What a sweet little fic - it combines two of my favourite worlds - Harry Potter and Narnia. I do hope you will continue with this fic as it is most certainly original with the Dangerverse mixed in as well.

I liked how _most_ of the children feel unworthy to be kings and queens.
One thing about Meghan in this story - she hasn't seemed Slytherin, and her hugging the queen seems more insecure? than what I would expect of a Slytherin. But maybe that's my view of Slytherins.
I liked how Draco's wish came back to bother him, "Your Highness." :-) Wonder if that's foreshadowing other wishes he has.
Good story. Thanks for updating.

Draco was never very good at listening to voices on EITHER side of the fence, was he? :) So few other fanfic writers seem to GET that :P
I find myself even fonder of Meghan in this than I am in the original Dangerverse. She's had a much harder life, and is quite believably mercurial... very skillfully done.

Draco is sliding slowly into a hole. He does not realise how deep that hole goes. I am not certain he can climb out. What of the White wizard? I don't think he is forgiving as the royalty of Narnia. Will there be retrobution to Draco for not heading the wizard's instructions?

I've been trying to wait to see more of this before reviewing, but your heartfelt request means I can't help but review. :P
When I got the first email notification that you'd started a new story, I read its synopsis (or whatever the correct term was), saw it was a crossover, and immediately wrote it off. Pretty much every crossover I've read has been just... bad. Really bad actually.
So, while I really enjoy your other works, I didn't bother reading. Then when the first real chapter (the one that's not the prologue I mean) was posted, I decided to just give it a chance. After all, your other writing tells me that you have some real skill, and I'd hate to miss out on a good story because I'm just prejudiced against crossovers.
So I started reading. And reading. And reading. When I was young I was a fan of the Narnia series, but kind of ... well, grew out of it you might say. I moved onto harder, stranger fantasy and science fiction. This story rekindled my interest in the original's, so I reread the magician's nephew the other night.
Now, as to the real review for your story. I'll be interested to see how you mesh the more natural magic of the Narnia universe with the more artifical and controlled magic of the Harry Potter universe. Additionally, I'll be interested in seeing if Draco is somehow redeemed. I could see him going the way of Edmund and being redeemed, but then I can also see him being the ass he is throught Harry Potter and throwing his lot in with the White Wizard, Alsan's influence be damned. Perhaps yank another human out of Hogwarts to fill the gap? I know it seems quite unlikely, but I still wait and wonder patiently.

Well, it was definitely appreciated. This is going so well!
