Inverarity is not a Scottish village

Splendidly done. A great ending to a story that's getting better by the chapter. I keep hoping JKR is reading this too because, although it does depend on her world, Harry's world, it is quite independent of her plot and even her characters . . .sort of. I'll bet she'd like it, maybe even admire it. Of course I knew we'd see more of Darla. You still have to give us a plausible explanation for why a 12 year old girl would attempt to murder a classmate in front of a room full of teachers, and then try again, and again. What's up with that? Can you imagine what McGonigal would have done, or Snape, if someone threw the AK in a dueling class. They'd have been permanently petrified and placed on a pedestal just outside the door to Snape's office - or something. I am looking forward to reading more, and although I don't want to wait until December to start reading, I am going to take a deep breath and ask you to consider getting all of the chapters edited by your excellent betas before you start posting. But only because I found that having to read your story in dribs and drabs over several months broke it up too much and made it hard to remember details that turned out to be important. For example, in chapter 37, I had a hard time remembering who the elf was when he showed up again. And I have no memory at all of the generous ones giving AQ any talking heads. Oh well. I' so glad that you are writing seven whole books and that you have the story arc worked out already. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!! Please. Squibghost P.S. Oh yea, I'd have submitted this as a review through fanficition.net but I can never get my password right, so I can't log in to review.
