Frankly 31 chapters and our hero is still a little chipped, sometimes I feel why you people do not even know the difference between than and then repeatedly ignored, despite many reviews. But most annoying is that the author decides to cripple the hero for most of story after which he becomes super hero

I know that my review is quite late and after this story has been written long ago. But still as you have already said in the beginning so I will not rant about spelling mistakes, though now you must know how important it is to have someone proofread your stories.
No offense, but still it is annoying that author has kept Mr. Potter as a wimpy kid for almost half the story, considering that it is annoying to see him so for most readers.

A well written story with a lot of spelling errors/typo's in the 1st half of the story. Many Americanisms (unsurprisingly!) plus a reference to Jell o, this is virtually unheard of in the UK.

You really need to learn the difference between Then and Than.

Where is Ginny in all of this?

NO said harry with a voice laced with so much conviction it hurt. This dog will not die please just give us a ride to a vet's office. But son these injuries are probably beyond repair leastways without big bucks looked sympathetic but resolute on the destruction of the dog You know if you want oyu can bring your parents into the shelter and buy another dog for cheaper than fixing up this one I want this dog! bellowed harry surprising even himself other then Hedwig his owl harry had never had a pet he'd never been allowed. ive got money. Please take me4 to a vet! He's dying! Harry wished more than anything that he could get ahould of professor Grubbly planks who had mended Hedwig when she said she had been injured. Even madame pomfrey

This is not just against you and your writing, but I take great exception to having Riddle remember about Ginny in the Chamber of Secrets. He was not there, just the fragment of his soul and it was killed when Harry stabbed the Diary with the Basilisk fang. How on Earth would he have learned of it?

I really dislike that everyone writes Ginny as being a poor cook. I think that she would excel at anything she put her mind on, especially for Harry.

When you gonna post the next one:(

I do hope at some point you'll continue with the sequel to this. Would be great to see it wrpaaed up! Thanks again!

Thanks for a truly great read!

I have to agree with previous reviewer, so-tedious' (from 2/2007), comments. The 'trapped in the mind' and recovery plot lines were overdone. It was a bit excruciating reading through all of that.

But, to your credit, I did stick with your story despite your having 'beaten the dead horse' to paste with all of the angry, beaten, self-pitiful, bedridden Harry segments. I liked the way you wrote Neville and Luna. I actually couldn't stand your Harry - he was pitiful: never rose above the self doubt and resentment he had. Neville was more a hero in your story. Harry was a dud-ley. I could believe that the only thing to help him beat Voldie was every one elses live for him. You Harry had no genuine love in him - he was too full of self pity. The real Harry's special weapon was HIS capcity to love - not the love the other characters felt for him. Although, for your Harry I guess he was too consumed with his own self pity that the others had to provide the power of love.

I also kept reading because I thought Tyler, Clover House, and Sashu's fire breathing gift were interesting. I kept hoping with every chapter that you would address these interesting developments. I was sadly disappointed when you did not. These would have made a wonderful story.

You're writiing style is good. The way you tell a story is engaging. Your chosen plot line was horrendous. You got stuck on the most tedious subject and left the golden eggs like clover house off to the side. And yes, that was the lamest of all endings, and it made me feel I had just wasted time reading all 59 excruciating chapters of a story about some thankless kid wallowing in self pity because people cared enough to help him.

I was looking through stories on my favourites list to see what I felt like re-reading today and saw this and thought "Yeaaaah!" - I then read your 2012 update at the top of chapter 1.

THANK YOU for keeping this story up!

Is it a bad thing when I hope the hero dies so this train wreck of a story will end...

Its a bold move having your protagonist cowering in fear...
