Quote: Harry Potter and the Wand of Uru
I've been reading this the last few days. It borders on cracktastic, and the fact that the author is releasing something like two or three
segments a day doesn't hurt.
For those who haven't seen it yet, it's a Potter Peggy Sue -- a post-victory Harry goes back to become his 11-year-old self and do the last seven years
over. The twist here is that he does it accidentally, and he goes back to an 11-year-old self in an alternate timeline where Neville Longbottom is the
Boy-Who-Lived (but not an orphan, his parents survived, and he ended up something like a chubby Draco), and Harry's got a handful of younger siblings. The
schoolmates he knew are different, too, and that keeps him off balance for a while -- an athletic, aggressive Hermione (bookworm
and field hockey
goalie) is just the start. Oh, and it's an Uber!Harry story, too.
The only thing currently grating on me is the author's inclusion of some as-yet unexplained crossover elements.
Why is Illyria from the Buffyverse
attending Hogwarts as an 11-year-old Winifred Burkle? I hope it's not just a "oh it was cool" thing.
