Madam Lurker’s Fic Recommendations (pg. 01)
Please note: this is a work in progress; I will be continually adding and updating so please come back often. Rather than having to contend with a legend and various shapes I’ll just be adding a note after the author’s story summary that will include why I like it, what I found annoying/interesting about the story, any additional warnings, spoilers and the like. Also, the stories won't be in any particular order, but I will try to group an author’s stories together if I have more than one story by the same author.

ML Note: Well… what to say… These are the first Voldemort/Harry stories I’ve read that I really enjoy, and really got into easily. A few parts I felt like hiding in the closet from, but I pressed on and wasn’t disappointed. Voldemort is still his dastardly self, Harry is a monster (hah! Not literally) and completely loveable, but he also gets into the dark! Harry persona in a good way and does it believably!

Story: Graduation Plans complete, Words: 21144

Story: How Severus Snape Spends His Summer Hols WIP (updated regularly with nice & long chapters), Words: 352167
Summary: This is a story that revolves around an alternate life that had been lived by Severus Snape in the US while he was spying for the Light. Now that Voldemort is dead, he has opted to show this life to his lover, Harry Potter. Oh and by the by...there are Harleys and all sorts of goodies involved. It is a perpetual fic. If people here seem to like the first chapter, I will continue to post on a daily basis.
Genres: Angst/Tragedy, Romance, Humor/Parody, Drama, Alternate Universe
Rating: M+ (equivalent: R … in some places I would even say NC17)
Warnings: Violence, Adult Language, Sexual Situations, BDSM, MPreg, Non-con (rape), Self harm, OOC-ness
ML Note: This is fic is one of the few D/s fics I’ve ever read, never mind followed diligently since the first chapter. I myself have had some challenges reading this as I chaff at the very thought of being submissive - I just haven't got that sort of trust in people that it takes to be a sub, never mind being a Dom; I’d probably freak out the minute punishment (weather giving or receiving) was mentioned - I don’t do pain of any kind. This story is very in depth, very well written, and it’s given me a whole different perspective on the D/s life style.

Summary: After the Battle of the Tower, Bill Weasley finds he needs to redefine himself. Over the course of the fic, the two move from a preslash relationship forward. BW/HP
Genres: Romance
Rating: M (equivalent: PG15/Mature)
Warnings: Adult Language, Sexual Situations, Spoilers (for HBP I believe)
ML Note: A little sappy (in parts) but well done, it’s hard to find well done Harry/Bill stories because of their age gap (I think) and because they hadn't been around each other much. A lot is just told from Bill and Harry’s perspective (but not a personal POV just from where they are in the story, it doesn’t focus on the other weasley’s much or anyone else for that matter).
Author: Vallon
Story: Ange de la morte (Angel of Comforting Death) WIP (updated about once a month, but nice long chapters to make up for it), Words: 47412

Genres: Angst/Tragedy, Romance, Alternate Universe, Horror/Supernatural, Hurt/Comfort
Rating: MV (equivalent: NC17)
Warnings: Violence, Adult Language, Sexual Situations, Chan, Non-con (rape), Character Death, OOC-ness (implied incest, but it isn't really… read it and you’ll understand that)
ML Note: This one is well worth the wait, it’s well written, the concept is believable, and Harry isn't Super Power, or indestructible. And I LOVE her Death.

Rating: M (equivalent: PG15/Mature)
Warnings: Sexual Situations, OOC-ness, RAPE, Violence
ML Name: I’ve literally cried in parts, Harry here is very… tragic I suppose but not in the over done teenaged angst sort of way, the Severitus part is done very well, Snape is still snarky, but he is definitely OOC but so is Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Bill (although, I don’t know if he classifies as OOC as I don’t think his character was gone into very much in the books - It’s been a while since I’ve read 1-4, I just couldn’t do 5 knowing Sirius was killed in the end). If you aren’t a Dumbledore fan, I say definitely go for this one, he gets every bit of what he deserves here! SLASH fic!!!

Rating: G+ (equivalent: PG13 - only because of the language really)
Warnings: Adult Language
ML Note: Very well written, this is one of the first HP/SG1 crossovers that I read, and I was immediately drawn in and captivated - I thought Daniel/Harry was very in character as was Jack. It’s very believably written, and something I would recommend to someone who hadn't yet read an hp/sg1 crossover but had been considering it. this is a Gen fic!!!!

Rating: MV (equivalent: NC17)

Genres: General Fanfiction
Rating: FR13 (equivalent: PG13)
Warnings: Language, Violence
ML Note: this one is well done, it does pop around a bit to give the view of Hogwarts and BTVS gang, but it’s labeled well so you don’t get confused. Dumbledore is a bit of a … well meddling old man in this one but it isn't clear if it’s in a malicious way yet or not.

