Sunrise Over Britain

Impressive story, I really enjoyed reading it and I'm looking forward to reading more of your writing.

I have just dinished reading through this monster for the 5th or 6th time. It is definately on my "to be re-read" list. Thanks to both of you for all of your hard work in producing this claasic for us.
I also frequently read and re-read all of your other stories, and they are all wonderful.
I got a big box of chocolate creame donuts nere for Bob, and if Alyx doesn't let you have them. then she wound get her life-sized Snape blow-up doll. Regards, Patrick

Hi! Did you ever think of making portable portals? If you could shrink the frame down enough to carry, that would be pretty cool!
I love this story! X Saida

sorry, the review below review was supposed to be for next chapter...
i seem to have hit a back button without noticing...

it is very hard to believe that your hermione will let that rescue mission,
or even show the letter to non-family. before the 'bonding' it would seem probable, but seems highly unlikely after she saw the memories...

this is probably your biggest mistake until now in this and the previous story.....

Being "wheels" I'm sure they "spoked" quietly, no doubt they are well greased.

"They spoked quietly for a few moments before Amelia signaled Harry and Hermione to step forward."

I'm glad I came into this story after you finished! No cliffhangers for me!! Yay!!!

Im a little confused here as well. In the early chapters when they took the town public you specifically stated that the Fidelius would NOT be dropped around the Manor but first you had your Amhar character and now Dumbedore and his mercs able to see and approach the house???

I'm a little confused, anyone who was that willing and able to so easily kill would have a black aura. So how did he or she get past those supposed wards?

Overall a good story, if rather dark for my usual tastes.

Some things I didn't like:

* Soul destroying rituals and daggers.

I don't like the concept that souls exist, but can be destroyed, by itself anyway but you were also inconsistent.
You reference captured souls being freed when the dementor leader was killed - but the dagger with 'dementor effect' didn't release anything when it was destroyed.

* the 'conflicting prophecy' plot device.

This was particularly weak. Given how vague the original Trelawney prophecy was it seems odd how certain they were that Voldemort had to become as powerful as Harry before he could be defeated. It would have been a more logical way of delaying things to just go by the Granger prophecies. The vital line in Trelawney's oracle was "~ Dark Lord will mark him as his equal". It's all about what the Dark lord does to Harry, and doesn't really fit the Dark Lord having to get more powerful himself before the final battle.

The first plain is the plain of spirits, that's where you go after you die to be jugged.

*ahem* Pet peeve - people who use "plain" when they mean "plane". c.f. astral plane

Huge story that manage to keep a good rythm all the way. It takes some times reading so don't engage if you are too busy beause you won't want to eave it alone until the end.

Lots of thanks to the authors.

fucking auwsome

Try a health food store, for the kind of goodies you're looking for Bob. Just hide them from Alys, so she doesn't take them away from you....<G>

Go Gett'm Fuzz!!!! I just love that little ball of fur! :)

Bob & Alyx, thank you for writing this rather insane but wonderful pair of stories. I am rather new to the world of HP fic, having only read the books for the first time last summer, but am quite enjoying it. I spent the last two weeks reading Sunset and Sunrise, forgetting to go to sleep until the early hours of the morning on an almost nightly basis. I'd complain about that, and blame you for it, but it seems as though people have tried that before, and failed. Not only did I love the story itself, but your notes and disclaimers almost seemed to have a mind of their own.
The only character who truly disturbed me was Snape and his use of Cho. War is war, and I've studied war, read other war stories, and watched way too many violent movies, but his perversion caused me to flinch. Not much does that to me these days, thanks to regular stream of cop shows and two violent film courses as an undergraduate.
So, thank you again for giving me something to do with what is obviously too much time on my hands. My boyfriend has been away for the last week, and in that time finished these two stories, although I did start them a couple of days before he left.

Why didn't you fix Harry's leg? How dare you leave a main character blemished at the end of a fic! Don't you know that super-Harry = invincible?

I hope my sarcasm was recognizable.
