I was rather surprised that this wasn't posted here, as most of his other stories are, and I found it rather refreshing, and hilarious at times. I did notice, however, that this was posted in the "Work By Authors" section of the forum, but I think they're more for critiquing, and not for getting more reads/reviews (on FF.net anyways).

[Dark Syaoran]

Heh. My baby.

I never really felt the need to post it in the library, since it was in the 'Work by Author' but it doesnt really matter. At least someone is thinking of my stories. :)

I think another reason I didnt post it was because I originally started off as a oneshot. It wasnt until later that I began writing more chapters.

[radioactive]

I have to agree, it deserves mention in the library. 5/5, was there ever any doubt?

[Mordecai]

I have to admit to not finding it to be brilliant. Its technically well written, and fairly absorbing. But definately not a shining example of fanfiction or anything like that.

3/5

3/5

BLASPHEMY!

This is 7392740/5. No doubt. Sheer originality, tone and entertainment value bump this from a well-written 3.5/5 to it's current value.

[Dark Lord Rostam]

Dude, no. It's an 6786846164671346357632468675678679754564867/5. I thought you knew. Yeah, anyways, it's fucking awesome. What you talking about Mord, it so fucking fun.

[doc_gerbil]

THE LINK DID NOT WORK FOR ME. yes i know i could just go to the work by author section but damnit. im lazy. infinity +1/5. beat that.

[Dark Lord Gullible]

Infinity^3/5

Beaten! :p

[DarthBill]

Yes, I enjoyed the pyro!Harry, but you all need to stop kissing ass. It's not befitting of a dark lord.

Still; a great story.

[Fuegodefuerza]

One question: Is it kissing ass if you really mean it? Because I honestly and truly love this story.

[DarthBill]

It's kissing ass when you make up a number to give as its rating because a big enough one doesn't exist.

[ip82]

A collection of intenpendent fictlets, ranging from extremely good to above average. Most of them are rather awkwardly attached to the canon, with rather unbelieveable explanations for Harry getting where he is, while being basically a sociopath. But still, sarcastic humor and action, followed by burning everything down in the end has a rather cool taste to it.
4/5

[KeshinNoAkui]

I think out of all of them, the 1st, 3rd, and 5ths are truly worth noting. 1st one just cause it seems plausible, plus the deaths are quite hilarious (from an irony point of view mostly), 3rd cause of how Snape died (along with Hermione), and 5th just cause of Luna's reaction to him being a pyro. =P

I give it 4/5.

i am no dark lord. im a gerbil doctor. therefore i have no real issue kissing ass. Its my job.

[Project Dark Overlord]

Loved the pyro-Harry twist... fire makes everything better :) . Especially, enjoyed the reactions to him when other characters discovered his tendencies. One of the few stories that actually make me laugh anymore.

[Slipher675]

I have liked this story since I first read it a couple months after it was first posted. But it looks like it could actually be made into a whole story instead of just a series of one-shots.

[Calen]

I've read this a few times and have to say, I like. Harry's character is just so amusing and thoroughly sadistic..... I love it! Though it did leave me wishing that this was written as a full length story, continuation with the chapters it does work well as one shots.

5/5.:cool:

[Jon]

Syao's 'baby' is adored by all.

[Dark Syaoran]

Maybe someday, when 'other-stories-that-shall-not-be-named' are complete, I may write a proper Pyro!Harry story. I wouldnt hold your breath, though.

[Amerision]

Ohooh, I'd love to see a story where Harry makes Ginny live up to her "fiery" personality. Literally.

Or even a story where Harry charbroils the Squid for an evening snack.

Howabout a Harry so obsessed with the Goblet of Fire he actually does find a way to get past the age-line, but accidentally enters himself when he tries to burn his papers in it for amusement.

Or a Harry Potter who makes use of that Sun in the DoM.

Or a Harry Potter who won't hesitate to burn off the Dementor's clothes, revealing its true nature - killing everyone around him.

Hey! A Harry Potter who, instead of fighting the boggart, ovens it by setting aflame the cabinent, becoming the first to discover its true nature.

Or a Harry that refuses to enter to lake in the second competition, finding some odd way around it like evaporating its entirety.

Come on Syao!

[Duke of Rothwood]

That would be really cool Syao, if you (or anyone) writes it, I would read it

[tink-on-a-tap]

I've hardly ever laugh this much reading a fic before. Using the Goblet of Fire instead of the dragon would have been better but I still laughed my ass off most of the time.

I don't think I've ever read a pyro Harry, it was an awesome idea.
I absolutely adored Luna's reaction in the DoM. Brilliant.

[Vesvius]

It's true. Fire does make everything better! Even DH!

5/5

[Saint Alia]

Burn! Beautiful story, I will treasure the laughter it brought me forever.
5/5!

[Toujours Pur]

Coming from someone who enjoys a well written, dark humor fic, I greatly enjoyed your twisted sense of humor.

These had to be my some of my favorite lines:

“I said I don’t care about that little stalking bitch. I only came down to see the Basilisk, now where is it?” Riddle stared at him in shock, unable to believe what he’d just heard. “Well?” Harry was getting impatient. “Where is it?”Harry started laughing at Lockhart’s shrill, pained scream. Riddle was staring at Harry in horror. “I have to get one of these as a pet...”and


“I don’t know, but whatever it was, it was dangerous.” Hermione answered, again inscribing a fiery cross on the door.

“That’s not exactly helpful.” Harry said, eying his companions. “Everything in this bloody place is dangerous.”I have more, but you know how long posts can be a pain in the ass to read. ;)

5/5 no question.

[Anubis Rex]

I'm not sure how linear this is meant to be but:

CoS:
Harry smirked before bringing the sword down on the girl’s neck, severing her head clean from her shoulders. A loud screeching met his ears and he turned to see Tom Riddle explode in a shower of light. The diary fluttered to the ground where Harry sent a fireball at it, turning it to ashes, completely destroying the memory.
Looking down at Ginny’s decapitated corpse, he smiled. Blood was pooling around her body in large amounts as her heart continued to beat. A few minutes later it stopped completely. He noticed that her eyes were open, staring at him blankly. He laughed.
DH:
“But I must say, Ginevra’s dress is far too low-cut.”Harry was about to laugh rather loudly, not caring where he was when Ginny suddenly glanced around grinning, winked at Harry, and then quickly faced the front again. Fred and George were very lucky he didn’t spray the backs of their heads with vomit in that moment.
Not sure if I didn't read it after the DH part was done or if I just missed that the first time around. Doesn't matter either way really. Plot hole, or are the chapters less related than I thought? Or, better yet, is there an Inferius!Ginny running around out there?

[Jon]

They're each standalone.

[mathiasgranger]

Having perhaps a bit too much pyromaniac in my personality, I found this to be a vicariously satisfying extension of that. A nice palate cleanser for those that like dark humor.

4.5/5

[Anubis Rex]

They're each standalone.

Okay, my mistake; I was reading it as a continuous piece.

[Pieman]

Okay, my mistake; I was reading it as a continuous piece.
And you only remark on Ginny's reappearance? What about the whole Harry and Dragon killing each other part in the GoF one? :P

One of the funniest stories I've read in the last few months. I am still hoping for a continuation/Extra-scene for the Goblet one. May I suggest burning down the entire maze in the 3rd task, after hot sex with Fleur?

[Anubis Rex]

In my defense I did notice it, but just sort of figured he hadn't really died - as it was a more implicit death - and left it at that. Weak defense, but its all I've got.

[HotIce]

Chapter 3 kicked ass. You should really consider turning this into an actual fic instead of a series of one shots.
