Maybe get the advice and opinion of footnote appreciater Neil Gaiman.
Though I have often send unfinished or unpublished stories to other writers for their general opinions, I'd likely never, at this stage of my career, ask another writer to help me make a decision of this magnitude. If the book should tank, I want to be able to blame no one but myself (or the publisher for not promoting it, or readers who are idiots, or...). Likewise, I refuse to offer this sort of advice to other authors.
