> But Pippin, this is a book about magic and wizards and such. The WW 
is supposed to be more powerful and hence more deadly than the Muggle 
world. I wanted a Voldemort that exemplified those great and terrible 
things that Ollivander warned me about. I wanted him worse than those 
dictators you speak of. The other side has magic too, remember. And 
as the bad guys, I expected that they had no compunctions against 
using those spells that Dumbledore was too noble to use. I wanted to 
see those spells, I wanted something to have come from Voldemort's 
world travels.
 
I expected to be scared of more than Voldemort's organizational  
skills. How staid is that?

Tiffany:

I agree that LV didn't exactly scare me in DH like he did in SS.  
I'll always respect a flair for the dramatic because I've got that 
also, but I just wasn't too impressed by his decision making later on 
in the series.  He let his ego get in the way far too often when 
making these wonderful plans of his.  I expected LV to be a great & 
powerful wizard that we were told about more often.  I will give him 
credit though for his knowledge of the dark arts & black magic.  
However, that in itself isn't too much in the WW if it's all you've 
got to offer.
