Oh yes, totally agree. Great story.

As for other fic of this calibre, well, I haven't found any HP/Buffy crossovers this good, but you must read "The Language that God Speaks" by lizbee, which is HP/Sandman. The link is with my review of it. Potter around on Net-Fic reviews page, you might find other things you like...

Not really familiar with Sandman; not a real Neil Gaiman fan. I've tried reading it, and I give up about half-way through all of his books. I've had a friend accuse me of "not getting it," but that's not it at all; I get it, I'm just not interested.

However, I will check out the Potter Net-Fic reviews page ... and yes, I am getting back to "Transient Reality" very soon. :)

Oh, I can relate to that: I don't "get" Terry Pratchett. And I don't bow down and worship The Great Gaiman -- I do think Sandman is excellent in many places, but there are bits where it gets too much into horror for my taste.

There isn't all that much there; I've been very selective in my HP reading.
