This story is very original and enjoyable even though it's short and have many plotholes.
And I didn't forget the link! =)

 

Not a bad fic. The chapters are a little too short. I think I'll wait and see how this continues though.

 

Well, this got to be one of the lamest introductions to an Independant!Harry story I've seen... But still, at least its literate to an extent, and TRYING to be original...

 

Interesting story...short and kinda lame, but original, gotta give credit for that. I'll have to wait and see how it turns out before truly passing judgement.

 

did he spell grey wrong in the title, or is that a different word than the one i am thinking of.

 

Meh...like said before, this is a pretty uninspiring start to an Indy!Harry fic, but it does have some positives. This author writes pretty well, and he has been original...so far, so it's a good way to pass the time. I guess once it gets longer and more developed that it will become much easier to judge, because at the moment it's just a good piece of writing, but not much else.

 

I think gray is how you spell the American version of it, while grey is like the English version (or something like that).
For the story, well, it isn't the worst one I've read. The idea's original, and I actually could understand what was written unlike some other fics. This story is only 3 chapters in as well, so, there's a possibility it'll get better as well.

 

I like the idea of something different. Even if it is all cheap, skip the training, the dead people told me stuff.

Probably what peeves me most though is that it's three chapters, and the first is called "Prologue" while the second one is basically at the same time as the "prologue" and the third, jumps five years later. And even combined all three are barely a respectable chapter length. *sigh*

Points for a decent idea, but this is way too early to tell... well, anything really.

 

it is a good way to spend time, though it only takes 10 minutes.
chapters should be longer. the idea is original and it is certainly not boring.

 

The writing style is OK and the idea is original. Downside is the chapter length. To judge properly I'll have to see how the plot develops, but it doesn't seem to be too bad.

 

Author really needs to add... another 5,000 words to his or her chapters to make it worth while.

 

originak but i didn't like it. The writing style maked it seem that the author is trying too hard to sound good.

 

It's kinda short but seems original. Also why do any of you recommend such short stories???

 

Some short starting stories turn out to be really good as the author moves along and gets the hang of writing.

 

Story link no longer works. The author's profile and other stories remain at ff.net, but this one has disappeared.

Given that it was only three short chapters and everyone felt ambivalent about it, it probably doesn't belong in the library.
