An unlikely series of events causes Sirius Black, Hermione Granger, Ginny Weasley and Luna Lovegood to arrive in 1978. The wizarding world is in all-out war. Regulus Black sits poised to take the Dark Mark. Remus Lupin joins the Order.
All of them have to negotiate a world of danger, death and destruction.
Can they change the fates of the ones they love? Can they save themselves?
3.5 stars. The writing left much to be desired, but the premise is truly fascinating. This is the only time travel fic I've read where the final outcome is truly unpredictable. It doesn't follow the single continuum theory, and actively doing things in the past differently affects the future in unpredictable and curious ways. I liked this work overall, I just think the emotional relationships were a little underdeveloped and stunted, and the philosophising of everything and anything, while fairly well written, was overdone and made the book feel a bit clunky, I suppose.
