Everyone knows that JK Rowling gave Emerson Spartz of MuggleNet a personal interview in her own home a while back. Reading this book makes me wonder if she didn't leak a few major secrets about HP 7 to him in the process. This book's theories are so logical and well-thought out that they seem like they'll HAVE to happen. The authors take you through all the major plot points and loose ends that remain to be wrapped up in Book 7: Snape, Malfoy, Harry's Scar, Life Debts, the Horcruxes, the big battle, RAB, all the major relationships, and more. All their predictions are based on solid logic set up in previous books. There are no wild, crazy leaps in logic here (though some of their predictions are pretty bold and shocking--especially what they say about one of the Horcruxes!). In the end, of course, these are just theories and not the real thing. But these theories are a fantastic way to tide you over until the final HP book comes out. And they won't spoil the final book either, since only JK knows what will really happen. In fact, after reading this book, I'm more excited than ever for the final Harry Potter installment. Way to go, MuggleNet. You guys have made a great book.
Entertaining for the Avid Harry Potter Fan, with Some Repeat Information... December 30, 2006
30 out of 36 found this review helpful
MuggleNet.com is probably one of the most comprehensive Harry Potter fan sites availabe today. If you are a Harry Potter fan and haven't checked this site out yet...you need to!
This book is Mugglenet.com's labor of love. The site is so devoted to Harry Potter, that it has produced this book as an answer to some of the questions stewing inside fellow Harry Potter fans after the close of Book 6, "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince". Topics this book explores include Dumbledore (is he *really* dead, or isn't he?), life debts (how is the life debt that Wormtail owes to Harry going to come into play?), the identity of R.A.B. (they deduced the same thing I had, and thats that the identity of R.A.B is none other than Regulus Black, Sirius's younger brother!), Questions surrounding the Horcruxes, Professor Snape (good or bad?), and so much more!. There is even a section that discusses each character in relation to their odds of living or dying in Book 7 -- each character receives a well-thought out statistic as far as what are the odds that they will not survive through Book 7, and then a short but detailed reason is given for that character's score. Why would they be a prime target, or perhaps, why *wouldn't* they be a prime target...
Like most unauthorized books discussing various aspects of the world of Harry Potter, this book is truly pure speculation -- albeit well-thought out and researched speculation. Let your imagination go wild, and ponder some of these nagging questions with all the zeal and fandom you can muster!
Admittedly, there isn't much in this book that can't be found on their website, or in a multitude of other Harry Potter "whats going to happen?" theory books -- but I'm a firm believer that half the fun is in researching each and every theory possible! While this book does repeat a lot of information previously produced, it also helps give a little extra insight into the world of Harry Potter. True Potter fans will enjoy it, even if most of it is either steadily repeated information, or ideas they have already thought of or theorized for themselves.
Bottom line, if you're an avid devotee to the website, then the purchase of this book probably isn't worth it. If you're not, you just might enjoy this book, which may possibly be one of the last of it's kind before J.K. Rowling publishes book number 7, and ends the mystery and suspense for us all!
Bottom line, I solemly swear I am up to no good...

This book is nothing more than a collection of the wishful-thinking theories that the fans behind the Mugglenet site have devised. It is not worth the money, when all their predictions are available for free by browsing the opinion pieces and forums online.
If you feel you must know what "revelations" this book holds, poke around some fan sites. It's all been discussed before and there is nothing new here. Additionally, the book is very one-sided in its devotion to "who falls in love", which makes the rest of their claims just as suspect.
Absolutely Pointless Attempt to Cash In on the Harry Potter Frenzy June 5, 2007
21 out of 41 found this review helpful
There was no valid reason this book should have been written (and I use that term loosely as compiling fan discussions on web sites and message boards is not writing). There is only one reason this book was written: to make money for the writers. They were one of many who have added thier names to the growing list of people that have jumped on the Harry Potter cash cow bandwagon and offered nothing substantial to their readers.
The authors have used fan theories as well as thier own theories to present to the readers of this book what they think will happen or what they want to happen. It would do a huge disservice to fans of Harry Potter for this book to raise or dampen the spirts of any readers who might mistakenly believe the authors of this book have certain knowledge of book seven's contents.
Even though J.K. Rowling gave an interview to one of the Mugglenet staff I think it is very safe to say she didn't leak any secrets. Ms. Rowling has pleaded that book seven not be ruined by leaked information. If she is begging others not to leak information it is pretty silly to think she would do it herself.
The bottom line is the only people in the entire world who know what will happen in the final installment of the Harry Potter series are J.K.Rowling and her publisher. Just because Mugglenet is the most popular Harry Potter fansite doesn't mean it holds any "inside" information or can hand you all the secrets you are too impatient or too excited to wait two months to get.
The validity of this book would be like someone writing a book on the next album released by their favorite artist. They could include their own lyric interpretations of all the previous songs by said artist and statments from interviews the artist has done then package that up into what they think the music on their next album will be like. It's a waste of time, money and effort.
Everything in this book is pure speculation and opinion and no one should confuse it with fact in any way.
Don't waste your money on this book. Instead, re-read the first six Harry Potter books and make your own guesses as to how you think the series will end.
Harry Potter Book 6-3/4 November 23, 2006
20 out of 27 found this review helpful
I am *truly* impressed by the scope of the Harry Potter knowledge of these five authors. They identified some minute details of the first six books (and dozens of J.K.Rowling interviews). They then wove these details together flawlessly to support the authors' views of what will happen in Book 7.
This is actually quite an exciting book. In some ways, it's like a mini Book 7. As I read, I kept wondering if J.K.R. will read the book before she finishes writing Book 7. I can just see J.K.R. smiling and hear her saying, "Hmmm. How'd they ever figure *that* out?? Oh well, I'll just have to rewrite that part to show them it's *my* book, not Mugglenet's!"
A small point (but something that really impressed me) was the writing skills of the authors. Their English teachers over the years should be very proud of them!
An excellent job, Mugglenet.com.
