Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 22 from cloudenstein on October 15, 2009
... I might have mistaken the review for THIS story with the one of the Sword, my mistake.....
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I've been reading non-stop for the past 4 days and need closure T-T.
No pressure at all, there.
Just all the pressure.
Seriously, the story is awesome. A much darker AND greater picture of what time-travel would enrapture.
I think I'm addicted =P
Well, heres to us waiting for life to give us a break long enough to finish our stories. CHEERS!

Good, different - very different. Thanks
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 22 from alibabaandrobbers on September 12, 2009
Now that's what I call Atlantis. Nothing like what we're used from movies or comics. You've made sense with this one in an irrational way and I'm surprised on how well a read it makes. I was expecting to be bored by the description of Atlantis - expecting to read another oh-so-redundant superclean-futuristic-metropolis chapter. Instead, you made Atlantis out to be advanced but historic all the same. Futuristic and ancient. Long past but trendsetting. Good mixture, definitely unique and beyond anything I imagined it to be for myself for the last few weeks.
As much as I like the plot of this one – on account of style, linguistic and “sheer wordpower†you left out a bit. Not that it’s poor language – nor even just average – but you’ve made us expect nothing but superlatives from you. And by that standard, this chapter just doesn’t rock as much as we’re used to. Surely, no one can write one “top-ten-chapter†after another and I’m guessing the time you allowed yourself to complete this chapter was limited. So, don’t be angry at me for pointing out my opinion. You’re still my favourite author and your promise to finish this story means a lot to me.
I’ll be patient. I’ll be grateful. I’ll be faithful.
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 21 from alibabaandrobbers on September 12, 2009
Tell you what! I didn't even want to read the interlude before the next chapter was out - and I didn't. Now that I've finally read it - along with the follow-up chapter, I'm going to give it a review of its own. It surely deserves that much (Have I ever told you that I'm a lazy reviewer. Read about 50 fics and reviewed about 10 - half of which are your stories.).
Man. How did you come up with fucking some (magical) water? Insane! Bullocks! Perverse? Deserving? Anyway, I like it - …gives me the creepers really - …shivering along with Harry. Would you call THAT perverse? Hm, spirit-whore indeed....honestly!
It does explain some of his becoming a timetraveler though. You surely could expand on that. As for the rest of it: Brilliant as always. A bit short though. But then, the wait for the next chapter wasn't too long.
On another note: Thanks for not making this a cliffhanger. I might just read the next interlude straight away then.

Pretty good start to Atlantis. Nice work blending in the flashbacks early on.
Looking forward to more.
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 21 from kcl on August 29, 2009
I just ran across this fascinating story. I want to thank you for such a unique and intriguing plot, one that I couldn't put down once I started. I very much look forward to your next installment.
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 21 from whatareyouevensaying on August 26, 2009
The interlude was much better than it was helpful, and it was reasonably helpful. I'm torn between wanting to know more about Harry's past (if we can call it that) and wanting the story to continue moving FORWARD. Still, one interlude did seem fitting.
Looking forward to more.
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 20 from ReviewerOfTheWest on August 25, 2009
Great stuff. But, I have to wonder exactly why Dumbledore just showed up for the end and is not either sending someone or coming himself. It seems quite unusual for him, and unusual from Harry's memories.
If the Aurors and goblins stayed around as long as they have against everything that Harry put up against them, each other, the Orc-Mares, and everything else, why give up at the last minute? It seems surprising that the Aurors stayed so long (police are rarely trained for war) yet the goblins and hunters they brought left before.
Anyway, please continue.

Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 20 from alibabaandrobbers on July 27, 2009
Breathtaking once again. Awesome eloquence and a seemingly eternal source of imagination make a thrashing combination there. Can't wait to read about Atlantis - to "see" more of those nice pictures you care to paint so delicately with nothing but words. And while I like it - even painfully so - if you use oxymora, how am I supposed to picture someone looking "all at once terrified, horrified, desperately hopeful, and painfully angry!" Well, I guess a such facial expression is just what you get when caught "between forces that defy all understanding of science and reason!" At least Hedwig is still hooting soft sounds of whispered agreement. Pity she can’t come with him, really. Maybe some others can though. More company still arriving? Why else double supplies. - Must be good for something.
