    Great story. It's one of the better time travel stories out there and it is fairly original. I like how Harry is starting to become more and more dark/evil. Really good story. 5/5 stars

    Two new chapters up in a week. Still an amazing piece of literature for a 15 year old girl. Judging by her characterization and plot weaving abilities, she'll grow out in one hell of a writter if she keeps this up.

    I've been reading this for a while now and her work just keeps getting better and better. I'm interested in seeing how Harry deals with Hermione after shes spent alot of time to help return him to his own time. That reaction will tell if the rest of the story and the sequel will have any merit at all or if it turns into the rest of the mindless drivel thats out there these days.

    Great new chapter. This is definitively one of the better stories out there. The change from a good Harry to an evil one is just great.

    ´Would be great if it weren't for the spelling and grammar mistakes. As it is, 3.75 stars.

    Brilliant fic. The characterisation and plot are really rather good, and she progresses as a nice pace. The grammar and mistakes are a bit difficult to get past, but not so bad that they ruin it by any means. Nice to see none of that Harry-turns-dark-but-isn't-actually-dark stuff, or nice!misunderstood!Riddle that so often plagues the genre. 5/5

    This has just updated a few days ago. It's a kind of in between chapter, but I liked the interaction between Riddle and Harry, and the change in how the others percieve him. She also introduced the Voldemort's name well too.

    I can't really do much more then restate the opinions of those above me. Good fic. That sums it up.

    5/5

    Updated!

    A half-chapter, with a promise of more.

    I really like this one.

    The pacing is good, the interaction is better, and the whole thing just reads on an almost professional level.

    And the author seems to be getting even better at the Harry-Tom dynamic.

    It had a rough start, but I'm looking forward to what she does.

    4/5

    The update rate is pretty slow, but that is my only problem with this fic. Harry's a dirty killer. And his interaction with Tom is fun.

    Tom's all like, "I bet I know who killed that one guy."

    And Harry's like:
    <<
    >>
    "Maybe..."

    It seems like a damn good idea for a fic, but I only got about half way through the first chapter before the grammar mistakes just got too irritating for me to continue reading.

    I give it a 2/5 for a rather pathetic attempt to write in the english language. If the author would get a beta (or three; with that number of mistakes, they'll want as many editors as possible) and repost an edited version, it would be much more enjoyable.

    From the OP's description it sounds kind of like Death Note, only L is Harry and Light is Riddle. Sounds interesting.

    Yeah, I guess that's a fair description, except Riddle isn't really working against Harry (or is he?) and neither of them is very noble.

    Yeah I know. I just meant it seemed similar in the fact that they are pretending to be friends while trying to figure out the other's secrets. I actually had to drop this fic. It reads like the author flunked out of highschool. I'm not really a grammar nazi, but there comes a point where I can't take it anymore. This fic could do with a minimum of a spell check and a maximum of a beta or two.

    Also, I love your stories IP82, especially Potter's Resistance. Do you plan on updating Potter's Resistance or Yin and Yang anytime soon?

    Well, I think it is a great fanfiction.
    The spelling and grammar is sometimes a little bit off,
    but the plot makes more than up for this.
    I can only say that this story is worth every minute you spend reading it.
    XD:D
