Wednesday 4th May 2005 22:05 | Harry Potter and the Torch of Caelum | Better on the dialogue.
This has been, without a doubt, the longest fic I've read without Harry
having nighmares, attacks by Voldemort himself (four attacks on
students? Is that all?), or other dark themes. It's as if you're making
a fluff story, with Harry as a do-goodie-goodie that has no emotional
scars at all from his last year. Sure, being the richest guy in the
school has its perks, along with a butler who can turn himself into a
crow and spout off centuries of your geneology - but come on! Harry
Potterverse isn't this chummy! Even Jeconais' work had some dark
moments in it, and you've sidestepped it all! What gives?
One las note: The Quidditch match had one inconsistency. I don't see
ONE hour for a team to score only 4 goals IF the Slytherins are that
bad. I expected the score to be a bit more lopsided than that. Or the
snitch caught early.
I'm going to stick with this story until the end. I'm patiently waiting
for WHY this story has been named suchly, and for the other characters
you've dropped oh, so long ago, to resurface and make an appearance.
