TheCauldron reviews
Dumbledore thinks he will rescue Harry from his terrible family, setting himself up as Harry's mentor. Unfortunately for him, somebody else got there first. BAMF!Harry, M for violence, language, child abuse/prostitution, drug use, and all around criminal goings on.

Snow Deep by

A Harry centric and Snape centric story (no slash!). Christmas holidays during Harry's 6th year. Doesn't follow canon pairings, AU after 5th book. A very big thank you to my patient beta-readers TabbyBri and Dragon. Reviews appreciated and cherished.

Harry Potter with the Power the Dark Lord Knows Not by
BakenandEggs reviews
After a summer spent attending Quidditch World Cup games and tutoring sessions, Harry returns to Hogwarts for his fourth year of schooling with plans to study hard, have fun, play Quidditch and become an animagus. Too bad there's a Tournament that gets in the way. The fourth (and final) part in my series, 'Harry Potter in the Claw of the Raven'.

In Tenebris Est Lux by
severedsouls reviews
Snape Mentor fic. Not quite canon until third year, not canon at all past that. Set in sixth year. Voldemort is dead, but Harry is still struggling as Ron turns against him and Harry has to begin the year alone. Luckily a few Slytherins can offer support, but only if Harry is wiling to accept it. Slash, drugs, alcohol, self harm, abusive!Dursleys.

Giving up by
Secre reviews
Harry is at the end of his rope; he's no saviour, he's just a frightened and hurting adolescent who has been asked to do too much. The prophecy was the last straw. Can McGonagall do something now? Or is it too late? Trigger Warnings on individual chapters although suicide is a strong theme.

His Son by
RhiannanT reviews
Severus Snape is well aware that Harry Potter is his son, just as he is aware of the kind of care he receives at the Dursleys. He is also quite certain that the boy is far better off without him. Most of the time. Now, if only he could convince Harry. Takes place Pre-Hogwarts, and then probably into Harry's first year

Corvus Black by
Firazh reviews
What could be worse than a nightmare? Waking up to discover that it was reality, of course. But after finding out Bellatrix was his mother, discovering that the Death Eater who fathered him was Severus Snape almost came as a relief. Deciding to take up his real identity was easy enough ... actually living it, not so much. AU: After fifth year. Sevitus with a twist.

The Murtlap Thief and the Half-Blood Prince by

This is a continuation of the story began in The Murtlap Thief, but it can be read stand-alone as well. This is the story of sixth year, and Snape is attempting to get guardianship of Harry after they have developed a level of trust in the previous book. AU but with a lot of canon compliance. Warnings: Sirius is alive, story contains parental spanking. No slash, no pairings.

A Tale of a Tail by
birdwoman95 reviews
An AU kicking off mostly from where Hagrid picks up Harry, though he's very AU. Some OC, but mostly just independent Harry. No pairings. Rating for some languageish things. Writing is complete, but will add one chapter a week, when I remember to (only 5 or 6 long, can't remember which).

This story explores the idea of what if it had been Harry trying to snitch ingredients from Snape during his fifth year after detentions with Umbridge? What would Snape do if he found out about Umbridge? Warnings: Spanking, some coarse language, somewhat AU but mostly canon compliant. No pairings, no slash.
