Book Review: James Potter and The Bolt of Ages by L Wilt



James Potter and The Bolt of Ages by L. Wilt




 




The James Potter Project is a fan fiction about the Marauders' first year at Hogwarts, based upon the Harry Potter series by J. K. Rowling. James Potter is Harry Potter’s father (for the uninitiated)


 


It was interesting to read this novel about (Sr.) James Potter; Harry Potter's Father ..... after reading the series on Jr. James Potter (Harry's Son). 

The novel has its own unique style and i liked it. Loved the part where some of the sidelined characters of the Harry Potter series get significant role to play in the story. 

it is delightful to see the relationship of James, Sirius, Remus and Peter grow ... and their interaction with Lily and Severus. of course, we also have Lucius Malfoy also in the mix. 

Sadly, Hagrid does not play a significant role in this story. 

The author builds some suspense in the story. Those who know the characters from Harry Potter begin to understand the relationships of these characters while those who might not have (rare chance) will find it a suspenseful journey. 

the author brings in some light-hearted humour and its good. And so are the one lines which hint at future events. 

I hope the author continues to write this story ... there is a lot of potential in the story of Sr. James and I see a lot of potential in the author too. All the Best ...

Mumbai Local - First Class v/s Second Class

    It is an old joke that the difference in the first class and second class of the Mumbai local trains is that people in first class use deodorants and hence you are exempted from the smelly underarms while travelling. The mute point being; both class of travel experience a passenger overload during the peak hours and you are almost equally squeezed and pushed around in both. Of course, the seats in First Class are cushioned (unlike the hard seats of second class) but then that would make a difference only if you get to sit (which would be a likely probability only if you get into the train from the station it originates). My father holds a first class pass from Churchgate to Andheri (since past 7 years, ever since we moved to Andheri). He often travels by Second class in the evening. Strange, isn't it? This is why he does it … In the First class, there is an unwritten rule that on the seat, only the designated number of people (which is 3) will sit. No sq...

Tongue Twister - V for Vendetta

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran, cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate. This visage, no mere veneer of vanity, is it vestige of the vox populi, now vacant, vanished. However, this valorous visitation of a by-gone vexation, stands vivified, and has vowed to vanquish these venal and virulent vermin vanguarding vice and vouchsafing the violently vicious and voracious violation of volition. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive, not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous. Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage veers most verbose so let me simply add that it's my very good honor to meet you and you may call me V." - V for Vendetta
