    I remember one that was pretty decent, but I have to find it. It was about Harry who on his birthday is taken to Middle Earth by some sort of vortex, and he lives with the elves...staying there for 2000 years as he doesn't age there. He returns with his elven wife, and he goes back to Hogwarts as a teacher I believe, then during a fight with Voldie, he and several of the Order are transported back to Middle Earth after his wife is sort-of-slain (they aren't sure), because he tried to use earth magic or something similar on Voldie, but the Earth's natural magic had been suppressed and he used all his strength forcing it back down or it would have destroyed Hogsmeade. I can't remember too much more, but I also remember Voldie and his gang were transported too, and they're were playing subordinate to Sauron.

    Ah, yes, I remember that one. It started out good, but after his wife died I just lost interest, because I was scared he would get all whiny and depressed.

    Never attempted to read one of these cross overs before... for some reason I didnt think they would be that good. Hrmm, I might be wrong.

    I think his wife wasn't going to stay dead...something about her being from Middle Earth. Would you happen to have a link for that one?

    These are a rare commodity. I’ve been searching high and low for a good crossover and I have yet to encounter better then the ones mentioned here. Don’t get me wrong, there are a lot out there, but most of them are either a slaughter of the one or both series of books, slash, or have awful plots. Some are a transcript of the movies with Harry getting his ass whooped, while others are so idiotic that it makes my brain bleed.

    Alas, the major fall of the good HP/LOTRs crossover stories is that they are now unfinished, especially after the Return of the King was released and the craze in that fandom lessened.

    At the moment I know of four fics that are being currently written. One was extremely good, but I had to drop because the author introduced Legolas in a chapter and suddenly declared that it would be slash. The others are just such a horrible violation of the books that I couldn’t stand them.

    However, if you find any good ones, please let me know. I’m almost to the point of starting to write one myself.

    oh, do that, do that! :) Just might be the kind of project for you, though that would slow your other story dramatically I would assume.

    Not too much, since I already have a lot of the plot in mind. What I’m afraid of is that for it to be any good I will have to extend my word count per chapter significantly, since a crossover with LOTR can’t be lacking in details.

    If I do set to work on this it would be more on the side until Emissary is finished, and to tell you the truth I already have close to 10000 words written down for the first chapter. I just don’t want to publish it quite yet, I still hold out hope that there might be some other good crossover out there.

    And yes, this kind of fic would be just up my alley, I think.

    there was a fairly promising ron-centric one ages ago by water mage I think. but it hasn't been updated for years so it might not be worth bothering

    (All you ron haters.. give it a try anyway, not the ron you know and hate)

    That’s exactly my point; all the good crossovers are either unfinished or abandoned.

    And that fic you mentioned is called Passing Twilight, it has Ron as the center of the story and its supposed to be on Hiatus, but after not being updated since the start of 2004, I would say abandoned is more likely.

    I really haven’t bothered to read it, since I only read WIP’s that are actually being updated.

    Especially, with such a useless post. What an idiotic thing to do.
