Arg. This is good. But short. More of a prologue.
Can't wait for more.
Are you going to have Angry!Harry throughout, or is he going to have some semblance of normalcy?
Good work, tho.

Thanks. - If you want to find out about Harry, there's only one thing to do! And who says it's just Harry who's the problem?
An interesting beginning. I like it. And I can imagine Harry & Ginny having a go with one another also. I find the image humorous sometimes. :) I'd like to know what happens next so please update soon. One question: What does the title mean?

If you find H/G rowing amusing, just look out for my next story. It's a variant of this one, but much, much darker.
The title is a Latin saying of unknown origin, and I put a translation into brackets: "Over rough ways to the stars".
Interesting start. How often are you planning on updating? I'm not a patient man. If I have start emailing curses and hexes to keep you writing I will! Just kidding. Looking forward to more.

The story is finished, so I hope that it can be updated every few days.
Oh, and just in case: PROTEGO!
The first few paragraphs seemed really rushed. You covered a lot
of back story really quickly. Just a suggestion, but maybe it
would have been better to expand some of those things into a chapter of
their own or have a longer chapter.
This read like a summary of a chapter rather than a chapter of a
story. I realize you are setting things up and have probably
other areas where you will be focusing on, but thought I should provide
some constructive criticism :)
Looking forward to the next chapter.

I know what you mean, and you're right. And you have anticipated my defence:

Oh, I think this is going to be a very good story. Hee hee, I'm
evil.... but I love the angle of Ginny jumping down Harry's throat
alot. I can't wait to see it there will be a big explosion. How
exciting!

Hush! You're far too observant, but I might surprise you yet.
