You raise an interesting point, the gang of bullies roaming the hall of Hogwarts, are the Griffindors not the Slytherins. The incident where Sirius Black almost kills Severus by trying to feed him to the werewolf, set the seal on my contempt for Dumbeldor. At the very least Black should have been expelled, for his cowardly act betrayal and attempted murder, but no not even a slap on the wrist, and Severus the victim in all this, is left owing a life debt to the leader of the pack of bullies. I hope you will finish this one some day.    

Yeah I can definitely see Severus doing that. Thank goodness he was appalled by horcruxes

What a promising start!!

You are going to finish this one, aren't you?  Or I might have to come over there and smack you upside the head (as you charming Americans are wont to say).  Oh, hang on, I am coming over there.  I can get in a pre-emptive strike! :P

Very compelling and powerful, indeed. The character voice - a young man, still impressionable, but driven by his own desires: a need for revenge and for knowledge/experimentation - was so realistic and so Snape at the same time. Looking forward to reading more!

WOW....just WOW.  Well done.

i like this. you make severus into a human being instead of a cartoon, and i like the idea that he self-educates about horcruxes; that always bothered me in the books - OF COURSE he would've known about horcruxes, he was severus snape for gods sake! anyway, well done, it drew me right in.

Halo !I am interesting whith the start of this story , and would like to see more.pleas forgive my mistakes when you read my review because english is not m maternity leguage.Best regards from Lora.

Oh, this looks like it's going to be a wonderful story!  I especially love the presentation of a more innocent and impressionable Severus throwing up in reaction to Dark Magic, yet pressing on with curiousity and hunger for useful knowledge.  Please tell me that you'll be able to finish this incredibly interesting beginning!
