Delighted to see this being updated, and it was a pretty good chapter overall. As has been said though, it felt a little rushed, both in terms of plot and technically - it was riddled with typos.

Looking forward to year two though, and looking forward to my reread just as much.

 

Another update. Tell me what you guys think.

 

I liked this update for several reasons: 1) we got to see hints of James/Lily's past (plus the Sirius thing was explained), 2) Dumbledore broke his facade of super-niceness with James, 3) Dumbledore is awesome, and him mentioning Harry like that hints towards more awesomeness, and 4) the whole Mad-Eye/Order of the Phoenix segment was cool, along with Dumbledore later dismissing the Order as a minor nuisance.

I don't have any criticisms for this chapter; overall it was well-written and interesting.

I'm really looking forward to Harry's adventures as he gets older (things can only get more exciting after first year) as well as the cool magic he'll learn. I also hope James debuts whatever brooms he's developing (for some reason I can't wait for this arc to be revealed more), so keep things coming.

 

Great update; whereas the previous one felt a little rushed, this one was just right. Well written, and some fascinating background. Love your Dumbledore, particularly.

 

I'm liking how James' character is being fleshed out. He's not overprotective of Harry, and gives him the space any good father would. Interesting how the Order is still up and running, though it's not very effective without Dumbledore it seems.

Definitely eager for next chapter.
