    Wow, another time travel fic... I like said genre however most stories are utter crap...

    Anyway, back to review...

    The nordic axe/hammer-wand the idea is just... moronic in my opinion. The flying part brought some Marvel comic to mind. It still sucks. Seriously, flying with an axe or a hammer?? Voldemort (not to mention Snape) can do it with just a wand... this part simply fails, however if we were to overlook it the rest is acceptable.

    The character of Hermione just made my day. Field hockey playing, violent Hermione. That's surely a new one. I've got this feeling that this story will be pure pureblood/BWL bashing.

    All in all, nothing outstanding, leaning towards dreadful. It IS better than the original written by Silveraegis.
    If it was humor fic, it'd give it a 3. As it is a Romance/Adventure:

    2.5/5

    bleh, this story was already bad when it was written originally. The rewrite, hasn't improved it at all. It's still shallow, overdone in some aspects and too OOC to be believable.

    (Concerning Jock!Hermione that might be fun to read, but it doesn't fit into the story at all)
    One thing that has always annoyed me is the bad characterization of a spoiled BWL. Spoiled, shallow and self-absorbed i can imagine. Bigoted? Not likely... His parents fought Voldemort over this shiet...

    Eh, amusing in its own way and the fucktardness of the author should not be too consequential to the stories... unless they add in some fuckups. Superwand? Urgh. I am fond of SuperHarry however and at least that can make sense. A wand is merely the extension of the power, the focus.

    Ideas are there but i round up to a 3/10. Blah.

    Wow. I sort of kind of secretly liked the original... This makes me want to kill puppies. Outside of the obvious Neville issue the writing is just bland to me. Nothing sticks out on its on unless its a retarded idea; IE Neville/Wand/Axe thing.

    And speaking of the Flying Axe thing.... Is anyone but me reminded of the old Thor comic?

    Ok, I can only add one thing to this:

    Hermione is a nympho? No! Hermione is asexual - her grades and studies come first. This is the same person who gave us such gems as "We could have been killed, or worse, expelled!"

    She will not turn into the whore just because Ron asked her out.

    Harry creates an image of fucking a redhead woman doggy-style, and uses it to traumatize Snape during a Legilimency attack.

    And it works great! Whatever Snape expected to find by mind-raping a little boy, it really wasn't this!

    Decent read, on plus things we have:
    - no terrible grammar/spelling errors,
    - my favourite genre.
    What I didn't like:
    - illogical plot (I can't see Harry not sharing his real identity with someone),
    - HPGW pairing (in first chapters, at least).

    Overall I'll keep reading updates, hoping this Ginny will use love potion to ensnare her universe's BWL.

    Btw, 2 months here and I suddenly can't stand HPGW pairing.

    edit: I forgot: 3(rounded)/5
