    Cliche after cliche after cliche had me abandoning this thing after the first chapter.

    1/5 -- if there were half stars this would get 1.5/5

    I was just looking over the new chapter and immediately LMAO!

    For those of you that know as little german as the author:
    It's probably translated by a bad translation program. 'Aufschluss' can mean 'resolve', also 'openness', most often however it refers to doors that are being opened, like in prison or an animal farm. It sounds like public servants slang (prison guards, policemen, clerks), very strange word.

    'Potenz' is 'potential' but more like 'power' or 'capability', as the author might have guessed, but it explicitly refers to the sexual capabilty/ ability/power of a male person.

    I wonder what Harry will make of this Motto. Maybe he'll get hot if someone peeps on him,

    Oh, the AN say it means

    Yeah... this is not badly written, but it's not that interesting. Like Gio said, there are really way too many cliches to take it seriously as anything but a parody (which it's not classified as). It's just not an original story - sorry.

    Eh... im not to happy about the sudden influx of all these indy!Harry fics. Most arent that original, this one... ill have to give it some credit as he does make a twist on the old "indy" routine.

    Verdict: It's an ok read. Go for it if you're desperate but if not... dont.
