermione can't be around all the time.
I surely wish there were more words per chapter. Is there some internal pace you use to find the natural breaks? I am hooked on your story and can't really complain a lot... just remember that my e-mail name is mrgrumpy.
More please, I'll try to be good.

Hmmm... 2 things. The first, how did he realize that what he was doing was "hearing" so quickly? He hasn't been able to hear anything for his entire life so I'd have expected the sensation to be a bit more confusing and disorienting.

Secondly, if the hat can mimic "hearing" then that would suggest the possibilty of creating some kind of magical hearing aid using a similar process. Obviously the hat pipes sounds directly into his head, bypassing his ears, so why couldn't another hat or earpiece or something be made to take in sounds from around him and pipe THOSE into his head?

Author Feedback: Ahhhh.... very observant. I'm glad you noticed that and it will help you out later on in my series. That's all I will say for now!

As for the second part, you will find that out in a few days when I finish Chapter Eight.

Harry is deaf? I didn't see that one coming. I'm very interested in where you're going with this one.

Oops - I had gone back a few chapters - my review below should have been on chapter 7

Keep it up - you're looking good. The chapters are a bit short for my preference, but as long as they keep coming. I was a bit ticked that you missed the Sorting Hat's song/poem, not that you needed to copy it into the story, but I thought you should have mentioned it in the sequence of events.

Fantastic chapter, and thank you for such a quick update!
I can't wait to find out what happens next, especially since it seems that after this chapter, whatever events you planned to happen in Harry's first year of Hogwarts, will begin in one way or another.
Please update soon!
