Pride of Time: Review


Title: Pride of Time

Author: Anubis Ankh


Pairing: Severus Snape/ Hermione Granger

Rating: M/R (all in good taste)

Synopsis: Hermione quite literally crashes her way back through time by roughly twenty years. There is no going back; the only way is to go forward. And when one unwittingly interferes with time, what one expects may not be what time finds...

Review: Few authors have been able to take the Mauraders Era/Go Back in Time plot and make it into a masterpiece. The story is long, thorough, and detailed. It takes you on an adventure as Hermione lands in the 70's from her fifth year. As if traveling back in time wasn't enough, throw in a rocky friendship with Severus and a difficult, but loveable friendship with the Mauraders, Hermione is determined not to upset the delicate balance of time. That doesn't mean she's going to take the past laying down either! She wouldn't be Hermione Granger if she did. 
I love this story, because of it's detailed look at Severus and Hermione's relationship and how it grows. I also love the little plot twists that make this story so unique. 
There is even a side story to enjoy after you finish this one called Divide of Time which to be honest, I kind of like better than the original story, but that is for another review.
