Harry Potter theory behind the cut

[trystinn]

I'm desperately trying to figure out the LJ Objects, so on the off chance I've royally screwed this up, stop reading NOW if you don't want to read the spoiler ahead!


Went by Wind & Tide Bookstore today to pick up the book Sebastian told me to read and had a great conversation with regards to the new Potter book. When I did so, each of them looked shocked, started humming and began nodding.  So I was asked to "put it out there" to see how others respond so when we get back together on Friday for our "Post-Potter bookreview club" we can go over responses.



"Harry Potter is the last Horcrux. Which makes sense of various loose threads. Why Harry has Voldemort's powers, why Voledmort needs to control him, and definately explains a lot more about why Harry was the "Chosen One". Since his mother was killed by Voldemort, thereby necessitating the making of/or creation of Harry as the Horcrux and why Voldemort wasn't able to kill him while a baby. The only thing I've quite yet to work out, is does Voldemort really want to kill Harry, given that destroying all the Horcruxes should
reduce Voldemort back to his mortal self?"

That Harry is the final horcrux is being widely discussed on the Potter lists I'm on, and pretty much for the reasons you give. Now ... I've not read the current book yet (it's sitting on the desk in another room), but FWIW, I don't think Moldy is aware that Harry is a horcrux.

But I also think that the Phoenix will rise again and that we've not seen the last of Padfoot.

Oh cool...I avoid those threads, but maybe its time to put an eye out in that direction.

The Phoenix will indeed arise.
