An example of why J Bern is a professional writer.

I'm going to start off with the good

  • Amazing dueling in this story, J Bern really knows how to write fight scenes.
  • Surprisingly good look at a medical emergency with inventive uses for things like the bubblehead charm and switching spell.
  • A good and unmanuplative Dumbledore.
  • The Triwizard tournament having more than three tasks.
  • The Triwizard tournament scenes in general, they are all amazingly written.
  • The Harry/Fleur pairing
And then we have the not so good.
  • Bad Krum? Bad Weasley twins?
  • The story is very mediocre until the Triwizard tournament takes off, be prepared to trudge through the first few chapters.
  • The sorting hat could be in this section if you don't like a LOT of cussing.
  • The ending cut off, there is supposed to be a sequel but J Bern has been more interested in original works of his at the moment and i'm not sure we will see one.
Overall reaction
  • Worth the price of reading just for the triwizard tournament scenes, they are that good.
