This story is an OK, if slighly unoriginal HP/Stargate crossover. The author is the same one as who wrote Sanctuary of Arda, my favourite HP/LotR crossover around.

If you want to read it then you'll have to join his yahoo group and get it from the files section, but that's not very hard to do as it's an open group. Only 2 chapters so far, but it has promise.

EDIT: If you want to read it but don't want to join his yahoo group, then PM me with your email adress and I'll send it to you.

EDIT2: I should probably add that his yahoo group is rated R/NC-17, cos he's stuck a few pics of naked women on it, including on the front page. You have been warned.

The story is no longer hosted on ff.net. Under its old title "Ring of the Ancients" it is still in the files section of the author's yahoo-group (public group, but age restricted).
Thx to Mordecai for the info.

 

Writing style is okay, but with only two chapters and the main plot still not unveiled, it's hard to know for sure if the fic is good or not. The best thing to do is to wait for more chapters to be released before I can pass judgment.

 

I liked it so far. But isent this roughly how Shezza's stargate crossover begun, I think it also started with harry being kidnapped by Loki...

 

This story looks quite awesome so far!
I have to admit that I like the way the author set things up. I hope we get to read more soon.

 

Hey Syaoran, I have a copy of the stargate story by Shezza88 (the completed version) on my computer. You want it?

 

Oh well. You can't blame a guy for offering. Unless it's explosives. In which case, you can and should blame the guy for offering, but I digress.

 

I read it. It's not as good as Shezza's work, but still pretty good. The fact that is only on a yahoo group is a big turn-off. I give it a 4/5.

 

I just finished reading and its off to a good start. I have also read Shezza's. The vote is that we give it a try though possibly later when it has more chapters and/or it moves to someplace easier to get to. (i.e. fanfiction.net)

 

For those who have read the story.

Is this the same story?

 

Indeed it is. It appears they decided to remake their ff.net profile after the last one was deleted.

 

I like the third chapter, it solves the at least for me annoying problem of having Harry being extremly smart at 12 or 13. I also like the Asgard training Harry.

 

It got updated. It's a good chapter. I cant wait for more plot/story development.

 

Hmm. I really like this story, mind I am horribly biased to anything stargate . . It seams together the two universes as well as any cross-over can.

The beginning seems a bit deus ex machina in that loki finds Harry as he is apparating and doesn't find anyone else. If I was a crazed alien scientist performing illegal experiments and I found a 'perfect' specimen I wouldn't really stop at just having one . . . I find it hard to believe that he wouldn't have at least keyed the computer to look for more of the same energy signals (apparition.) Even if he doesn't keep them because they are inferior to Harry. For example beaming one or two other wizards/witches up scanning them and finding that Harry is more evolved than the others that he kidnapped, possibly due to 'The power he knows not'.

I like the way that he trained himself. The one problem that I am worried about something that hasn't come up yet is how (s)he's going to seam in the newly trained Harry with cool ascended powers into the SGC without going AU. As it will undoubtable go AU She is going to have to introduce a new enemy to balance out power cause Goa'uld aint gonna cut it. Perhaps an early introduction of the Ori?

For others looking to see whether they wanna read this or not. It is a great crossover, but it is that, a crossover in all sense of the word. Not even a mini crossover, a really big one. I don't see the main character interacting with the HP world at all in this story. So if that isn't your cup of tea, move on. If crossover don't bother you and you don't have a hatred of stargate and other scifi shows then you will most likely rate this at least a 3.5 if your being stingy. I would rate it at 4.3ish/5 losing points for the DEM and trying to offset any bias my love of the SG universe may bring to the score board.

Quick note for those who like stargate there is a great fic series about Daniel keeping his powers (relearning them) after he descends. If your interested you can find the first of the series here:

Further, that link is to the ship version (it's Daniel/Sam) rather well done, but I know that some people on these boards dislike anything that has any form of romance in it. To this end he has a separate links in his profile to chapters that have all the romance stuff cut out.

Having gone sufficiently offtopic I'll leave before the Mods notice me . . .

-noticed as I was writing this as I usually only use quick reply, what happened to all the smilies in the advanced editor?

 

This is an o.k. story I just don't like the Idea of a Harry/Stargate cross I mean Harry is the only one to be able to beat voldimort how could he do that when he is off on a differant planet fighting allies "Wraith / Ori.

 

Just thought I'd let people know that, in case you haven't been following it, this story has been steadily updating and is now at a very respectable 80k words.

The plot has really picked up too, though the magical world has almost completely been left behind no. Promises to be a story as good as Shezza's Stargate crossover.
