The premise for this story was refreshingly different from a lot of things I'd read before. The idea of Harry not being able to connect well with others if left alone I've come across, but not a Harry secluded in a Manor in another country, and the atmosphere, with death before the war, and Teddy seeing Harry as another orphan boy within a figure that is large in life and legend, was fasinating. What I enjoyed most though, mystery author, was the style of writing you used for this, with your prose being almost poetical, littered with beautiful imagery, and yet still in keeping with the story being told from a teenage boy's point of view, so that Teddy's moments of frankness fitted in.
I really enjoyed this, and especially the wonderful way you put your words together. :o)
