Marauders and Lily |
OK,so I was more than simply excited when I came back from school and my sister, Muniba told me about this absolutely amazing,fabulous thing anyone could ever think of doing, and that is writing a prequel to the most magical of series,(drum roll,please) Harry Potter! Its all about Sirius's, James's,Lily's, Remus's, Wormtail's and some sissy friends of lily's childhood. The snogging part is a bit nauseating but it gets alright when you learn to skim those. The characters obviously do not have the Joanne-ish touch in them but HELL, THEY ARE THERE,ALL OF THEM!!! Okay, so i might be getting a little carried away but try to understand! I've been dying to read about them, however lame it gets! I can't have enough of Harry Potter!
Anyways, to convince all the potter heads to read the prequel, i gotta write more than just my feelings.
There are 41 chapters in all which cover every single detail you could have asked for (muniba:which totally destroys the "mystery" of them,makes them your average bunch of friends,especially because its not Jo who's writing)
From the day lily gets her letter to the day when James and lily are murdered (not that i wanted to read that part, its sad)
Anyways, Sirius's character is amazingly written with an addition of Mary McDonald in his love life who later dies (personally, no regrets there,she was turning out to be a b*tch and i want someone perfectly like Sirius(no pun intended) to be with Sirius.)
Remus is portrayed well as far as studiousness goes but he's really too blind towards everything else.The Lupin i know would've spoken up.
The scenes with Lily and Snape are totally (muniba:about the only thing i like about it.she didn't veer off much) innocent and Snape is made to sound like an ordinary best friend while we all know the secret ;) but lily who is at the top of her classes doesn't know :/(muniba: i don't believe it and since she was writing from lily's perspective she should have covered that.she gave that relationship about as much space as Rowling:( ) it kinda broke my heart when she gets all rude and reserved with him, I mean COME ON! He wasn't that bad and he was the one who broke the best news of her life to her!
I cant resist to upload a picture here,its quite funny.
ITS ALL VERY WELL IN THE STORY BUT I STILL CAN'T QUITE PICTURE THEM (SNAPE AND LILY)TOGETHER.ROWLING DID A REALLY GOOD JOB ON HIM AS A SEMI-VILLAIN.HERE'S A LINK TO IT:http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6349253/1/Harry-Potter-The-Prequel |
