The Boy Who Fell by Darth Marrs

Great story with an unusual pairing. This is a Harry Potter/Star Wars crossover without Harry who died at the age of 4. In this story the world is a little darker and 16 year old Luna Lovegood lying under the stars wishes for Knight in Shining Armor to save and heal her. Unknowingly her magic is different from others along with the fact that she is force sensitive. Ben Skywalker on a routine flight finds his ship being forcefully dragged to uncharted space and crash lands in a pond next to Luna. Ben is able to contact his father through the force and his family is coming for him. Meanwhile he does what a Jedi does best and protects the innocent while trying to keep Luna out his bed. She confuses, comforts, and heals him as he does with her. Then Voldemort makes the mistake of kidnapping her and almost fatally injuring him. Sadly for Voldemort, Luke Skywalker, Han & Leigh Solo and assorted family members have arrived and Voldemort is about to meet someone who loves taking out Dark Lords. Great story with lots of humor as well as angst. There is mention of rape and torture but nothing too graphic. It is good to read a story where the wizarding world is not putting its future on a child, instead they actively fight back. The battle at Hogwarts is just amazing and Han Solo is so in character. I almost choked laughing at the women drivers comment you will see what I mean.
