Reviews For The Refiner's Fire

Reviewer: Aurorofthelight Signed Date: 2021.10.08 - 07:28PM Title: Elegy

Katie Bell. Cho Chang. Roger Davies. Hannah Abbot. Terry Boot. Justin Finch-Fletchley. Michael Corner. Hello knock knock. Not one of these kids died in the actual story including the final battle. Seamus Finnigan also didn't die, genius.

So sad that Seamus and Hannah both died in the battle. At least Madam Bones seems to understand that Dolores Umbridge is not to be trusted now. She is an excellent example of a very evil non death eater.

that was amazing....and thats all i have to say!

P.S. MERLIN! COOL!

Author's Response: Yeah, Merlin IS cool! So much so that I'm using him (well, a variation of him) in my original novels! Glad you enjoyed it!

Very cool. Merlin should be an interesting addition.

I'm bummed about Seamus, though. I like him.

Author's Response: Yeah, i was really bummed about Seamus too, and I missed him in subsequent stories, but if an author only kills off characters nobody cares about, the story loses a lot of its meaning and impact. So somebody "important" had to go, and I wasn't willing to cost Harry his dearest friends, so Ron, Hermione, Ginny and Hagrid all had to be kept safe. Yeah, Merlin's cool - I think you'll like him!

Harry dragging his battered body out of bed to try to help Colin and Seamus gave me goosebumps. So very Harry. The scene with Seamus broke my heart. There were more dead than I gathered from the last chapter. The Ravenclaws really suffered a blow. I loved what Harry said about Cedric meeting Cho when she arrived. Sniff. Merlin - cool. I mean, having a phoenix companion in amazing enough but when he also happens to be the most powerful wizard who ever lived... well, I hope Harry learns a lot from him. Brilliant chapter!

Author's Response: Thanks so much! Yes, it was hard for me to kill off Seamus - I really like him a lot, and missed him when I was writing the sequel to Refiner's. But somebody important had to die for the story to be realistic, and Seamus got the short straw. . .poor guy! And yes, Harry dragging himself out of bed to help others really is "so very Harry". Glad you liked it! Thanks for writing! Abraxan

So sad about Seamus. So many gone and so young.

Author's Response: Yes, I hated killing him off, and I really missed him when I was writing Destiny, but somebody we really cared about had to die for it to be a realistic battle. Seamus got the short straw. . .*sigh* Abraxan

Well, I thought is was excellent, again. One thing though.... "It's Madam Bones, the Minister of Magic"....It should be Mistress of magic because she is a woman. I have come to ignore the word 'lad' everytime it is said....lol. Anyway....I am going to attempt to finish this story today though I think that will be a little difficult....if not today then tomorrow. I have 6 chapters left and I am averaging about 2 an hour. So...hmmm...I go home at 1pm but then I have to leave at 3:45pm for a doctors appt....so...I might, MIGHT be able to finish it and move onto the next one! Great job!!! -Katie

Author's Response: Nope, it's Minister - Margaret Thatcher wasn't "Prime Mistress" of England, LOL!

That was so sweet! And the part where Seamus died made me teary a bit :(, a very well written part making me actually watery! The omniculars tracing back to the battle was a very good idea, I forgot about that part! I can't believe that you can make the whole story actually fit and answer all my questions :). All in all, simply a wonderful story, and i really hope you write more of them in the future after this and your sequel. Thank you! Hope you update soon X-P!

Author's Response: Yeah, that bit makes me teary every time I read it -- it was a real waterworks here while I was writing and editing it! I liked the Omnioculars and thought they'd be quite useful with their record and replay options -- it will be interesting to see if JKR ever does more with them! :-) Glad you liked the chapter! Thanks so much for writing! Abraxan

Oh my god -- I haven't had a chance to read your story for the last week or so, which in a way was a good thing because I got to read three chapters (smile) I know that I have said this before but I am going to say it again, you are a great writer. The amount of history you put into your story, really make you think. You have a fantastic knowledge and understanding for the Harry Potter story, and I truly believe that you could give J.K Rowling a run for her money, if you decide to write your own book (I for one, would buy it) Now, you made me cry. You just happened to kill off two of my favourite characters, Katie Bell and Seamus Finnegan (tears) I understand that during war people die but - what can I say -. I am a big softy, I love seeing a happy ending. Please keep up, your fantastic work and please, please update soon Cheers (brilliant smile) P.S I can breathe freely again (chuckle)

Author's Response: Thank you very much! That's a lovely review! I do work hard to have enough "history" in the fics to make them make sense, to set up the characters and the situations properly, etc. I'm glad you like that! Yes, I do plan to write my own book at some point (that's my goal for when I finish Destiny, the sequel to Refiners). Hopefully I'll find a publisher and be able to let you guys know it's for sale while you still remember who Abraxan is! :-D Yes, I hated killing off Katie and especially Seamus, who I liked VERY much -- but some people had to die for a battle between students and Death Eaters to be realistic. I'm glad you understand why I had to do it. I cried a lot while writing it and every time I edited/polished it! Thanks a lot for a very nice review! Abraxan
