Mostly posted it because i liked his first story way back when it was first posted. I also enjoy the Harry/Bellatrix ship.

Time travel fic, not sure i like the get the wand from family vault, hopefully, it doesn't have a list of being owned by super-powered ancestors, or that he suddenly finds out from the goblins he is the heir to several ancient magical lines. If it avoids those it could be a rather good fic, too early to give a number rating yet.

Care to give us a bit more information on the story from your point of view? I've seen this many times on FF.net when looking to see if there have been H/Bella updates, but the summary just never made it enticing enough to actually read.

 

Then too early to submit to For Review yet, you idiot.

 

Nice start. His last name is a nice touch and I like how Harry's shown to be mature. The coming Dumbledore talk though will either make or break the fic.

 

This fic has potential.

Unfortunately that is mostly because I happen to like Harry/Bellatrix, and not because any real accomplishments on the fic's part. The characters are all OoC, and I'm half-way expecting Dumbledore to open the upcoming conversation by "What the hell were you doing, you motherfuckers?"

I will wait at least a few chapters more before rating the fic, but if I had to vote now, I would give it three stars.

 

I like it, although I wish there was more than two chapters. I especially like the title "must be destroyed"

 

Not bad at all. The author can't do witty banter to save his life, and Voldemort hunting down a few survivors after having destroyed the Order and the Ministry before executing Harry, the greatest existing threat, is contrived as hell.

The writing's generally good though.

3/5

 

I liked what is there of it so far. Level of writing is good, but not mindblowingly awesome. Environments are sparse and the general story telling is more or less skeletal. You don't really feel immersed. I feel that the introductory chapters are important in building the 'world' of the story, and that wasn't really done here.

I enjoy time travel fics and this seems like it will develop into a guilty pleasure if nothing else. Several cliches have already popped up, and like Random said characters are all oc.

I believe this will be Harry becomes his parent's teacher type deals, which is usually a turn off for me. Probably because I haven't seen it done well.

Anyway, just two chapters, it's got me interested enough to look for updates but I can't give it an endorsement yet. 3/5 as it stands, but I expect will go to 4/5.

 

I read it, but I can't say I was all that impressed with the first two chapters. As Andromalius said, the author is awful with witty banter - in fact, the dialogue is the worst part of the story thus far. It does have redeeming qualities and a potential to get better, but most of that comes due to the rare pairing.

Is the Earl of the North any good? Regardless, this one will probably follow a similar path as that story, no matter how the author says they are different.

I'll hold off on rating this, as it probably shouldn't be in For Review to start with, but if I had to, I wouldn't give it above a 3/5 as is.

 

In 2006? Without a doubt

Now? Guilty pleasure at best

 

This is COMPLETELY AVERAGE!!!!
awesome bold to make story remotely epic

 

For now at any rate... It does have some potential to become a fairly good fic.... Just gotta wait and see how the author writes up the future chapters...

 

It updated. We have had the Dumbledore meets AU Harry scene.

So apparently young Bellatrix Black is a gestalt of Hermione, Ron, Ginny, and the twins, in the authors' words. (facepalm). Why is it that whenever there is someone curious about magic in HP fandom s/he has to be compared to Hermione. It would seem as if the only one actually interested in magic in all of Harry Potter was Hermione Granger and has forevermore claimed all rights to be excited about it. (/rant)

Anywho, for someone who has just sprung out of captivity from god knows how long Harry is way too well put together. Bellatrix is already flat, using muggle phrases and cussing - oh yes, there is love in the air. Abusive ooc lover stereotype here we come.

A couple of original characters were introduced and took up a lot of time in the chapter, I suppose they will be important.

So far my hopes for this getting better are not materializing. That said, it is three chapters long.

 

It doesn't matter whether this is three or thirty chapters, it won't get better.

2/5 now. Hopes got shot down remarkably fast.

 

An average story that might have been considered good a few years back.

2/5 from me as well.

 

As far as I can tell, the only people in canon that are remotely interested in and curious about magic are Voldemort and Hermione.

Anyway, while it's not library worthy, it's not heinous. I'll give it a 3/5 for the recycle bin.

 

What about Dumbledore? Or perhaps Snape. Even the Marauders. All of them were curious and interested in magic.

 

Uhh, I would think that when talking about canon characters interested in magic, the Weasley twins would spring to mind fairly quickly, what with all the, you know, inventing they did with their joke shop stuff.

 

This is now BELOW AVERAGE!
Read what N wrote. I don't go for abusive girls in stories that act ooc.

 

Good Potential, but is running some serious cliche' including Deus Ex time travel Device and 'UBER' wand.

3.5/5 if I rated it, but very much to short to do that.

Edit: 'Ladykiller' Harry is pretty standard for IndyTimeTravel!Harry stories too.
