Title: Life Cycle Series (http://archiveofourown.org/series/21657) Fandom: Harry Potter Pairing: Harry/Draco (with other pairings through out) Categories: AU, Creature fic Length: Super Epic (1,376,466 words for all 3 stories at present) Warnings: Creature fic, MPreg, some character bashing. Author on AO3:Windseeker2305 (http://archiveofourown.org/users/windseeker2305/pseuds/windseeker2305) Summary: Epic story involving creature inheiritance, well developed, three-deminsional OC's, and a new alliance that will shape more than just the wizarding world.
Review: The heart of this series is Harry and Draco, but it's about so much more than that. It's a creature fic with a bit of the dominant/submissive vibe (as in mated pairs are either one or the other). The creature in a kind of dark elf that hasn't been seen in the wizarding would in centuries, and so Harry and Draco have much to learn about who they are becoming.
There is some bashing in the form of Dumbledore and Ron, but in Dumbledore's case he isn't truly evil. He has his reasons and his beliefs and even though you want him to lose you don't really hate him for it.
Voldemort is another interesting twist here. His changed and developed in such a way that you want to know more and read more about him, yet it's done in a way that doesn't water him down or make him a good guy or a *white hat*.
And the final thing a love about this series are the original characters. Normally when I read fanfiction (as opposed to original novels), OC's turn me right off, because for the most part they tend to be one dimensional, and flat, and frequently mary-sue, and the like. Not so here. All of the OC's in this series are well developed, three-dimensional characters. I am just as excited to read about a chapter involving Ozemir and Brumek (two of the OC's) as I am to read about Harry and Draco.
