Review for The Return of the Boy Who Lived

The Return of the Boy Who Lived

(#) GryffindorDragon 2008-10-17

I enjoyed this story (though I bit short). The prologue was good. I am a bit disappointed that you basically gave up on it. I can understand your disliking how everything was turning out to easy. But that's ok. Not every story has to be angst-filled and riddled with setbacks for the hero (often to the point that it takes a deus ex machina to save the day). Sometimes it nice to read something where things go right for a change. And wouldn't you expect that if a person had the chance to go back in time and fix what went wrong.

Thanks I appreciate your review. And, one of the major reasons I was having trouble with the story, I hadn't plotted it completely out to an ending, and, when the story started snowballing out of my control (at Halloween) I had no path to get it back to, and the story started to write itself. I realize this sounds strange, but the writers will get what I'm saying. Anyway, it just got to the point that there wasn't anyplace else for the story to go, so I decided to wrap everything up the best I could and move on.

Thanks again for your comments
