Reviews for Clarke's Law
Guest chapter 1 . 3/23
I kind of like the corollary too, especially when dealing with Alteran!Harry stories; Any sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from (Ancient) technology.

Seriously, the Alteran Drone weapons ought to be magical!

A Repository containing the 50 million year history and accumulated knowledge of the Ancients, that's one seriouly overpowered Pensieve bowl!

The Ascended are effectively overpowered ghosts who can stll ACT in the real world or can be descended back to life again (either deliberately on their own or forcibly by the Other Ascended) - and essentially serving as their own horcruxes in that case! ;-)

I suspect it isn't that easy - Voldemort was a student during WW2, if anyone could come up with a magical defence against bullets it would be him.
James Birdsong chapter 1 . 2/18
Great
Kknd2 chapter 1 . 1/11
Definitely love the bit about 'if I conjure a sword and kill you with it, is that steel or magic killing you?' especially since the actual answer is 'Neither, you killed me.' It's remarkable how badly that setting is constructed (and it's peoples depicted) that such a law existing and such an attempt happening sounds so plausible and in flavor of the original work to me.

Great.

*snicker* That was fun, though I believe a sten gun is 1940's technology but the "advanced" is still relative, given their willful ignorance.

Oh, course, the inverse is true, too, and "Any sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from magic" could help their integration into the wider world, but that's a story for another time. Actually, a story applying that to American Indian magic appeared in "Analog" some years ago and was a good read.
Right What Is Wrong chapter 1 . 11/10/2019
Heh. Nice job. I liked the double-twist.
lncbill chapter 1 . 10/22/2019
Great and funny story.

On a note the sten gun goes back to late 30's early 40's it was the British Empires submachine gun during W.W. 2
BlindJedi chapter 1 . 10/9/2019

An excellent one shot. I really like it.
I accidently filmed rather than favourited, I'm not Eccleshall more, just a slip of the finger. That said, I would not be adverse to a one or two shot sequel about repealing the law and getting revenge.
I'm gonna go and read more of your stories now.
Thanks for writing,
Queen Farli
