The summary doesn't do this one justice, I've just started on the third chapter and i'm enthralled; blood, guts, gore, and character deaths galore! This story is ACTUALLY original, it isn't one of the many cookie cutter stories out there, i'm cutting this short because i need to go finish reading it. ITS AMAZING!

 

i read it for a while then lost the link... was good... though .. harry seems a bit too... masocistic to me...

 

I remember reading this one before. I stopped for some reason though. The story is a bit too... army like (?)... for me. I didn't like the changes in the DA. But oh well, I'll go back to it now and see if I'll like it this time.

 

I stopped reading it because the first chapter was Hermione's P.O.V. and the fact that it's H/Hr. I'll try and read it again.

 

Thank goodness I won't.

I read the first chapter, and midway though it I forgot to be annoyed that it was from Hermione's POV because of the more legitimate problem, the rampant OOC-ness.

The D.A. is portrayed as an army - it isn't by any stretch of the imagination.

Yet Hermione refers to herself and Ron as elite squadron leaders. Infantry, squadrons, arbitrary hyphenated numbers, all of these are thrown around. Some random student is spewing military jargon.

Stake meet heart - wait, not yet.

Of course he did!

The actual action was what I have come to expect from FFnet. Almost purely a variation of a '_noun_ of _noun'. 'Flash of light'. 'Burst of energy'. Sometimes an adjective in front of the noun. 'Massive burst of energy.' Does not quite constitute good action.

This is like Tom Clancy meeting Harry Potter. Only one survived that meeting, and it wasn't the latter. Then Mr. Clancy was ambushed and surprise buttsecksed by a House Elf rape-gang. The mpreg baby produced by their union is this story.

So yeah, I conclude that the summary does do the fic justice for once.

1/5

 

um... wow. Andromalius definately just convinced me not to read this story haha. I, as well, hate when the DA turns in to some army and turns 180.

And wtf? Anti-giant gun? I may flip through it just to find out what the fuck thats about.

 

Lol, the story's down. Link is wrong or the author took it down.

 

I read Andro's excerpts, and decided that I honestly don't care if he took it down.

 

This shit needs to get out of the Library.

1/5 for a classic fail!story.

 

The author did the right thing.

 

I agree. Sounded ridiculous to me.

 

Read this a while back, can´t understand what got you so worked up. The blood and gore was uninteresting what with the DA running around and doing most of the work...

 

Blissful Suffering? What kind of title is that?

Story's no longer up, so I won't rate.

 

Read Andromalius's post now that the fic was taken down.

The main major point of contention is the sheer, utter stupidity of an anti-giant musket.

Everyone knows you can only take out a giant with a rocket launcher.

 

A title some 14 y old emo thinks is 'cool'.

And the story sucked giant cawk.
