The plot bunnies about Peeves and the growing military bearing of the house-elves are great fun.

Over and over again Dumbledore as a bad guy becomes more intriguing. My only concern is Charlie gettting killed decause of his involvment with Dumbledore. But hey, this is war.

The idea of the scope and pervue of justice to be addressed by the Brotherhood was a brilliant conception. Genius.

Well done.

Ugg. I don't want another Weasley to get on the wrong side - the non-Harry side.

Interesting conversations with Eocho.

Great work!

Hey, been awhile, been out of town! bummer couldnt figure out how to drag this big ole desktop with me in the pickup!

anyway see ya got 3 updates, great story by the way, I personally think that no matter what your author notes say in the end it going to be charlie with the wool over his eyes is going to after harry defeats voldie do something stupid to us but great for his way of thinking and drag harry off to be killed by dumby so dumby can so he thinks still be declared the saviour of the world before the that same world turns and kills both charlie and dumby!

as far as the updateless winners, I would have to say the father was very good and cleansed power was outstanding and sadly they like all great fanfiction, which sadly seems to be most of the great stories go the way of the abandonment. I know its a great sickness that falls on great writers that have great stories, it all happens I think cause they have a story that is so great that if it was in book form people would line up in the rain or snow to buy it, also another way to tell is they have anywhere from 800 to couple thousand reviews, no or very few flames.

You see the ones that mostley get finihsed are people that have authors notes at the bottom of each chapter saying if you dont get me so many reviews for this chapter then I will not update! but then again that is another sickness! oh well I guess if a author with so many reviews and such a great story decides to abandon it I guess we will have to start calling it the Jeconais factor or the RossWrock sickness, what do you think!

Okay, Dumbledore plans to lobotomize Harry, so please kill the old codger in your own good time and way, but please make it fit the crime. Being blown up sounds good, but so does being trampled by a herd of hinkypunks. Slow motion being kissed by a dementor maybe over several hours, perhaps?

Fascinating bit of Gaelic lore.

Terrific!

I still hold out some hope for Dumbledore being at least partially redeemed. But if he hurts Charlie Weasley, unleash the hellhounds.

There isn't a bit about this that isn't fascinating.

Heartwarming about the orphans. In a sense, Mrs. Johansen is the traditional 'Molly Weasley' type we see in most H P fics. I like the type; what would we do without a little doting.

I am curious about how you handle the faith issues.

Just excellent all around.

I reviewed this chapter early this morning, but I just had a sad and frightening thought.

Will Dobby volunteer to go back to Malfoy to spy on him?

(Major Shivers) I hope not.

Excellent tale when I am thinking about one of your chapters subconciously hours later.

I have never liked Harry Potter fanfics where Harry becomes Minister of Magic right after, or even just a few years after defeating Voldemort. No one has made him into the person he'd need to be to accomplish it.

You, however, have written a tale that develops Harry into the person who could easily be MoM by age eighteen.

This plot is complex and brilliant - not just a story built around a few plot ideas, but a WORK of fiction.

Wonderful.

Well if you are talking of your pet peeves ( updateless fics ), I think that Jeconais 'This Means War' surely would qualify since it would approach the one year anniversary soon since its last update on 21.Apr.2005 on FF.

OR does him being the host of this site get him special concessions.

This was a rather snide and petty review. Let me explain it in easy to understand terms. Qualification for the Updateless List requires the author to PUBLISH NOTHING within the last 60 days.

I rate your review as a 3 on a scale of 10 to 20.

Finally I have caught up!

As I said before, i have been rading your stories straight for a few days, and it takes a lot to get me to do that. I am eagerly awaiting Dumbledore recieving his comeupance, but I can wait as long as you want to make me. Wriing of this caliber is a true grem to read, one that I am grateful to have found. I will be reviewing as often as i an now, so good luck with the next chapter, and hopefully I will be able to read it soon!

Peace and Out,

Pwn Master Paladin

I found your stories from FFnet and I have to say IMHO, this has been the most enjoyable of FF reads! Not only do I like your story, but your disclaimers & Author Notes, well I LMAO! You have the humor of the infamous Weasley twins. Good job, keep those chapters coming!!!

ManuelJ posted a comment on Thursday 23rd February 2006 11:05am

Well I am a first time reviewer, congratulations for a great story, althought the Ron, Snape, Molly and Dumbledore bashing did get boring in a few places. Anyway thanks a lot for the story, and i hope to se a new chapter soon.

Hmmm... I wonder if Bob realizes that Harry getting laid is now part of the story, and that he really can't remove it without doing some MAJOR plot changes....

Charlie wouldn't listen to Dumbledore! ::waits eagerly for the Avada Kedavra Enema::

Heh, nah, seriously, he'd be putty in Dumbledore's hands. I wonder though...did Dumbledore suffer any side effects while passing through the line? Admittadly, he doesn't have that black an aura...but with the decisions he's making......never mind. I think I answered my own question.

Has Arthur HAD the talk with Charlie yet? If he hasn't, HEY ARTHUR! NOW IS THE TIME! I reeeally hope Charlie doesn't have to drug his father....He'd be doing it for the "greater good", but with the grudges his family holds? Yikes...

Keep it up!

So far, so good. BTW: black-phoenix-warrior has updated The Father, and would like to know if he/she can be taken off the 'naughty list'.

"Charlie was raised believing that Dumbledore didn't fart. Nope, the man passed his gas into an alternate dimension and could do no wrong." Not only did I find this funny, I was laughing so hard I started hiccuping/coughing, face turning as red as a tomato, etc, that my mom came rushing in with a worried look on her face. (Reminder to self: must send this to sisters and cousin, no doubt they will have a reaction close to mine, especially cousin.) Oh, and it's not just Charlie who was raised believing that, but all of the Weasley children (along with many others). Maybe this is why most people are so quick to go to Harry's side, they don't want to be accused of supporting DD; plus, now that the original "Ace in Space" is out of the picture, they do need someone to fill the original's shoes, right?

Great chapter, I really can't wait for everything to come crashing down on Dumbledore and I wonder who's going to finally set Charlie straight. Keep up the great work and I completely agree with HP and the Mind Mage, story was excellent but I always try to be optimistic and hope he will update. Update soon!

We've run out of Alan Rickman movies. Face it Ladies, he's not exactly a Harrison Ford you know.

How about the movie GALAXY QUEST, a space comedy with TIM ALLEN.

sanghamitra posted a comment on Sunday 19th February 2006 4:52am

be careful, first your harry turned powerful, now voldermort is following him...... next theyll be too powerful and regardless of who wins theyll turn a good portion of the earth uninhabitable and the rest submerged !! it's nice of you to make harry more than a bit powerful but remeber youd have to do the same or a bit more to voldermort since harry is supposed to be the underdog so my advice is to stop making them more powerful, you have made a big spread, maake sure you're able to tie in the ends. i like the way you write but this story is somehow folloing the track of "mastermind hunting" on ffn, another story started brilliantly but now it has turned so convulated it seems like a neverending sitcom.
