Involves a 100+ Year Old Harry sending an autobiography of his life to his 16 year old self. But he messes up and sends it to his 7 or 8 year old self.

Harry becomes an instrument of the Greater Good and takes matters into his own hands to prevent the future that happened to the Harry in the book. Which means he kills DE's that got off on imperious excuse, Lucius being one of them. Though he does seem a little too mature, and too powerful. After only a year or so of studying magic.

There also seems to be a karma system going on in that for every bad deed he does, he does a good deed. Like right after he kills Lucius, he saves Luna's mother from dieing after her accident.

Hermione is written to prominence in Harry's autobiography, but that can be taken as Harry remembering her fondly and not taking in her bad points. But seeing as how Harry is only eight in the story, the present Hermione you don't see much of. And when you do she's not very impressive (head gear). You see the reason why she's so bossy as thought by the author.

An OC Ghost is Harry's only friend in the future, and that OC still living takes care of Harry after he gets out of the Dursley's.

Slow moving plot in that there's 17 chapters but Harry's only just turned 9 now. But it seems that by the time they get into first year Harry will be able to kill Voldemort. He's been very busy. It's hard to see how this story is going to end. But it is good.

5/5
