Reviews for Severus Snape and the Art of War
WhisperOfTheHeart0925 chapter 249 . 4h
This is adorable. I'm blown away by all the Good Feels I'm getting right now. It's so nice to see everything come full circle, and I loved how you incorporated scenes like Snape showing Lily his memories of the first Harry, Harry showing up with the stone, the third kid being called Harry and getting put in Gryfindor, James and Severus becoming friends.

I hate you just a little bit for killing James since I was dreaming about him getting to help raise Snape and Lily's kid but I'll forgive you only because he got reunited with his Harry in death. This story is wonderful! Grindelwald and Dumbledore's love story was wonderful too, I always feel like their ship gets overlooked in the HP fandom and I've always fallen for the tragedy of their love.

Thank you for writing this! I'm glad I got to read it, and I wish you luck on your future writings! Hopefully I can find some of those one day as well.

Here I am commenting before the end again XD

The moment you mentioned the Isle of Skye I opened spotify and played the Outlander theme, and now you mention "Skye Boat Song"? I am loving your references!

The plot is really picking up! I kind of like the fact that Snape seems to be taking Harry's place, more so than I expected. Still very confused about the white stag in Dartmoor, and Snape calling out Harry's name. It's gonna be hard to stop reading this fic to do anything else XD

Did you just quote the genius of What We Do In The Shadows?

If I'm reading long fics for the first time I don't usually review till the last chapter, but I had to say something XD Sirius said that and it triggered my memories immediately. Now I'm picturing the Marauders as the werewolves, acting like idiots and having fun, and I'm picturing Snape as one of the vamps (which he's always compared to anyways) Just imagine the hilarity of him with Viago, Vladislav and Deacon :D

Since I'm commenting might as well also say that I love the story overall until now! I like that you didn't give Snape all of the info the reader has, because it makes sense for him not to have known everything, and it makes it more exciting him having to discover it all. Reading the "Worst Memory" but after all he changed was extremely satisfying. Some fics with the same premise have the memory repeating almost identically which is tragic in a way. But seeing Peter do better, Sirius not tease Severus, James actually invite him to hang out, Lily and Severus have a cute moment, and Remus actually stand up to call James out when he said something stupid was like, the best fix-it I could ever want.

Thanks for still writing in this universe! I love this era so much and you're keeping it alive!

It seems like they forgot to use protection.

Well, what a rollercoaster! I don't know how i stumbled upon this, don't do fanfic as a rule but this was magnificent. OK, some mistakes in grammar etc, but as a non native english speaker, so what? Nothing a good editor wouldn't correct. Just some modern ways of speech crept in, such as '...come with...', In the 70s we would have said '...come with us/me...', but that's just nitpicking. Also (sorry), I got my full car licence mid 60s which entitled me to ride a moped without learner plates, which i did as a student in north London (yes, went to the Roundhouse for 'music'), and a small motorbike forever with l-plates without bothering to take a test. I think learners and young people were restricted to 125cc, (Bonneville is beefy)and learners were stopped by police for carrying a passenger, unless *they* had a full licence. That happened to me. Having read HP as each came out in paperback, and seen the films when they were out on chistmas tv, I fell in love with Snape(well AR really), and on re-reading HP last year was surprised how nasty SS(and Draco) actually were, until the last. So your story has rounded things off really well for me. THANKYOU!

It is more common to say Hast du dich verirrt? in German rather than Bist du verloren?
Bist du verloren? means something like Have you lost yourself?
Sorry. I don't mean to criticise or something. And sorry for my bad english.
Thank you for posting this story. It is very good

I really enjoyed your story.

Hi, I slowly but surely read your fanfiction. I was so excited when I stumbled back on to it and saw that you finished it. It was so exciting to read your fanfiction. I liked how Snape had more interest than magic and potion making. I liked how his Mom was a flushed out character and so we're Lily's parents. I cracked up when Lupin in werewolf form is smoking a joint. I also really enjoyed your authors notes. I liked your transparency about what kept you from updating, and I appreciated your depth of research. You cared enough to let us know when the full moon was! I can't wait to reread your fic, it's definitely one I'll be going back to. Who knows, maybe I'll even send more reviews as I do my reread. Thank you for writing this fic!

Not only was it the brightest in the conatellation Leo, Regulus is known as "the lion's heart" by ancient stargazers. It was a clever thing Rowling did.

Yay ! I reached the end and it was a fantastic ride !
You've delivered a very ambitious and nonetheless good work, and you can be very proud of yourself.
The only thing that bugged me were the typos that I noticed (especially from the second half of the story), but I guess that writing very early in the morning was not easy. I am very impressed that English is not your native language - nor it is mine and I don't think I would ever be able to write such a long and great story.
I really enjoyed how you linked the Arthurians legends with HP original plot, it fits very well and it was very interesting. I loved how you used every detail in the book that is linked to the theme of death, and how everything fits and works well together. The whole story is very well thought, and this is some really smart writing.
The part around the Iron Curtain was also great, even if my lack of knowledge in the matter made it a bit confusing at times. I still haven't understood why they had to cross the border, especially to end up in Austria, which I thought was on the allies side.
Also, I was a bit confused with the next generation ages. When was Ted Lupin born in the timeline? Tonks is much younger than Remus so I assume he was just a baby when Julia, Rosemary and Harry went to Hogwarts. (great names btw).
And, on a more personal note, thank you for your wise words in the last chapter. Being at peace with the people we love or we care about is very important. I wish you all the strength in the world and to be surrounder with loving and caring people all through your grieving process.
Thanks again for these hours of reading.
Take care !
Mrs Moonlight chapter 166 . 5/22
I'm a bit conflicted about this chapter. On one side, I am quite happy to see Vernon getting his ass kicked, on the other side, I feel that Erwin is intruding too much in his daughter's private life. Breaking up with someone should have been her own decision and I'm a bit sad to see Erwin (who is a GREAT character, btw) doing that. I understand that he is old fashioned, a former military and that he is only taking his daughter defense here... But the feminist inside me cringes a little.

I'm still really enjoying reading though. The confrontation with Voldemort was freaking awesome.
