    It's surely interesting. That Harry was controlled was a downside, but maybe it was just to convince him to help her.

    Who are we kidding? Harry's gonna hat it, the author probably could of found another way to convince him. *Sigh* I hate the ones where he's enslaved. The only one of those I like so far is the alter and thats cuz he's still going for conrtol and has pretty decent control as well.

    It was good until this last chapter, but like you all said enslaved!Harry is just annoying. Updates come a bit slow too… I'll probably still follow it for a few chapters to see if it redeems itself, but one more enslaved!Harry scene and it’s gone, well for me anyway.

    Pretty good. I've never before seen a Sabriel/Liriel/Abhorsen crossover, and from what i see so far, this looks like a good one. I'm not crazy about the guns though...

    Sorry to bump an old thread, but college is starting again soon for me and as slow as I am updating, it's going to be even slower simply for the fact I don't have enough time to nitpick things.

    Would somebody (from this forum!) mind beta-ing for me? I'd like to keep the quality of my fic up to my normal standards. Which are pretty damn high now that I think about it. *cringes*

    Don't worry, I have faith in you!

    On another note, is anybody here familiar with the Rio Dijonarra (sp?) area in Brazil? Or Brazil in general?

    After things are sorted out with Mab, that's where I plan on taking Harry to kill the necromancer mention in earliar chapters. Don't get me wrong, I have been to the place; I'm just not very knowledgable about things like streets/roads in Brazil.

    I loved this story and I think the sword and guns only added to it. All the free magic stuff comes from Garth Nix's Abhorsen trilogy.

    While I am glad to get some positive feedback, I should let you know that I update my Yahell! group before anything else.

    I wish I could post more chapters more regularly, but 99% of the time I spend on the computer usually revolves around school stuff. Fun fun.

    This has been OK so far, but you better stop expanding the story and start closing it down; otherwise, it'd take you million words to bring this to a satisfactory conclusion.

    I like it. So there's swords and the dual guns...I like manga and anime. To an extent. The writing is good. I like the Sidhe and swords are kind of hot and I'm not a horrible fangirl about it though, so I'm expecting good things from this. Despite the slow updates.

    It's going to take me a million words anyways. :D But yeah, This is pretty much the extent that it going to expand to; I took me a bit to set up for the plot and everything. If there's one thing you should know about me is that I like complicated plots - and I'm damn good at writing them. Anything else feels like I'm doing it half-arsed and not really putting my effort into it.

    And yes, this will seem a bit complex for while. Stick around; I promise you - you'll enjoy it. ;)

    I just put a new chapter up. It wasn't easy writing it - I think I'll fire my muse. Bitch won't work my hours.

    Great chapter!!

    I love your Harry. He’s oh-so-clever.

    Hoping the next update doesn’t take quite as long …

    Nice. Short but nice. One of my favorite things about this story i like is his personality. So different from the other serious Harry's, it's refreshing.

    I don't the enslaved harry part but im going to follow it for a few more chaps, because if Swimdraconian got the name La croix from where i think he got it there may be a small chance for a bloodlines crossover ..
