Sorted into Slytherin with the whisper of prophecy around her, Hermione refuses to bow down to the blood prejudices that poison the wizarding world. Carving her own path forward, Hermione chooses to make her own destiny, not as a Muggleborn, a halfblood, or as a pureblood... but as a New Blood, and everything the mysterious term means. ((Short chapters, done scene by scene))
So so so sooo good! I marathoned this Harry Potter fan fiction for a solid month or two but tragically there's no more to read at the moment since the author has put the project on pause. Still, it's been a joyous couple thousand pages following the rightful hero of the Potterverse--Hermione Granger--as she navigates wizarding politics, ancient ritual magic, and pureblood elitism.
The only reason I would recommend someone *not* read this fic is because it isn't finished, and realistically it may never be finished. At the time of my writing this review, it's been ~6 months since the last update but Good Lord and Lady, this is worth it even in its current incomplete state. The characters are so much better than Rowling ever did and the richness of the expanded world portrayed here is rewarding beyond measure. I sincerely and earnestly hope that artemisgirl will continue this epic story but even she never does, I'm grateful for she did.
Your writing style and imagery is good but I think you should work on cutting down the length of this fic. I mean, come on .. you haven't even written the fourth year yet and you're already past 1m words!
I think your interpretation of the personalities of JK Rowling's characters is quite accurate but they don't speak or act like they should at their age.
One of the best Harry Potter fan fictions of all time. Amazingly incredible world building with a wonderful community that comes together to speculate on next steps after every chapter is released. Can’t recommend this enough.
Greatly enjoyed book one. I think I'll take a break before the others. Yes, Hermione is a bit of a Mary Sue and all of the boys love her, but she's also fun and bold and I love a chaotic Hermione who still feels true to her character.
