Apparation is the leaving Disapparation is the arriving. It's just generally referred to as "apparation". And your flashbacks are cutting into the story. I hope you ease back on them.

All hand guns are illegal in Britain.
I really think you over did it with mrs. Granger being a martial artist extrodinare. I teach martial arts and it takes years to acquire the skill. regards kyoshi

I just reread the first two chapters a year or three after my first exposure to them, and I still can't say enough what a wonderfully evocative introduction they are to the story. Of all the fics I've read, this would make the finest short action film. With all the emphasis on hand-to-hand, you wouldn't even need much in the way of special effects... just a few really well-trained fight coreographers! I adore what you've done with flashback scenes, too... they really help set the tone.

Okay, enough gushing. Thanks again for posting a wonderful read.

This is grate I love it. Is Great Scott, Potter, This is War part two of this story? If it is why are you writting both at once? Anyway I am looking foward to the rest of this work of yours.

Wow! Great chapter! I'm really enjoying this story and glad that you have already posted several more chapters. *grin* I love that the muggles kicked ass! :)

Several DEs, armed with wands, vs. two Muggles, armed with a knife and a machine pistol. And the DEs lose, and lose *permanently*. Not merely *dying* Death Eaters, but very *dead* Death Eaters, killed by two Muggles. If Tom gets *this* piece of news, he's going to be handing out Crucios like door prizes for the next several days.

I don't like writing Riddle, but I might have to after reading this review.

Thanks!

and stabbed the sharpest end deeply through Pew's left eye socket.
-on every read, that is my favorite line in this chapter.

I feel the need to reread this fic after coming across too many where the Grangers are snuffed without so much a whimper.

For another fic of Muggles vs. Magic take a look at http://draco664.fanficauthors.net/The_End/The_End.html.

Thanks for being a long time reader and fan.

I have to imagine I would be able to fight back at least in some way.

Cheers!

There occured the loudest Disapparation noise she had ever heard. It sounded as if time and space were being insulted right there in her sitting room.

This may well be the best description of a first time Apparation that I have ever seen.

Thanks for commenting on this particular bit of phrasing.

I was particularly proud of it, and you are the first to mention it in a review.

I am honored you are reading and reviewing.


Cheers!
