about).  I am quite sure that Dumbledore will also die along the 
way.  Believe me, Voldemort will not go peacefully!  

I wonder if the key to killing Voldemort is related to how Harry 
originally survived (i.e., the power of Lily's love protecting Harry, 
unforseen by Voldemort). Might Harry have to make the ultimate 
sacrifice and give his own life/love to save the entire world? As 
saddening as the idea of offing Harry is--it does seem fair to the 
story and characters. JKR would probably go there. (Of course, that's 
not to say her publishers would actually let her at this point.)
