MuggleNet Fan Fiction Thursday: ‘Halfway to Infinity’

Our FanFiction feature this week is the amazing ‘Halfway to Infinity‘ by Eponine. This story won the Quick Silver Quill award for best Alternate Universe, meaning it takes the Potter books as a basis and makes a significant change to the established events.

In this timeline Harry Potter died and fifty years later the world is dark under the power of Lord Voldemort. Eponine’s epic novel-length tale traces an alternative struggle to Harry’s, wondering if anyone could possibly have the power to defeat the Dark Lord other than our famous hero?

Please note: This story is rated 3rd – 5th year and is inappropriate for young readers. Read more about MNFF’s rating system here.

‘Rain pitter-patted through the iron bars and onto the chilly glass window pane, alerting the occupants in the small flat of the coming storm. Storms in the middle of August, such as this one, were not uncommon. People had trouble explaining the intense and spontaneous torrents. Unable to connect them with the ocean, sun or planets, they just decided that the only possible explanation of the strange weather they had been experiencing for the past fifty years was magic.’

And, as always, you can read the featured story in full, as well as over 9,000 others, at MuggleNet Fan Fiction.
