Interesting start, even to someone who has never seen Sherlock (remiss I know) or even read any SH stories. You seem to have provided enough detail that my lack of background knowledge won't matter too much, and I look forward to finding out more. Albus Severus is very cute - hope we get to see the rest of the Potter family at some point.
Author's Response: Thanks for reading, Rosina! The first chapter is really an introduction to "my" story, and it can be enjoyed independent of the "Sherlock" tv series. However, I am writing this story with the assumption that my audience will already have seen the first 2 seasons of Sherlock, and I'm planning to post a spoilers alert at the beginning of Chapter 2 which will apply to the rest of my story as well. I began writing WR in July, hoping to have more done before October, but real life crashed down, so I'm running behind schedule. :-P I think PBS is getting Season 3 in Feb, so I'd like to get more written/posted before then, but I'm trying to be cautious not to contradict my earlier material, so I'm holding off on posting the next 30,000 words! (Yes, I have that much more typed, but it's still just the "beginning"!) I hope you can play catch-up with Sherlock-- the series is terrific fun! Many thanks for the review! :-)
Oh wow that was so good! I've only just started getting into Sherlock and I enjoyed this chapter a lot! Awesome work shadow I look forward to reading more!
Author's Response: Thank you so much, Con! I really didn't know how Sherlock fans might respond-- would they think I'm totally off my rocker to attempt this?!-- but your positive feedback is encouraging! Glad you liked the first chapter, and thanks for reviewing! :-)
Very nice Shadow! My favorite bit is the little family at the cafe! I wonder how Snape will play into this!
Perfect job!
Author's Response: Thanks, autumn! I'm planning bits of family life interspersed with the action & mysteries throughout this story to lighten it from time to time. As for Snape, I can tell you that this is AU, so he might not be dead! (JKR killed him off, so I feel compelled to keep bringing him back, one way or another, in my stories...) Not all characters show up in all chapters, and the inclusion of 2 major new chars (Sherlock & John) will spread everyone out a bit, but it'll all work out in the end. Thanks for your patience! And for your review!!! ;-)
