    I've posted this story up because it's a HP/SG-A story that meets one of my challenges from long ago, although I'm sure the author has never seen it before. There's only one chapter so far, but it's at 10k words, so I though it was big enough to put up.

    Basically, Harry and Ron get sucked through a secret Stargate underneath Hogwarts and into Atlantis. A lot of talking happens, a Wraith gets burnt alive, Sgt Bates gets turned into a Ferret and thrown across the wall.

    Truth be told, it aint that good. For Ron haters, this is not for you. At all. Ron seems to be a big part of all of the other author's stories. And Harry has the subtlely of a thermo-nuclear warhead. But I enjoyed it, so I figure that some of you might as well.

    If you like HP-SG crossovers, check out the author's profile page. He's written at least four of them including this one, though I only browsed through two of them.

    Not too bad. Nice, long length. I've never been much for SG: Atlantis, but this seems alright to me. 3.5/5

    Indeed.

    I like SG-1 more than Atlantis. Not sure why, but it was like the acting took a nose dive or something. Maybe it was just me, though.

    Marietsy is one of the few authors that can make me like Ron, but tends to go overboard after awhile. I really have to be in the mood to deal with it if I'm to read it. I'll come back later and edit my post when I'm done.

    Edit: Didnt like it as much as I thought I would. 2/5.

    I liked it so far. I also like Atlantis...after SG-1 got a little repeditive for me, Sheppard and co. somewhat breathed new life into it for me.

    I like it. Seems like it could be interesting but I don't see any significant plot unravelling, though that's probably because of the single chapter. At the minute its just Harry & Ron in Atlantis, pissing off the Wraith. Hope it has a good twist in there.

    I like it but Harry seems to be telling them a bit to much for no signicant reason.

    Well, this story is exactly one chapter before being abandoned.

    However, I decided to read this story to see how good it was.

    Willing to risk their lives without knowing what's on the other side, good job guys. :rolleyes:

    Humor seems forced here on "Harry always doing stupid stuff."

    I thought it was written well enough that I could read the fic without wanting to press the red x button.

    The rest I found, well boring. I found myself beginning to skim not enjoying the story as I went along. I got to about 3/4 done, stopped skimming to read the rest to give it another chance, but just found it to be boring.

    2/5.