There's those few pointers in you story, that also make me believe that Grace isn't who she makes us think she is. Saturnia playing a game of her own devising there?
All in all - you know what I want to say: I just love it! The small teasing and flirting among them more than anything. Just let that relentless headache fade at some point and give him some moments of a clear mind, if only to comfort our believe in him.
Keep doing us proud. Make me cite you. Don't falter. We're on it!
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 20 from Dreams and Starfall on July 21, 2009
This was a great chapter. Great development, action, scenery, descriptions, dialogue, a small kiss scene.
I absolutely love the way you write Fleur. You really make her out to be as graceful and classy as she is meant to be.
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 20 from Vir on July 19, 2009
Can we see a well-rested fully healed Harry get into some action? for 20 chapters now Harry has always been exhausted, and not operating at peak.
Good chapter though. :)
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 20 from whatareyouevensaying on July 19, 2009
I think it's more than a bit of a shame that the Orc Mare killed that one Auror, since it makes Harry's life still more difficult (not because I care). But yeah, the update was as excellent as usual. Even though Harry was acting just about the same as he always is, in this chapter his tone seemed to carry more brash dishonesty than usual. Dunno why it bothered me, but it did.
Looking forward to more.
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 19 from bookmadabs on July 13, 2009
Oh My God!!!
I'm like, in love with you!!!!!!!!!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR WRITING THIS STORY! If this review is a bit eratic, I've stayed up all night, not slept or anything, just so I could read this! :D
Seriously, you're amazing!
Can't wait to read more, to find out if they get out of that battle alive... Update soon, thanks :D
Millions, millions of cyber cookies, cigars... umm... I can't think right now, speechless really but yeah, anything good you can think of, is yours :P
Loads of love,
Abs x
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 1 from malfoie on July 01, 2009
Wow that was intense. Best opener i have read yet.
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 19 from alibabaandrobbers on June 30, 2009
He is back! He is back! He is back! He is back! He is back! He is back! He is back! He is back! HE IS BACK!!!
You just had me jumping around my computer in a kind of Indian tribe dance! So good to hear from you! You had me really scared with the long wait!
Now onto this chapter: Obviously you have gone for bartering your genuine talent for descriptions in turn for quick-witted junks of humor. Did you actually write phrases like: “Ain’t I just full of surprises!†or “I confuse myself!†or “Mild case of demon bitch caused it.†or “I once saw a fight between a bird and a squirrel,†Yes, you did – and you couldn’t possibly have used them in a more fitting context. Beautiful! Ingenious! Sobering (for anyone who thought he had a bit an idea about writing)! You just amaze me. So, nothing new there.
While I’m quite sure that you’ll;
... make the Demon's Light well worth the women’s disbelieve.
… unleash Miguel Blue’s forces into that battle.
… give us some glimpses into Grace Connor’s personality.
… explain why the goblins are already freaking out and deserve to be slaughtered.
... at least let him conjure some new fingers (made form the titanium used in goblin armor?) or provide him with something equally efficacious instead. I mean “mangled fingers�!
I can’t help to keep wondering whether you’ll;
… spice the journey to Atlantis with personalities the likes of Dumbledore, Dermas Trask and/or Sophia Trelà . It might just be my wishful thinking to imagine Dumbledore showing up with an elusive party of dauntless – all determined to join in at whatever cost - at the brink of crossing the border to another world, but I surely enjoyed those characters immensely in your trilogy.
… present us with a catfight soon to come.
… bring up horcruxes in this one.
Hmm, you’ve unleashed my passion for this story. My imagination is surely in tumult. Keep on having that effect.
P.s.: Did I mention that I like Hedwig’s return?
