    Title: Alexandria Auction
    Author: Tangerine-Alert
    Rating: T
    Genre: Drama/Sci-Fi/Crossover
    DLP Category: Alternates
    Pairing: none yet
    Status: Work in Progress
    Summary: Harry Potter, UNIT, NCIS xover. Harry has completed training with UNIT and been ordered 6 months off duty, he goes on a road trip in America…but is ordered back on duty to deal with an auction…and NCIS


    Welcome, this is a sequel to UNIT: Night Wolf – Beginnings, but you don’t…necessarily need to have read it (or it’s precursor Sorcery, UNITed Independence, Space), reading Night Wolf Beginnings will give you more insight into who the characters are and how they got here.

    It is (more or less) possible to understand this without having read Beginnings.

    For those of you who enjoyed Sorcery, UNITed, Independence, Space, this is a new sequel of sorts for it. With only two chapters, the plot cannot be interpreted yet, but the grammar and writing are superb. I know it's early on in the story, but the author usually has fairly quick updates.

    That's a bit whack for me I'm afraid. Guess I'd have to read the earlier ones to understand wtf that is all about.

    That and all the titles turned me off it.

    Not my cup of tea.

    It's been a while since I've read the first fic. But this one is promising.

    The first fic was pedantic and poorly edited but alright overall. I'm pretty certain it was trash-binned a few times. The whole "labels are for potions not people" was so played by the end of the first chapter it appeared in, not to mention the gross spelling and grammar errors. If he'd even bothered to run it through M$ Word it'd clean up most of that nonsense.

    Chapter two's link is borked on FFN, so I couldn't read past chapter 1. It's okay for what I've seen, kinda like CSI, except magical. And much weirder. 3/5 in my opinion.

    The comments sort of contradict the posts. Any other votes/opinions?
