Honeymoons! *squeeeeeeeee* Okay, enough of that, but it was nice to see them all get a bit of down time and quality private time.
Loved the sequence with Harry in the library. Awesome bit of action, that. And the way he took Hermione and left Anafi. Way cool. I wanna fly with Harry like that. ;)
Very interesting chapter. I am always surprised and amazed with what you two come up with.

I love Luna! This chapter seemd to take forever to be posted! Yes I'm a selfish S.O.B. I love the story and the writing is tops but I want to continue the story immediately and I can't really care whether our illustrious authors sleep or not! Lol! Keep up the great worK!

Loved the story, but, and this is probably unfair, I wnted to slap hermione up side the head when she told harry off for using magic in the library, it probably looked like a battle zone and she was just angry, as far as I've seen harry nearly always has a reason, and I don't think she even apologised! (shrug) that's my little rant done with.
Great chapter and hope for more soon :)

What you have against "Amy's". First it was a portable hole. Now an ejection seat on a broom and Fred & Georges rocket thingy gets her.
Did an Amy reject you at some time in the past and this your revenge on her?
Is Alyx's middle name Amy? (if the answer is yes I'm not sure I want to see the resulting carnage).
Will Amy start featuring on the introductions instead of Snape/Rickman?
Onto lesser matters. Another good chapter. Nice to see Alastor Moody turn up. Didn't think he would get caught by the Death Eaters. Hmmm... does he have some occulemency and legimancy skills to pick up Dumbledore's thoughts at the end. It would certainly fit with the paranoia of Moody, and I would expect he self trained for it.
I would have thought he would want to help out with the British fight back, though that hasn't really started as yet.
I wonder if Moody has seen what Dumbledore has been doing and Moody now regrets his part in helping Dumbledore so much and is disillusioned.

Too bad about the honeymoons. Seems like only Draco and Luna's went well. But hey, who would want to ready a story in which everything was wonderful?

So glad you updated! keep up the hard work and although I don't have anything pertinent to say I figured you guys like reviews from readers who appreciate the hard work you're putting into your stories.
Truth be told, I love how you integrate Muggle/Wizarding relations and weapons (no story can come close to this) and how you have created this whole world, instead of just Britain and HArry fighting purebloods, killing Voldemort, and marrying some girl. Thank you.
Your story is believable and that is what makes it so magical.

The best part of the day today was getting to read the new chapter. Come home from work, check the email and the only thought I could think was "Woohoo, yes!". Glad to see that Terry and Susan made it through the battle. Was hoping that nothing really bad would happen to them on their honeymoon. That would suck. And not in a good way. Let's see what else could I say? Brilliant as always but the only sucky thing is having to wait for the next chapter. :( Oh well as long as you both are feeling well so that the story does get finished. Oh just thought this. I wonder what kind of info will Hermione get from the library? What interesting bits of knowledge will she get? How will the Terry and Susan respond to the knowledge of Susan's pregnancy? Will Draco be the next in line to become a parent? Will the stupid French guy get his just deserts? Tune in next time to find out more. Same Potter time, same Potter channel.(Sorry was thinking of the old Batman TV show)

Oh, very nice. The story moves along at a good pace. I like the bit in the library (somehow I suspect that'll be important later) and the bits with Terry and Susan in Paris were quite good. Drcao and Luna are very much of an interesting and evolving couple.

All i have to say is that this is another great chapter of this amazing story! (not that we'd expect anything less) Great job!

Great chapter! I especially liked the part where Harry and Hermione visit Egypt and the Great Library. Your descriptions of the clothing and customs provided a nice change of scenery.

I was just thinking about how much I was looking forward to a new chapter of this last week! (then x-men three came out and I kinda forgot about HP for a bit, because ZOMGXMEN) I hope you two are feeling better, and Luna with a daughter sounds fantastic. It really really does. But then, so does all them with children because they all seem like delightful people. It was an interesting way to solve west/middle east relations. Will China play a part in the story? Is it as large of a percentage of the wizarding world as it is the muggle world? Will it have the same impact? Anyways, good stuff!

Wonderful chapter. Poor Draco indeed. I can't wait to see what you do with Dudley now. As for the honeymoons being cut short, it's probably better for the rest of the world as a roaming Harry has already changed the political climate in the middle east enough for now.

Nice Update, I have been (lurking) and enjoying your stories for quite a while now. I usually don't have anything to say but...
I do have a little concern about your treatment of the Great Library of Alexandria. Just off the top of my head ... While Theodosius certainly ordered the burning of the Pagan texts at Alexandria, in 300 and something, the library was known to have limped on until the Arab invasion in the late 600s when it was burned to the ground. From aproximately 330 BC it was a Macedonian/Greek colony ruled by the Ptolemaic Dynasty, the founder of which was one of Alexander the Greats generals. Cleopatra (VIII) was the last of this line. After this it because first a Roman colony then a Byzantine (Eastern Roman Empire) colony. At the time of Theodosius there were no Arabs in North Africa - they did not come piling out of Arabia until the late 600s. The rescuers of the library would almost certainly have Graeco-Roman names not Arab names. The Coptic Christians, which make up about 10% of the country are the last remnants of these.
Thank you for listening to this Public Service Broadcast.

Nice nit picking, but if you want accuracy, then don't read fiction. In our FICTIONAL VERSION OF HISTORY, a wizard, with help, sunk the Wizarding portion of the library. Leaving the muggle version to suffer the fate you described. If I wanted to, I could have said the library was created by Martians, thats the beauty of fiction.
Now that you've picked on our nits, there are some others in the corner you can pick in private.

Love this story, can't wait for more! I'm guessing that Ginny at least is also pregnant but I've a wondering feeling about the other two as well.
