Sorry if this theory has been floated before, but I think it's quite a 
good prediction, if not, at least one I haven't seen or heard of 
before!

My new prediction for book 5 (or actually, any of the future books 
really) is that Voldemort is going to give Harry a major choice 
between something that is easy, and something that is right. When 
thinking about what the choice could possibly be, I came up with the 
idea that Voldemort could somehow offer to bring Harry's parents back 
to life, if Harry joins the Death Eaters, and becomes Voldemort's 
"partner" (or something) in world domination. Or else maybe Harry has 
to turn in or sacrifice one of his friends (Ron?) or a teacher 
(Dumbledore?) to get his parents back. 

I think this would be a really good way to illustrate the difficult 
choice between what is easy and what is right (a theme which JKR said 
in a few interviews will feature in a major role in the coming books). 
Actually, I think that kind of idea was first used in "the Magician's 
Nephew" by C. S Lewis, but oh well, I think it would be such an 
interesting/thought provoking/heart wrenching thing to see Harry have 
to make such a decision.

Anyway, that's just a theory, I'd love to hear people pick holes in 
it!!:p
