- HP: Cho Chang & the Jasmine Code, by xenokattz.
(Set between Half-Blood Prince & Deathly Hallows) Before returning to help her former schoolmates in the Battle of Hogwarts, Cho Chang fought against Voldemort & his follows in a more covert manner.
-- > Cho doesn't get much love in the books or in fandom, so it's always a great treat to find a Cho-centric story. Especially when it's so interesting and well-written as this one is.
I love the glimpse we're allowed into her life during the seventh book. She's fully fledged out here, and I'd just love to meet this Cho.

With the beginning of Arthur’s reign and the unbanning of sorcery, a new era of communication begins in Albion. Soon even parchment will be obsolete! (Warning: Here be puns.)
