BRILLIANT, BRILLIANT, BRILLIANT!!!!
This is one of the best stories I have read in a long time. Interesting, unique, well written, and thought provoking everything a good story needs it provides. I loved how Harry handled Hermione, the marginalized Ron, how he came into his powers, the paring was also a massive plus (Luna/Harry/Hermione all the way).
The only disappointment that I felt throughout the whole story was the lack of the protective father moment that you hinted at. I would have loved to see your take on the over used cliche of an overly protective father.
Thank you for posting this epic tail. it's so refreshing to see such a brilliant story play out, it reminds me why I fell in love with this fandom to begin with.
I wish you the best of luck and hope that you get many reviews. I will also be looking forward to reading any other writing you post.
