Potioncat:
Thanks for that head's up. It's a very interesting review, and would be 
worth discussing in itself. King approaches the series from a different 
direction than we uber-fans do.

Here's a quote from the review that particularly caught my attention:

http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20044270_20044274_20050689,00.html
"If all those creative spells — produced at the right moment like the 
stuff from Crusoe's ship — were a sign of creative exhaustion, it's the 
only one I saw, and that's pretty amazing. Mostly Rowling is just 
having fun, knocking herself out, and when a good writer is having fun, 
the audience is almost always having fun too. You can take that one to 
the bank (and, Reader, she did)."
