Author Reviews
"Barb [...] she was one of the bigger names in the fandom just a few years ago. Guess many of her readers have grown up and moved on — she was most active in that productive period before Order of the Phoenix's publication. Anyway, her entire Psychic Serpent trilogy is some of the best written stuff I've had the pleasure to read. Yes, the romance can get dramatic to the point of soap opera melodrama, and yes — since this was written at the half way point of the series, much has been revealed to be completely different from the world she created. Nevertheless, I still consider her work some of the best I've read, and would highly encourage you to check it out, starting with Harry Potter and the Psychic Serpent."[1]Author rec by Bufu
"Her work was the first good fanfiction I'll admit to reading. The second in the trilogy, Harry Potter and the Time of Good Intentions, is one of the best looks at an AU I've ever seen and how it comes about is shocking. Granted I think it went downhill towards the end of the trilogy but up to the middle of the third story it was all very well done work."[1]Unclouded TJ
