There is only going to be seven books in the series. I have no clue how you got eight J.K Rowling has never said eight. The seventh year is the last year that the Harry Potter gang spend at Hogwarts. J.K Rowling also said in a newer interview that after the seventh Harry Potter book she isn't going to be writing fantasy anymore.
I thought that the sixth book was amazing I finished it last night.
I couldn't stand the Won- Won/ Wav- Wav thing it was really odd. Hermione kicked ass in this book.

well i was wondering about the half blood prince. to me i had several suspicions.


-tom marvolo riddle jr.
-merode gaunt
-lilly evans.but then i realised that the age didnt wuite fit in

i was wondering..i have so many questions because i am a huge HP fan.

Q1. in the 4th book, Tom Marvolo used a potion to bring him to his body. now i was wondering. if tom marvolo needed a horcrux to bring him back what was the horcrux that brought him back? was it his father's bones or something?

Q2.If sectrumspra was a part of dark magic and it was created by snape then wouldnt it be obvious to harry before the duel in the astronomy tower that snape was obviously evil if he could make such spells?

Q3.Why did snape hesitate to help narcissa when he was undoubtfully evil at the time?

I think that at the end of the 7th book jkr should tie up loose ends in the trio's friendship. instead of drawing out the last year long she should have him finish the year knowing how to defeat tom riddle and have and after-harry-kills-him paragraph or two on his new life and the wizarding world.

heres you answer to number 2
Harry didnt know that snape had mde up the spell until he used them on him on the grounds when snape and malfoy were running away that was when snape told Harry that he wa sthe half blood prince

and Q #3
i think that was because that was not part of the plan at the time and i think it might have been bella that persuaded him to do it with the questions that she aske him

Q #1(took a while to think up a possible answer)
well for Voldemort to make a horcrux, he needs to kill some one and i think that it was either his fathers bones(which arent trophies of the dark lord) or Harrys blood. i now thingk that it might have been Harry blood that had the Horcrux in side him but Voldemort took it
What do you think?

Q2. Harry knew snape had invented those spells when harry first used them on mallfoy in moaning myrtle's bathroom and snape wanted to look through harry's advanced potion makings for 6th years.So how come then harry didnt realize it. and to add onto the little question. If harry had doubts that snape was the half blood prince then why did snape keep that book for so long?

Q1.

>>his fathers bones(which arent trophies of the dark lord) or Harrys blood
<<in fact they were. Tom was proud that he got rid of his muggle father. he even said so in book2 that in gaining his 'lord voldemort' he got rid of his father. h he kept that ring morfin had.


remember how harry asked if you could use animals? dumbledore said that it would depend since they are living they can overcome the spirit in which the horcrux was placed. It would seem stupid for voldemort to place the horcrux in harry sonce he was almost as powerful as voldemort before he took his bllod. And if he did harry could easily overcome that spirit since it was broken down into 7 parts. although it says that 7 would be stronger, but not as individuals it would make him stronger in the end, as a whole but not split up.

well we know what some of the horcrux were: the diary, the ring and the necklace, and the cup and voldemorts bones are the 4&5 but then whats the 6th one i mean it could be any thing
what do think about that one and also about the R.A.B that was singed on the bottom of the note
i think it was sirius' brother Regulus Black

I think I knew Dumbledore was going to die from the start. As soon as I heard there was going to be a death, I thought of him. The one thing that shocked me was Snape killing him. I gasped when I read that. Poor Dumblie... :cry:

that's what i tohught at first.

But the thing is. voldemort never spoke or horcruxes before. harry and dumbledore were the only to know of it because of the memory so how could sirius's brother know?

i knew malfoy didnt have the guts but i was convinced snape was on dumbledore's side.


but you have to tihnk. dumbledore told harry to do what ever dumbledore said even if he would die.

and in the end snape didnt wish to harm harry, he wanted him to stay at the castle like he was hiding something that harry nor tom riddle knew.(although voldemort wants to kill harry, if you re-read that part and look closely at what snape says i think youll understand)

i think it was apart of dumbledore's plan to die.Like to make tom riddle to be fully convinced snape was on his side.
