Like several other posters, I wasn't sure whether I could make it through based on the warnings. You created such a different world-Grindelwald almost a benevolent Dark Lord (as if) and the very highly developed potions story line. Draco was abominable on so many levels, Lucius obviously had his heart in the right place when it mattered. Severus had that unique way of maintaining distance and yet being in the thick of things. I was really hoping for a happy ending and I'm glad I chose to read this.