Summary: Who knew the surprises one little invitation could bring?RWHP SSSBRL CWHG DMGW
Genres: General
Rating: M (equivalent: PG15/Mature)
Warnings: mentions of abuse, minor language, violence
ML Note: I'm just going to give this one note for this author. I really enjoy these stories, he updates fairly often, and they’re written well; a big plus is they’re also in the realm of possibilities (for the verse’s of course). Some minor spelling or grammatical errors may be found but they’re really minor and not something I would pitch a fit over, unless that sort of thing really gets to you.

Story: Little Wolf complete, Words: 39647

Author: FaramirMorning
Story: Autumn Skies Complete. Words: 62320
Summary: The sequel to 'Little Wolf'. Three years after Harry and Cara first meet they now prepare to move onto the next stage of their lives and the past begins to repeat itself.
Genres: Romance, Drama
Rating: Guilty (equivalent: R)
Warnings: Spoilers (up to OOTP)
ML Note: Both are well done (although, there is grammar/spelling errors… she may need someone to beta), yeah, fluffy on both parts but very good stories. Her OMC is very well done and thought out. I just love Cara to pieces and want to smother him in hugs and kisses. Her werewolf information is very different than the usual werewolf stories I’ve read, and the big plus is that Cara isn't a total Mary-Sue! Harry is a little bit on the super power side but not too much. Overall, these two have become some of my very favorite stories, and I hope you (any of you) give it a read! SLASH fic!!! Harry/OMC
Author: Jeconais
Story: This Means War WIP (Hiatus I believe…), Word Count: 169,892
Summary: When the Weasley Boys interfere in Ginny's relationship with Dean, they make the biggest mistake of their lives. The witch decides that revenge is in order, and her first point of call is a new boyfriend - Harry.
Genres: Action/Adventure, Comedy, Romance
Rating: Teen (equivalent: PG13)
Warnings: Spoilers (Up to OOTP but Sirius is alive - grin-)
ML Note: This is a VERY funny story, it’s also romantic and has a bit of action/adventure mixed in. Jeconais goes through a VERY thorou beta period (the story goes through many beta’s as it gets edited for content, spelling/grammar, and timeline/sequential accuracy), so if you are a stickler for that sort of think you’ll love him to death! Although, this one is on a hiatus, so unless you’re willing to wait for him to finish…
Author: Jeconais
Story: Hope WIP (updated about… once a month I suppose but long chapters!), Word Count: 137,610
Summary: A man who is lost in his own country. A girl who needs her mate to survive. A tale of Quidditch and romance, of anger and betrayal, of friendship and enmity. A story of the power of hope.
Genres: Action/Adventure, Fluff
Rating: Teen (equivalent: PG13)
Warnings: Spoilers, not for Dumbledore lovers!
ML Note: To be honest, I was a little skeptical about this one at first, but then I sat down and gave it my undivided attention… Wow. It’s really well done (he doesn’t skimp on the beta phase!) the Veela thing is actually believable, but in some parts I must admit I cringe a little! Snape and Malfoy (the younger) are really in character, but if you love Dumbledore I wouldn’t suggest you read this. Not that he’s bashed heavily, but it doesn’t put him in a pretty light.
Author: the-dreamer
Story: The Awakening of a Magus WIP (updated every few months, but long and detailed chapters), 246177 words
Summary: In the summer after the Triwizarding Tournament, Harry suddenly awakens to new powers and a new look. However, the powers of a Magus aren't so easy to control, and they don't make life easy. Voldemort is much more powerful than ever. Some new characters come into the picture, some old characters will not survive, and other old characters will learn a new outlook. No slash, O/C but no Mary-Sue, light R/Hr ship, possible other light ships, light Harry/Tonks
Genres: Drama/General
Rating: PG13
Warnings: Super Power Harry (but with in reason), some violence, maybe some fluff
ML Note: A very well written story! For those of you who detest WIPS; I my self an leery about WIPS, especially those that don’t get updated often, but this one really and truly is worth the wait. Her chapters are of a nice length and are very detailed, and keep your attention very well. And if you aren’t into the Harry/Tonks ship because Tonks is what… 7 years old? Or there abouts… this one explains why it’s a bit more accepted - I won't say here because I think it’d give away a major spoiler for the story, but suffice to say it does make allowance for the ship very nicely. (For those of you who are very adamant about grammar/spelling, the story is really well done - I’ve yet to come across any major spelling or grammatical errors, and if they are there they aren’t noticeable).

