If you’re a true Harry Potter fan, then I suspect that you, like me, had an impending sense of dread as you neared the final pages of the final book. After it all, it was the end of an era- and as far as I could tell at the time, there wasn’t much new Harry Potter content on the horizon (besides a few movies, of course). 

These books were released over a 10 year period spanning my entire adolescence, and needless to say- they were pretty important to me. 

Every release felt like a cultural event, and every chapter felt like stepping back into a world that- at times- felt more real than reality itself.

So when I turned that final page of Deathly Hallows, I couldn’t help but feel… hollow.

Not because the ending was bad — far from it. But because I wasn’t ready to leave.

And sure, over the years we got more content — the Fantastic Beasts films, the Cursed Child play, and various other things — but none of it quite scratched that same itch. None of it picked up where Deathly Hallows left off in a way that felt fully satisfying.

But what if there was ANOTHER book? A book that gave us REAL clarity on the aftermath of Voldemort’s downfall. A story that didn’t skip ahead nineteen years to a peaceful train station, but instead started in the rubble of Hogwarts — when the war was over. A story that could replace the words ‘All was well’ — not to placate us, but to finally show us what came next.

That’s the story I want to explore.
