The title caught my attention, as I am a big fan of Harry Potter. I had to click on the story to see how the author incorporated characters from Harry Potter into the story. The introduction was nicely composed, it had a similar theme to the movies and books of the school being sorted into four main houses. It was also unique of the author to come up with the four houses and their symbols to reflect the history of Hinduism. I was amazed by the design and the layouts. It actually felt like I was watching a Harry Potter movie. Each story lead to the conquering of evil and the designs completed the affects of the story by grabbing readers attention.

2. Timeless Love Stories
I was a little lost on the name Kamadeva, but as I clicked on the story I understood the topics clearly. I am familiar with most of the gods in Hinduism as I come from Hindu background, but I was a little lost on this god's name. The introduction gave a well brief background to the love stories that were going to be represented. One different image per story was creative and helped me picture the god and goddesses effortlessly. The overall design of the story was good, the images in the middle of the writing was helpful to see what character was being addressed, without going back to see what each of them looked like. Although, it was strange to put the links and captions of all the images at the back corner.

3. The Four Elements: Birth and Death Stories
The titles gives an insight to the stories, as the author correlates the birth and death to the elements. I am somewhat familiar with the the topic, but not as much in depth as the story describes it. The introduction gives a wonderful explanation of major deaths in the Indian epic. It further shows how the character's birth and death are dealt by the four elements: water, fire, earth, and wind. The sidebar navigation tool was cool as for the design I thought it was a little too blend, it could have used a pop of color. Overall, I would use the side toolbar, if I have to create a story in future.
