I expected to be disappointed, and guess what? I was. Massively. Final rating is 2.5/5. Plot-holes from hell and an ending that was anti-climactic enough to inspire a drinking binge.

 

The trend I see in the author's stories are to reduce a lot of Harry's friends to shallow and unpleasant tools of the evil Dumbledore. This requires a huge suspension of belief. Even if Harry were a total moron who couldn't see that the people he cares most about, the only friends in his entire life, are utter bastards, we would have to believe that these people were capable of pulling this maskirova off in the first place.

Since they are described as being pushy, arrogant, and rude I can't buy that.

 

i did not like this fic at all.
the whole story was literally a time waste.
so much stuff was redundant. fudge and umbridge's trial did not have to be 3 to 4 chapters long.
the story was not even going anywhere. harry got out of azkaban and took his revenge. thats it.

 

This story came up on another board. Since hpfandom.net merged with AO3 the new link is

Saw the title, checked and realised I favourited this back in the day. Read the first few paragraphs and threw up a little in my mouth. Deleted from favourites. Negative infinity/5.

 

As it goes for revenge fics it sucks.
