Barry Trotter: worth a read?

[chiara.fantoni at cec.eu.int]

Hi everyone!

I've been redirected from the main HPFGU list, so I'll have my try here, I
hope you don't mind!

I was wondering in a bookshop in The Hague - Holland on Saturday (I live in
Belgium) - and alongside the usual HP books, all in English, at least for
OOTP as the Dutch version is still to come out, I saw these two books which
are announced as a parody.

Went through a couple of pages, didn't have enough money with me as my
credit card has been blocked for security reasons, but they look nice
enough.

Is it worth buying them for the fun (they are not cheap, but the price is
still acceptable) or should I stick to the original?

I must say I'm a late fan, having been taken almost against my will to see
the second film and then decided I wanted to read the books (and watch the
first film)...

Has any of you read them?

The commentaries on Amazon are not so bad, any comments?
