One of the best written fictions I've had the pleasure of reading.
Thank you for providing us, your readers, with such and exciting and captivating universe to experience with you.
Very well done.

Wow. I can't believe this is finally finished. It was worth the wait. This is one of the best stories that I have read. I have it saved as a word document and the Sunrise is 1653 pages though it would probably be a bit more if I had wider margins.
I love your characters and how they matured and changed, by the war, the aftermath and the in the epilogue. I loved the little snippets in the epilogue with each of the couples in the brotherhood -- especially the Lupin triplets. That was so cute! I can just picture the little wolf cub biting her brother's leg!
Keep up the excellent writing. While I am sad to see this story end, I look forward to your next story. And if you decided to do a few short stories set in the Sunset/Sunrise universe, I am sure that they would be eagerly welcomed.

I have enjoyed your work greatly and look forward to more. Sunset and Sunrise are very good and enjoyable. Good luck in your writing.

I'm honestly not surprised that Remus and Tonks was surprised at how many kids. I'll get around to telling you on how many pages the whole Sunrise came out to a bit later. Haven't printed it from this site. I'm a bit surprised if Mr Weasley didn't have any more kids. Congratulations and thanks for the story.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I am ashamed to say I have only reviewed this story a few times over the past couple yearseven if when I started reading it (only a few chapters written in sunset) I felt there was something good in the works.
Well! It has been way over "Good" and in the range of "bloody fabulous". It's definitely among the five best HP fanfic stories I have read over the past 5 years (among a few thousands).
Even if I don't agree with all your characterizations, you always make it enjoyable to read. Your story is incredibly deep, well written and well structured. I am waiting for book 7, but I am almost sure that, in my mind at least, the "real" Harry Potter story will be Sunset and Sunrise.
I hope you will continue to gift us with your stories even if it will be difficult to top this story.
So, once again, thank you for your work and I go read the whole thing again.

lol, I didn't take the time to copy the whole thing, but I put 7 chapters taken randomly from the story into Word. That totalled 267 pages which would average between 35 and 40 pages per chapter totalling 1200 and 1300 pages for the story. Numbers rounded to catch errors.
Point of interest, of the chapters I copied, the longest was around 70 pages and the shortest was around 30.
I can't say that I've ever read a fanfic quite as unique as this one. Honestly, I'm almost disappointed that it is a fanfic because you've changed the world so much from Rowling's vision. I have to admit there have been times I've put off reading chapters in favor of something that won't make me think quite as hard.
Well done. I expect I'll be lurking for your next story.
Cheers.

Sunrise is 1472 pages long!! Whew!
Superb, brilliant, wish I could actually live in the worlds that you create 'cause you make them so alive I feel like I could reach out and touch them, especially living in Ireland.
Sad it's all finished, but can't wait to see what you come up with next. Hope you are both keeping well and that Bob is OK.

excellent it is hard to say goodbye to a good friend and that is what this story was a good friend and to be honest it was the best you have written so far. Your stories is like a fine wine they get better everytime you read it. that way a type of story that you can read many time and get something new put of each time

Really disturbed yet still grinning at the disclaimer. Giggled over who was pregnant and Luna riding her dragon. I was cheering Hermione on when she attacked Amelia over the executions. State sanctioned murder is not the way to go. Sniffed over the fact that this is the end. It's been a wonderful ride and you balanced the sugar of the babies with the humour of their various talents. Plus the Weasley twins' wedding was superb. Absolutely fantastic story. Can't wait to see what you write next.

It was a fantastic ride - as are all of your stories. Great job - I loved it! Now I'll have to read it beginning to end again...for like the fifth time but now there is actually an end.

Great ending to one of the best fanfic series' ever written. Thanks guys. I always look foreward to your updates. It is sad to see the Sun series end, but I'm looking foreward to your next fics.

Congrats on the finish. It has been a great ride and though everyone is saying it well done on keeping up your quality writing for this long of a story.

I absolutely loved this fic and am very sad to see it end, though as with all good things, it had to end some time. I applaud all the hard work and research you put in to this, and eagerly await whatever you have planned next.
Oh, and as a side note, I keep word files of all my favorite stories since reading off a computer screen absolutely kills my eyes. So, with the addition of this last chapter, and omitting all the A/N's and Disclaimers, you are officially at 1139 pages (Verdana 8). Pretty damn impressive if you ask me, which in effect, you did. :-)

Bob, Alyx, I know I'm a sparse reviewer, but I've enjoyed this story and its predecessor as long as you've been writing them. Thank you for the amazing story, thank you for being willing to write in the face of whiny reviewers, and thank you for being willing to share your work with us.

Wow, it's the end. I'm sad that it is over, but I'm happy knowing the ending is complete. I know I haven't reviewed this story nearly enough, but I just kept wanting to read on. ;)
This has been an incredible journey. I'll admit that I didn't find this story until you were already well into Sunrise, but I'm so happy that I did.
This is an amazing story, and I am talking about it as a whole. One was not better than the other. I loved just about every word of it. From the infamous t-shirts, to Harry's crippling injury, the ships, 'mis-guided Dumbledore/Ron/Molly, to the muggle involvement and the war effort. I've never read anything like it, and it is definitely something to be proud of.
I plan on keeping this story forever and rereading it again many times in the future. I have actually had a hard time finding good quality, super-long fics that I have really enjoyed. Yours is joining that very short list.
Thank you so much for putting yourselves into this story, and sharing it with all of us. I'm looking forward to reading your future work.
*bows to you*
a pleased fan,
-Kari
