The Mugglenet crew takes on almost every unanswered question in the Harry Potter series in this preview of what *might* happen in Book 7. You may not agree with all their conclusions but, with quotes from the books and from interviews with the author, they always make a compelling case. This book also serves as a nice overview of the previous 6 books and brings together in one place the clues and themes that JK Rowling carries from one book to another.

HP fans love to speculate and will find show more much to agree with and argue about in this book!

Surprisingly well written, by the way.

Also a good quick Harry Potter fix for the anticipation leading up to the release of the final book. Theorizing about the story was my favorite part about the Harry Potter experience. This book captures all of the questions, concerns, and wonderment that we all wanted to know over the years.
Another reasonably enjoyable speculation on the end of the Harry Potter series. This one is more pragmatic and tends to be driven by interviews with J. K. Rowling more than story arc or plot components. While I disagree with some of their assertions (that is, I disagree that some things they assert as fact have been demonstrated to be facts), I largely agree with their logic and the conclusions they derive. This is a very quick read, so you have time to take care of it before midnight this show more Saturday when the last Harry Potter novel is published. They make a good case related to the locket and how it was retrieved; I won't say more than that. show less
I loved the book, even though many of the things mentioned had already been discussed to death by the MuggleCasters, and I did disagree with a lot of what was said (Snape being good, implications of something between Lily & Snape, etc), but overall, it was a good read. It was very well written, especially considering that it was written by teenagers for the most part. The bits of humor that were sprinkled throughout the book were amusing. Well done, MuggleNetters, and just a few more months show more of waiting till we see how many of those predictions come true! show less
