(More customer reviews)Err. It's ok.
Typos abound & drive me crazy. Shouldn't true HP fans know how to spell "Ollivander"? Not to mention the countless other grammatical mistakes and "regular" English-language words misspelled.
I've read all their other guides, so was prepared for the casual, web-style grammar and word usage. But, after reading the other guides, I was still expecting some really thoughtful, deep insights into the book, and have so far been disappointed. Most of the time, they start leading the reader in a general direction and then leave us hanging, saying they want us to be able to "figure it out" for ourselves. But most of the time, that seems impossible. I have no idea what they're getting at & I've read & re-read all the HP books at least 10 times (Deathly Hallows three times). The authors touch on all sorts of theories, but just do a really poor job of expounding on them. I wish they would have chosen just a few interesting possible theories and gone all the way with them.
A big disappointment.

Harry Potter's fans are down to waiting for the final volume in JK Rowling's epic mystery, and the fans at Wizarding World Press are no exception!We all want to know how it turns out, and if clues to the final solution have been sitting under all our noses in Book 6.Is Harry one of the people Rowling said would die?And if not—what else can happen to the boy wizard who's already lost his parents, his long-lost godfather, and his mentor? This is the Analysis of Book 6.It is basically the same as the first two guides but covering only Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.The format is similar to the Analysis of Book 5.Many readers use these guides to help them try to guess how the series might end. They can use this one to refresh their memories of what has happened so far, as they reread Book 6.The guides look not only at the clues, but offer insights into both the motivations of the characters and the ways of the magical world, which functions differently than our own.
