Me!
It depicts a world of witches and wizards, the protagonist being the eponymous young wizard Harry Potter. Since the release of the first novel, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (retitled Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone in the United States) in 1997, the books have gained immense popularity and commercial success worldwide, spawning films, video games, and a wealth of other items. The books have sold more than 300 million copies[1] and been translated into 47 languages, more than any other book except the Bible and Book of Mormon. [2]
Most of the narrative takes place in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, focusing on Harry Potter's journey toward manhood over the course of his education, relationships, and adventures. At the same time, the books explore the themes of friendship, ambition, choice, prejudice, courage, love, and the perplexities of death, set against the expansive backdrop of a magical world with its own complex history, diverse inhabitants, unique culture, and parallel society.
As of 2006, six of the seven planned books have been published, while the publishing date of the seventh remains uncertain. The latest, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, was issued in its English language version on 16 July 2005. The first four books have been made into very successful films, and the fifth began filming in February 2006. English language versions of the books are published by Bloomsbury, Scholastic Press, and Raincoast Books.

It's never a waste of time critically appraising literature that claims to be artistic fiction. You think it's a waste of time because, obviously, you haven't bothered to think about the books as creative fiction. In fiction, there is no need to kill off good people. It is a sign of artistic confusion in a writer to get us to like a character and then to kill them off. It's fiction, for Pete's sake! In fiction good people can live forever. In the last book, Harry abandons the person who sincerely loves him. His reasons are unacceptable. The writer is confused about love. The writer makes Harry a jerk in the matter of love. You like/admire Harry for this? It seems that your "bizniz" is not insightful reading. You should be the one to go find your real "bizniz" and mind it.
