My favorite alignment chart. Looking at books and the divisions, the one thing I'm noticing is "Thorn's Revolt" seems to be more of a Law/Chaos divide than a good/evil thing.
The Confederation is on the evil side of the lawful side but there are good people like Mary Shirtcliffe on their side, who believe in the system and want to make it work.
Abraham Thorne tried to work in the system but has now turned against it. I think he started out Lawful good, then became Chaotic good at anger at the system, tried to fix it, and is now Chaotic Neutral.
The Ozarkers, and to a lesser extent the Chinese wizardling culture, follow their own 'laws'. Anna and the Pritchards are loyal to those 'laws'.
I can see both Constance and Anna heading toward neutral good. Anna because of the pull of her best friend, Constance because she and David are eventually be a couple and that will be a break from Ozarker custom.
Ultimately, Alexandra Quick as a series about lawful evil vs chaotic good in alignment terms, with Abraham being a warning about the fall into Chaotic Evil i.e. don't become a monster while opposing the monsterous.

Least that's how I see it.
