    Harry's altogether too rational. Had I been Voldemort in chapter 8, I would have killed the patronizing little shit.

    3/5 All things considered, it's still a good story.

    Hmmm, I remember reading the early parts of this, and finding it reasonably boring. Unlike most stories however, I am actually enjoying it a lot more since he finally got to hogwarts.

    Rationality = ++ for me.

    Voldemort kinda sounds like an idiot. I was expecting him to sound a little more refined.

    He's not the type I see indulging an eleven year old's mind games either.

    Particularly the one that put him in exile. I mean, everything Voldemort accomplised has to be redone all over again. Not to mention the indignity of being wrapped up in someone's bad turbanware.

    You'd think Voldemort would be a bit more pissed.

    Eh, this is a more rational Voldemort. Canon Voldemort seems to blame Harry for his mistakes, whereas this one seems to recognize that he should have at least listened to the entirety of the prophecy before acting. Of course, I'm just guessing, and there's a good chance that I'm wrong. Probably shouldn't take my word for it.
