Editorial Review:
Product Description: THE END OF HARRY POTTER is the perfect companion volume for all Harry Potter fans. Award-winning writer and Potter fan David Langford delves into the six Harry Potter books to explore J.K. Rowling's universe and characters, and shows in detail how cleverly J.K. Rowling has woven her world. This is the book for you if you are one of the gazillions of readers who find themselves wondering about horcruxes and Deatheaters and Dark Lords ...Langford looks at questions like: *What are the remaining horcruxes, the places He Who Shall Not Be Named has stashed his soul so he can never die? *Does Harry himself bear a part of the Dark Lord's soul in his scar? *Is that why Harry understands Parseltongue - and if not, why does he speak the language of the serpentssss? *What will happen when Harry is technically a grown-up, and no longer under the protection of his Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia? *Is Albus Dumbledore really dead? *Whose side is Severus Snape really on? *Will Hogwarts survive the final, apocalyptic battle between Harry and You-Know-Who? Don't know the answers? Then read THE END OF HARRY POTTER?

I enjoyed the book as a refresher and discussion during the run up to the release of book 7. Now that I've read book 7, this will be very dated, unless you want to see what some speculations were for the end of the series.

While I was in high school, I used Cliff Notes and Monarch Notes as a substitute for reading unsavory literature (i.e. Shakespeare's Julius Caesar in particular). I never understood the purpose of these literary products until I enrolled in college literature classes. The coerced reader can understand symbols and see aspects of literature that would be missed. In fact, Cliff and Monarch Notes enable the coerced reader to be transformed into an engaged reader. THE END OF HARRY POTTER? accomplishes ... Read More

I got this book because I am so bored waiting for the last book to come. I had hoped for some new idea, but basically it is the same ole same old. There are several questions listed on the back, which by page 100 the author still hadn't gotten to. It was written before the name of the 7th book was announced, and you can already see that he is wrong about his guesses. Which is basically what this book is ... a lot of suggestions of what will be "cool" to see in book 7. I hope JK didn't read it. LOL.

I usually don't review books but this one irritates me, and I admit I have not read every word in the book. I have read several chapters here and there. I am not sure I will be able to read it all. This is Harry Potter and not Lord of the Rings. I know many people love Lord of the Rings but I didn't and I don't like having to read over and over again about how this part of Harry Potter was like Lord of the Rings in this or that part. David Landford makes it sound like she stole parts of other books, not ... Read More

There was nothing in this that you couldn't find in a well made Harry Potter fansite. Moreover, there were some nitpicky details wrong. (It's not a huge deal, but Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot & Prongs never referred to themselves as "the Marauders," which this book does. The name of the map is singular. It is a map for a marauder, for example. Plus, there was some incorrect information about Tolkien/Lord of the Rings canon and some oversimplifications of His Dark Materials.)
So why am I complaining, ... Read More
