Its pretty middling quality writing largely surviving on the Nostalgia of its fans as children. There's really no good reason to make them remain relevant. There's a lot better out there already.

None of this is new, of course Fans acted like this about Star Wars, Star Trek, Dune, Lord of the Rings, Sherlock Holmes But the Internet really did lock a whole generation of nerdy teenagers in, like if you didn't read Harry Potter you had nothing to talk to people about

For the sake of my notifications (lol) I have to mute it now. Good points were made. Definitely, things to consider. For me, it comes down to not being able to enjoy something knowing the creator is such a crap human being. I'm just sad for my kids and others who were fans.
