I've just published a new book that might interest members of this
list.
It's called Harry Potter and Torah, and it's a collection of Jewish
insights into themes raised in the Harry Potter series.
http://www.harrypottertorah.com/
The book is written for adults or teens, not for kids, and contains
Jewish perspectives on everything from magic wands and ghosts and owl
post to magical protection and creating bodies.
Every idea in the book is based on traditional Jewish scholarship,
but the book is written to be understood by people with little or no
background. (Readers who enjoy Jewish scholarship with enjoy more
than 300 footnotes.)

The book's Web site contains more information, including links to buy
teh book, the table of contents, and a sample chapter.
