These Harry Potter stories may be clever, funny, romantic, adventurous and/or original - but they all are well-written. Nearly all of these are completed stories, collected and culled over 7 years. I have bookmarked hundreds more; but alas, many great stories were unfinished or abandoned. I won't willingly pass on my disappointments to you. My Favorite Stories list has some good stories still in progress. (I suggest setting to Rated:All, and Sorted:by update.) Peace! |

The Dark Lord's Equal by Lens of Sanity reviews
Years after the Epilogue things look bleak; Harry Potter agrees to go back to the Ministry Battle to change history for the better. Premise; "canon makes sense" though not in the way you think. Fight scenes, humour, romance, magic, and insanity. FINISHED
