Reviews for By the Pricking of my Thumbs
INH chapter 12 . 7/10/2004
Very well written, interesting on the emphasis on the twins in this and AMIP.

kudos on a well written story
dementorchic chapter 12 . 3/9/2004
Aww, poor Ginny. That was a very well written sequel to the awesome 'Paradox'. Great job, I love the way you wrote the Harry/Ginny, and the angst with the other characters. Fabulous writing.
Episteme chapter 8 . 4/4/2003
I love your story! I'm trying to figure out the whole 'mystery' thing here-I think Marcus and Katia both have some kind of magic, and are working to get Harry and Ginny apart. Thats my only guess, so far, though. Is Katia actually Cho, or a relative of Cho? You already have the epilogue posted, and I'm just assuming its the end of the story, so I'll quit rambling and finish reading it!

Hi Dick Wrightman,

Thanks very much for your kind words with regard to this and the other HP fanfics in the trilogy. The first one (AMIP) is currently being beta-read for publication on Gryffindor Tower. The process (new to me) is really making me think!

I'm afraid AMIP is the first of the series and is likely to remain so. Apart from Harry's Dilemma, which is a stand-alone and not in the same world, I have not yet tackled the Final Battle except in retrospect. Perhaps I will some time, I don't know. Watch this space!

Thanks again for your interest.
Dick Wightman chapter 1 . 2/9/2003
i havae collected more than 70 novel length fanfics at this point. I reveiw and rate each one for future reference and recommendation to others. Here is the reveiw/rating I put in the cover of this one... very early in the am this morning...

Wow! What a work this trilogy is! many threads, many new concepts, all woven skillfully and thrillingly together. The richness of the storytelling and the care with which all threads are brought to conclusions believable within the construct is positive treat for the reader. Clearly aimed at adult audiences, not PG or even PG13, but there is no really objectionable material, just some very heavy themes. standard of editing is much higher than on most fanfics.

My only question is that references to earlier events involving the defeat of Voldemort (don't want to give them away here) led me to think there might have been an earlier book, but I can't find same. I'd really appreciate a confirmation on this issue.

I hope you keep writing.

Gemini8 chapter 12 . 7/16/2001
Wow, this was excellent! I love the dialogue and interaction between the characters; it was very well done. I think that was definitely one of your strongest points. Looking forward to that next story that you've mentioned.
DarkKnight not signed in sorry chapter 12 . 7/7/2001
I have to admit, I am a die hard Draco/Ginny shipper. But I still absolutely loved this story. It was beautifully written, and had absolutely everything in it; humor, mystery, romance, and adventure. And I'm glad that you made Draco human, instead of a completely cold-hearted death eater. I can't wait for the next story you have in the works, you'll definitely be going on my author alert. I hope you publish it soon.

cool
iggly wiggly chapter 11 . 6/12/2001
alright. me being a careless b*tch, i forgot to review. well, i reviewed, but it was, like, one word. so anyway. VERY, VERY GOOD! i'm very pleased with the way it ended-not perfect, because it will take ginny time to recover, and emotional scars will probably always remain, but we now that at least for now(until penpusher decides to mess with the characters some more, LOL)things are starting to look up. i would've killed you if it had been totally mushy at the end. now, returning to my original post here on fanfics...write another one! hurry up! D
Jill Fleming chapter 12 . 5/16/2001
I love the story! Both this one and The one before it! I eageraly await the next one concerning Ginny and Harry!
PJ Babington chapter 12 . 5/16/2001
I'm glad you got everyone home safely while I was away! Now are you going to explorethe mind-bonding a bit more in Book 3? And do we have to anticpate a looong pause while you get it plotted out and spend a bit of time on real life? If so, you'd better warn Iggly-Wiggly in advance! I liked the last two parts a lot. They tied up the loose ends without overstreching the plot devices. It would have been more satisfying if you had been able to give us a better insight in Draco previously though - I agree with Keith that he seemed to let Ginny off the hook too easily since it was his plan and he is bound to get it in the neck for letting it fail. Otherwise I have nothing but respect for your characterisations. On to Book 3!
Anne chapter 12 . 5/15/2001
So, c'est fini. That's all folks - and all that. Well, you brought it to a definite close; but if you say you can get another story out of them - go for it! I think one of the most moving lines was: '“When I was training,” he began, steepling his fingers, “I did a study into the effects of torture on victims – notably the Cruciatus curse, of course, but also cruder more physical methods. Lamentably, there is a great deal of study material to be had in this world.”' Sad though it is, there's a lot of truth in that and it sort of hit home with me - kudos for a job well done.
R chapter 12 . 5/15/2001

ReGina chapter 12 . 5/15/2001
I really love those stories of yours! They are just the greatest... *bowing in your greatness* You will make my year if you write another story about the gang.
