PoU has a sequel, called "the story that never ends" or something like that,
and a prequel called "A Sirius Affair". There are plenty of other good fics.
I'm enjoying Ebony's fic "Trouble in Paradise", about Ron and Hermione's
marriage going wrong, and written from the point of view of Angelina who is
Fred Weasley's wife :-)
I actually wouldn't put "The Letter" into the 'must read' category yet, at
least not after only one part. No offense meant to Jim, it's a great start,
and I'd love to read more.
I did the same as you, Rachel. I was a latecomer to HP, after the rest of my
family had all read them. I read all four books in the space of a week, in
November 2000.