ML Note: this one is well done, it does pop around a bit to give the view of Hogwarts and BTVS gang, but it’s labeled well so you don’t get confused. Dumbledore is a bit of a … well meddling old man in this one but it isn't clear if it’s in a malicious way yet or not.

Genres: General
Rating: M (equivalent: PG15/Mature)
Warnings: mentions of abuse, minor language, violence
ML Note: I'm just going to give this one note for this author. I really enjoy these stories, he updates fairly often, and they’re written well; a big plus is they’re also in the realm of possibilities (for the verse’s of course). Some minor spelling or grammatical errors may be found but they’re really minor and not something I would pitch a fit over, unless that sort of thing really gets to you.

Story: Little Wolf complete, Words: 39647

Story: Autumn Skies Complete. Words: 62320
Summary: The sequel to 'Little Wolf'. Three years after Harry and Cara first meet they now prepare to move onto the next stage of their lives and the past begins to repeat itself.
Genres: Romance, Drama
Rating: Guilty (equivalent: R)
Warnings: Spoilers (up to OOTP)
ML Note: Both are well done (although, there is grammar/spelling errors… she may need someone to beta), yeah, fluffy on both parts but very good stories. Her OMC is very well done and thought out. I just love Cara to pieces and want to smother him in hugs and kisses. Her werewolf information is very different than the usual werewolf stories I’ve read, and the big plus is that Cara isn't a total Mary-Sue! Harry is a little bit on the super power side but not too much. Overall, these two have become some of my very favorite stories, and I hope you (any of you) give it a read! SLASH fic!!! Harry/OMC

Story: This Means War WIP (Hiatus I believe…), Word Count: 169,892
Summary: When the Weasley Boys interfere in Ginny's relationship with Dean, they make the biggest mistake of their lives. The witch decides that revenge is in order, and her first point of call is a new boyfriend - Harry.
Genres: Action/Adventure, Comedy, Romance
Rating: Teen (equivalent: PG13)
Warnings: Spoilers (Up to OOTP but Sirius is alive - grin-)
ML Note: This is a VERY funny story, it’s also romantic and has a bit of action/adventure mixed in. Jeconais goes through a VERY thorou beta period (the story goes through many beta’s as it gets edited for content, spelling/grammar, and timeline/sequential accuracy), so if you are a stickler for that sort of think you’ll love him to death! Although, this one is on a hiatus, so unless you’re willing to wait for him to finish…
Author: Jeconais
Story: Hope WIP (updated about… once a month I suppose but long chapters!), Word Count: 137,610
Summary: A man who is lost in his own country. A girl who needs her mate to survive. A tale of Quidditch and romance, of anger and betrayal, of friendship and enmity. A story of the power of hope.
Genres: Action/Adventure, Fluff
Rating: Teen (equivalent: PG13)
Warnings: Spoilers, not for Dumbledore lovers!
ML Note: To be honest, I was a little skeptical about this one at first, but then I sat down and gave it my undivided attention… Wow. It’s really well done (he doesn’t skimp on the beta phase!) the Veela thing is actually believable, but in some parts I must admit I cringe a little! Snape and Malfoy (the younger) are really in character, but if you love Dumbledore I wouldn’t suggest you read this. Not that he’s bashed heavily, but it doesn’t put him in a pretty light.

Story: The Awakening of a Magus WIP (updated every few months, but long and detailed chapters), 246177 words
Summary: In the summer after the Triwizarding Tournament, Harry suddenly awakens to new powers and a new look. However, the powers of a Magus aren't so easy to control, and they don't make life easy. Voldemort is much more powerful than ever. Some new characters come into the picture, some old characters will not survive, and other old characters will learn a new outlook. No slash, O/C but no Mary-Sue, light R/Hr ship, possible other light ships, light Harry/Tonks
Genres: Drama/General
Rating: PG13
Warnings: Super Power Harry (but with in reason), some violence, maybe some fluff
ML Note: A very well written story! For those of you who detest WIPS; I my self an leery about WIPS, especially those that don’t get updated often, but this one really and truly is worth the wait. Her chapters are of a nice length and are very detailed, and keep your attention very well. And if you aren’t into the Harry/Tonks ship because Tonks is what… 7 years old? Or there abouts… this one explains why it’s a bit more accepted - I won't say here because I think it’d give away a major spoiler for the story, but suffice to say it does make allowance for the ship very nicely. (For those of you who are very adamant about grammar/spelling, the story is really well done - I’ve yet to come across any major spelling or grammatical errors, and if they are there they aren’t noticeable).