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 19 from Dreams and Starfall on June 28, 2009
A long awaited chapter and a brilliant opening and closing. Decent plot development. We saw a glimpse of his memories from when he dies. (I think) and Jason has arrived and we are getting close to the real grit of the action. Yes. Good development indeed.
Although it does seem like you ascribed too much humanity to Cronos. Even if he's insane I wouldn't think a timeless demi-god of a being would talk like he does. He does seem too much like Harry. How he acts and talks. Like he's taking a page from Harry's personality itself.
All in all, I give this chapter a strong B.
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 19 from whatareyouevensaying on June 28, 2009
It's always hard to assemble my thoughts after a chapter like this, excellent work! Harry is really racking up the physical injuries, hopefully that power/knowledge that he'll apparently get once he reenters Atlantis will allow him to cope a bit better with his considerable injuries. Otherwise it'll just turn into a confusing action movie. Sorta.
Looking forward to more.
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 10 from Lord Mysterious on May 12, 2009
"Talking to Fleur, however, almost flirting with Fleur, made me feel old enough to know better yet too young to care."
Completely by coincidence, while I was reading that part, iTunes shuffled to Anberlin's (Haight St.) song and I was laughing so hard.
Anyway...on to the story. I have enjoyed the story a great deal so far. The writing is crisp with an interesting story weaving in the background.
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 2 from shakiya on May 10, 2009

Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 1 from Chaosborn on April 12, 2009
I am thouroughly impressed with you story thus far. Count me as a fan. I eagerly await the next chapters in your saga. Thankyou for sharing your talent and passion with us.
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 18 from alibabaandrobbers on April 04, 2009
!!! W O W !!!
That's pretty much all I have to say to your fic. Although - not having left a single review throughout the entire story yet - I should. So there goes:
Plot: compelling!; Language: breathtaking!!!; Style: awesome!!; Creativity: groundbreaking!
You’ve done outstanding work with your fanfics before, but this one is just SOOOOO over the top. I can only agree with the assessment of „Dreams and Starfall“ (an accomplished fanfic-author himself – not with the nickname he uses for this site though). - Never read this good a fanfic before and I’ve read dozens! Keep it on and I might just continue to do what’s so typically not me – reread your chapters over and over again!
Let me tell you this however: This story is not going to attract as huge an audience as it should and that’s (in my humble opinion) due to your layout of the prologue. What makes me say that? I have stumbled upon this story before, only to abandon it half way through the prologue. Then I thought this story was mental, confusing, weird - just exhausting. If it hadn’t been for „Dreams and Starfall’s“ (at least I think it was him) recommendation in one of his own fics, I wouldn’t have bothered to restart reading this one. – And I would have missed what’s going to be the best fanfinction story ever, provided you keep your work up to what you delivered so far! DON’T YOU DARE TO PROVE ME WRONG!!! ;-)
So, if you ever feel the urge to boost your feedback on this story, you might want to decide upon a redesign of your prologue first thing. Don’t just bin it. Give it some teasers and maybe start out with a bit of a down-to-earth approach. Something typical readers would be more accustomed to from their fanfic-reading experience. Currently it’s just shaped to scare people off – and that’s a pity really.
Hey, I almost forgot to mention this: I love it how you name your chapters. Just brilliant headlines!
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 18 from whatareyouevensaying on March 19, 2009
I don't have many answers for you, Joe, you're the author! Instead, I have praise. This chapter was great, and though I always dread Harry's conversations with Chronos, I always like them too.
Looking forward to more.
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 17 from ReviewerOfTheWest on February 21, 2009
Great stuff, please continue.
I wonder why Harry has not exploited his alibi. It would seem a rumor or press release or something directed at the right sourced would get some headlines and prevent future grief.
Review for Harry Potter and the Wastelands of Time Chapter 17 from whatareyouevensaying on February 04, 2009
Excellent work with this one. You've successfully reintroduced Tonks without so much as a bump in the road. Really amazing.
Looking forward to more.
