    As you can see, it's quite old and used to be one of my favourite.
    Its link, I found buried in my bookmarks.
    A classic Pre-HBP fanfic, nonetheless it’s an interesting piece of fanfic, too bad it was abandoned.
    I don’t remember much of the story, so please excuse me for the lack of detailed review.

    The author needs to find the enter/space bar on his keyboard, it's so hard to read all bunched up. Too many spelling/grammar mistakes to wade through, (super pet peeve). Could be a pretty good story if it was cleaned up a little, too bad it was abandoned. (another pet peeve)

    This story is... good... but at the same time, i found it disgustingly hard to read. I don't know why but i think its the way he has about 600 2 line paragraphs in his story. I couldn't even finish the first chapter, but of what i read it seemed alright.

    This one needs to go. Aside from the terrible style, there are more cliches in chapter one than I've ever seen in a single chapter: tears for Sirius, 10 million galleon inheritance, shopping trip, super!books from Knockturn Alley, and here's the kicker: he purchases Grindelwald's wand from Ollivander, who for some inconceivable reason just had it lying around his shop.

    After that the story becomes literally unreadable. There are almost no paragraph breaks in the rest of the story, leaving the reader to wade through walls of text that are at least 1,000 words long. It was mercifully abandoned long ago.

    1/5
