Well, guess I can't criticize you for any delays in posting Chapter, considering that this review is almost a month late. It was only on my fourth (or was it fifth?) reread of this chapter that I realized that Selena had her baby. Duh! And it wasn’t even just a passing reference; they had a picture and everything! So, I know there is supposed to be a hidden meaning in the name "Pepper Pot," but damn if I can figure it out (Google Search didn’t help much, since I don’t think it has anything to do with a recipe). The only think I can think of is Harry Potter, which is very obvious, perhaps too much so. Glad to see Brian and Corona doing good things in the war, but sorry they were injured. Corona is such a gem, especially compared to the rest of her family. Oh, and I thought this chapter had false advertising about learning who hurt Hermoine, but I guess it’s staring us right in the face. She must have blocked it out of her conscious mind, but her subconscious is protesting. On to the next!

Fantastic chapter. I love how you've linked Percy in with Baroness Orczy's book. Cleverly done. I like the Red Shepherds. I suspect more is going on with Hermione than is clear now. More please. This story is as wonderful as ever.

So, I started reading this fanfic as a result of my boyfriend telling me that it is one of the best ones he has read. I had my doubts about how good this brand of fanfiction would be, primarily due to the fact that I read more bad fanfic than halfway decent or excellent fanfic.

I must say that through the course of the story you have created, Ms. Walsh, I found myself becoming thoroughly attached to the characters and the weave that holds the Pack and Pride together. At several points you had me in tears, which is actually a good thing, because of how poignant the story became, particularly with Aletha/Mare and Sirius. I have to say I actually stopped reading this for awhile because I was so afraid of what was going to happen to the Pack and to the Pride. I picked the story back up because I had to know what would happen and how you kept making everything ok in the end.

I particularly love the fact that your Voldemort is actually evil and he is not the stupid kind of evil, just the intelligent, sadistic kind of evil. Oh and the genocidal kind of evil. You can never forget genocide.

So far, this fanfiction far outlived any expectations I had. Your humor, voice, and obvious love of these characters is well illustrated. Thank you so much for writing as much as you have. Now PLEASE get the next chapters done soon so I don't go absolutely BONKERS!!

I'll leave my review here after reading the previous 9 chapters straight through. This story is as captivating as the first three. This is the best HP alternate universe I've read. As for titles for the next one, I would vote for "Conquering Danger." Also, I would definitely buy your original fiction so long as it's available on Apple's iBooks or some equally accessible e-book format. :D Thanks for a wonderful universe. Keep up the excellent work.

Thank you Anne, I've been away on training without internet for the last couple weeks having a heck of a horrible time, and when I finally got the chance again to jump on the net for a couple hours, seeing a new chapter allowed me to forget about the troubles I've been having and just enjoy a good read. Hopefully when your next chapter comes out I'll be safe at home again and won't need it as a distraction but just a nice pleasurable read.

P.S. Great chapter =)

Hello, I am not on Facebook, so I hope you will see this...my husband is the Facebook fanatic, maybe I can get him to visit and like your page for me... anyway, until then, I was glad to have the next chapter to read and I hope you are doing better. I was hoping that when Mare visited with Rowena Ravenclaw, she and the Founders could do something to restore Aletha back to herself, but that would have been too easy, huh? Anyway, nice little cliffie you left us with as the giants descend on Grimmauld Place... yikes! Looking forward as always to the next chapter to see what happens. :-}

I'm excited about Percy's plans... and the thought of giants in London is freaky. How are you gonna fix this? Glad you're feeling better and back up and running!

Awesome. :) Yay for build-up and exposition!
Also, I like the secondary powers bit. And I can see how some of them fit into certain other hints and riddles. :D

Now, for the last bit, which quote would apply more...
'Giants! In London! Though you ought to know...'?
OR
'Reform the lines! Forth Eorlingas!'?

Giants in London, huh? How much damage have they done already?

Why do I have the suspicion that Parseltongue is the minor Slytherin gift?

Thanks for the new chapter, even if it does end on something of a cliffie... :)

Hey, I once got a spiral fracture of the upper arm playing ping-pong. The most amazing things can be dangerous on occasion.
