Geoff:
I'm sorry that you were "upset" and disappointed by Book 6.

I agree with Sarah that I fail to see how JKR could have filled a complete book 
with gripping and interest-grabbing events following the defeat of Voldemort 
when Harry's life - and our glimpse into it - has been dominated by the need 
to remove him for the last X years.

We do know that Jo Rowling has said that the last chapter of Book 7 is going 
to be an epilogue and that, surely, should be enough to wrap up what happens 
in the post-war Wizarding World.
