Ok, sorry for the late news post but I'm in Costa Rica, living in the boonies, and sitting on an anthill while trying to get my netlife updated. It's not as glamorous as it sounds. That said, I've posted Year One of Shadow Council Preludes here. This is a BTVS/HP crossover, with a touch of the Addams Family thrown in. Since I'm sticking close to HP Canon until Year 4/5 the first four books will focus on Xander and not Harry. That's not to say that he's the hero, he's a student. Harry will become very much central to the series post Year 5 for sure. In a HUGE departure from the normal for me, this is a BETAED version. So thank Mercer for his work, blame me for whatever errors are left. I hope you enjoy, and Ciao from Costa Rica.
