“James Potter and the Hall of Elders’ Crossing” by G. Norman Lippert

I finished reading this today and thought I’d share.  This is suppose to be the unofficial continuation of the Harry Potter series (and a fan fic), however, it revolves around Harry and Ginny’s old child James Sirius Potter.  Even though it revolves around James during his first year at school, it does kind of feel familiar…..maybe because the story takes place at Hogwarts.  It may also feel familiar because it reminds me of when the golden trio were involved in their usual shenanigans while they still in school.  There is an even mix of familiar faces that we know and love from the Harry Potter series and new faces that we’ve never met before.  I did enjoy reading this.  There were enough action/drama going on to keep me coming back, plus, the author threw is a couple of curve balls that I didn’t see coming.

Synopsis:  What’s it like to be the son of the most famous wizard of all time?

James Potter thinks he knows, but as he begins his own adventure at Hogwarts, he discovers just how much of a challenge it really is to live up to the legend of the great Harry Potter. As if it wasn’t enough dealing with the delegates from the American wizarding school and figuring out the mysteriously polite Slytherins, James and his new friends, Ralph and Zane, begin to uncover a secret plot that could pit the Muggle and the Magical worlds against each other in all-out war.

Now, with the help of Ted Lupin and his band of merry mischief makers (The Gremlins), James must race to stop a war that could change the world forever. His only hope is to learn the difference between being a hero and being the son of a hero.
