A good ending. My previous review still holds but I liked that you knew how we would react. Women hold the power for now, but there is redemption. That's good enough for me. Of course with all that Harry had been through it's good to see that he remains the Warlock of the Coven.
The first alternate ending spelt doom for the magical community. No redemption and no future.
I liked the second alternate ending. Plenty of potential for another story.
Keep on writing...Author's response
Thanx for bearing with me, what I wanted to show in this fic is a change of attitudes in the Magical World - something lacking in canon IMHO.

Glad to see how things ended up at last, and to see that there could be redemption for the magical world at least. Harry is happy with his ladies, and they all love one another intensely. Really wonderful story here Prof, and as always, here's to you and more of you great writings. I hope you may be able to combine the chapters all into one complete fic one day, so we can read it all the way through. Have a good one.Author's response
Thank you, as always, for reading and reviewing - your comments helped me to see where the story was going, and in some cases, where is should have gone.
You rock!

A fun ending and definitely a twist. I did enjoy the story a lot, and it was very well written
But do you honestly believe all the wizarding world's (and it's a term, get over it) problems would be solved by simply having women in charge? There are bad women, and there are good women. There are bad men, and good men.
Seriously, if you honestly believe that, that men are innately brutal and mean, then you literally are no better than men who think all women are good for is a warm hole and babies.Author's response
Thanks, I think. No, of course I don't believe all women are good - I know there are evil ones out there, you should see some of the vipers I dated. . .
It's a story, glad you liked it.
Move on, now.

I'm that once again my view of the world is confermed. For a couple of years now I have had made observations about feminist, and other groups like the, and thier tendencies to oversimplify in thier quest to put blame. Don't think that I'm not for equality, because I am. And for that reason I can't accept that every man or for that matter human shuld be guilty for what a few individuals do. You can't in any way justify condemning half of the human population, by saying "it was men who started it". This would lead to theconclusion that all males would be guilty of physical assult. And whit this reasoning, the witches in this case shuld also lose their magic because of the crimes of the few.Author's response
Sad but true, entire races, or genders have suffered for the actions of a small percentage. Never said it was fair, it's just the way it is.
My ending has a potential for a fair and just society, but that's never a guarantee, is it?
Glad you liked the story enough to read, and review it.
Time to move on.

Good ending and I think very justified.
As for the omake's I think you have some sequels to maybe work on as I hate when my favorite characters are controlled by a maneviolent being!
Kudos an all of this and I hope you write more though I hope with a more mannagable set of ladies(3-4) for Harry to love!Author's response
Thanx, as always, for reading and reviewing. This tale has certainly sparked some controversy, hasn't it? Good, that means it made some people think.
There is a possibility of a sequel in the future, let's wait and see.

Thanx, and thank you for your encouraging words. Battered hearts is up on this site, I'll try to update that one weekly as well.

Brilliant story, perfesser! Good plot twists. Loved the ending.
However, the second omake could be the set up to a continuing story (like Chamber of Secrets follows Sorcerers/Philosopher Stone, etc.), so why not write a continuation of the omake as though that were the ending of the story?Author's response
Thanx, glad you enjoyed it. The omake were both written by the very talented Seel'vor, who asked if he could take my "Witches are the ones with the magic now" ball and run with it, and I gave him my blessings.
Therefore, a sequel may be in the works - just not by me.
N!
