    Beren continues to be one of a favorite authors. In fact, he has written what I conisder to be a Harry/Draco Classic, Gold Tinted Spectacles, which you will find on this page. Beren has penned more than 60 stories and I am still reading what he has to offer. Here are the ones I like so far. I'm sure Beren will quickly become one of your favorites.
    Recommendations are presented in alphabetical order.

"Angels and Devils" (re-edit Jul 2019)

Link verified to ArchiveOfOurOwn.org/users/beren on 4 June 2023
Hogwarts 7th Year/Creature Fic/Bonding/Veela!Draco
Rated Fiction MA 18+
10 Chapters (52,054 words)
Completed 12 January 2005
Added 6 March 2021 (archived-pdf)
    Harry defeated Voldemort and his act of heroism is famous throughout the wizarding world. He's trying to finish his final year at Hogwarts in peace, but, thanks to the method he chose to destroy The Dark Lord, something peculiar is happening to him, something he never would have expected. It's all rather embarrassing and making his life very complicated.
    Author Note - This fic has Veela!Draco and lots of other things that appear to have become fandom clichés, which was part of the point in writing it :). I've had great fun with this fic, trying to explore ideas in a slightly different way than I have seen before. It may have Veela!Draco, but it is all from Harry POV in case you were wondering.

"Gold Tinted Spectacles" (2015/16 edit)
by Beren (aka Didi)
Gold Tinted Spectacles
Link verified to ArchiveOfOurOwn/users/beren on 11 June 2023
ClassicClassic/Hogwarts/Fantasy/Drama
Rated Fiction M
40 Chapters (182,581 words)
Completed 4 April 2006
Added 14 October 2008 (archived-pdf)
    Harry is about to enter his seventh year, and things are not quite what he expected. He is no longer the angry boy who watched his world fall apart at the end of his fifth year, but neither has he completely found his place yet. He is looking for something, and to his confusion it seems to involve Draco Malfoy. Set for revelations that will shake his whole world view, Harry must deal with unstable magic, far too many secrets, love, kidnapping, his dead godfather, and of course Voldemort and his lackeys. It's going to be a busy year.
     Absolutely great story, but I'll warn you, Beren loves a good cliffhanger, so be prepared to have to force yourself to take a break from reading. This is an all time classic.


Gold Tinted Specitcals SEQUEL

"Defence, Pretence, Offence"

Defence, Pretence, Offence
Link verified to ArchiveOfOurOwn/users/beren on 11 June 2023
Hogwarts/Written Pre-HBP/Drama/Angst/AU
Rated Fiction MA 18+
81 Chapters (197,497 words)
Completed 3 August 2018
Added 1 December 2018 (archived-pdf)
    The threat of open war in on the horizon. The Order and the Ministry are of one accord and both know that where Harry Potter is, Voldemort will eventually be. Preparations are being made and this time the side of the light will not be caught unawares. Summer classes, sabotage, revelations about Draco's father, teaching and the final showdown with Voldemort all await Harry and Draco in this exciting sequel to Gold Tinted Spectacles.
    This story is canon compliant until the end of Order of the Phoenix and then goes AU. None of the HBP or Deathly Hallows plot will be used, or the Horcruxes for that matter since this story was planned before we knew the details about those things, and hence has it's own fanon. This includes birthdays and other information that have since been revealed on Pottermore (which shut down and is now WizardingWorld.com) and in further productions.

    Harry didn't do what everyone expected of him and he became a professional Quidditch player, however, he still has a huge hero streak. When he does something reckless to save Draco Malfoy from a potentially fatal fall in a match it changes more than just Draco's attitude towards him.
