This is an excelent story. I only read completed stories and rarly follow up with sequels if they are not complete when I read the beginning story. But with this story Alexandra Quick stuck in my head. I refused to read this until all the chapters were posted but I WAS waiting for it!
I did have a suggestion though. After a year had passed and many many other stories have been read I had trouble remembering the first story all that well. I remembered it well enough I didnt want to re-read it before starting this one, but not well enough to transition into this one without questions. Perhaps it would be possible to include maybe a 1 page synopsys on each of the previous installments when posting a sequel? Nothing in depth just a memory refresher that could easily be skipped by those who had read the previous stories recently. Just make sure you dont fall into JK's trend of re-explainging the same thing in the begining of the story of each book. Yes I know Harry is a wizard, did you think I hadnt read the first three books? Thankfully she seemed to cut that out in later books.
Your writing and story telling is excelent! I was thinking just the other day you could probably alter the referances to the HP world enough without altering the storyline that you could publish this whole series! I bet it would sell to!
