A THOUSAND YEARS

I just found this story, and I love it. You manage to keep from having super!Harry casually pwn all. It's great that the various bad guys are smart and capable, too.

Thanks Banner.

Good to see you aboard. I dislike ‘Super Harry!’ stories intensely, as I consider them to be wholly unrealistic. Flaws are what make a character interesting. The only thing that keeps this version of Harry from being ‘Mister Invincible’ is that while he has the power, he doesn’t flaunt it. He’ll have a few occasions where he’ll need it, but other than that, he’s keeping it under wraps.

Bad guys: I also detest the paperdoll bad guys Rowling gave us. That’s one of the reasons I think Books 6 & 7 were ghosted. The villains went from being ‘Dr. Evil’ to something actually resembling villains. I make my baddies able to defeat the good guys, and on occasion, they do.
