Review for Harry Potter and the Marriage Contracts

Harry Potter and the Marriage Contracts

(#) Cateagle 2008-10-28

A good ending with threads tied up nicely (I do feel sorry for Hermione & Justin but that does happen) with a nice touch of humor in the final scene. I do love that they never tell Albus and I figure they, of all people, have the right to "desecrate" his grave. Your scenes with Ginny and Tonks were quite poignant and the reader does feel for them (Ginny's an especially sad case, IMHO). I think the final resolution for Tom was so appropriate and I doubt it's something that Albus ever would've guessed as I doubt he'd have the data to work from, or had forgotten it as "insignificant" since it was pre-Hogwarts for Harry.

All in all, it's been a brilliant story. Cheers.

Author's response

- The Zoo incident was one of the amazingly glaring plot holes that bothered me through out the series. There Harry performed some relatively powerful accidental magic, with no indication that the Obliviators ever responded to do anything about it. While it might be argued that the Dursleys knew about magic Dudder's buddy Piers didn't...
