    Not the best story in the world, and quite slow moving, with annoying!Sirius in, but it passes the time and is an interesting concept.

    I give it 3/5.

    Definitely not for those who don't like Angst!Harry.

    I think because of the concept it is better than average. Of course it depends on the further development of Harry, but its interesting to see how they mess with his mind.

    Not very fast paced and indeed every time I see Sirius act like this I congratulate JKR for the scene with the Veil.

    At the moment I think 3.5/5

    Wasn't this the story that one kid ripped off?

    Before I read it, just how angsty do they get? I'd rather not stumble onto a man hug maraton.....

    wasnt too bad, i enjoyed it really and it will be interesting to see where it goes, if anything its a bit slow for the moment but might start to speed up now, hopefully anyway. 3/5

    Interesting concept. It's the execution that's rather lacking, imho.

    The newest chapter is too short, didn't move the plot forward at all, what with most of it filled with Harry's crying and bitching. This bugs me:

    Perhaps it's understandable, seeing as it's his first kill, but I don't like reading about such an angsty and pussy Harry. 2.5/5 for now.

    Nulli I know you are a Ho. Dont go advertising it around. The extract that Nullify posted made me wary of this story. I'd rate it 3/5

    Yes they are, they say he's a dark wizard but he cries when he kills someone?

    I see this as Harry struggling to fight the darkness and goes back to his superfriends.
