> There are supposed to be several satires of the Harry Potter books out. I have managed to come across only one of them, "Harry Potter and the Completely Unnecessary Sequel." It's OK, good in spots but nowhere near as good or expert as the Harvard Lampoon's send up of Lord of the Rings ("Bored of the Rings" or the Lampoons masterpiece on Frank Herbert's "Dune" entitled "Doon"

Barry Trotter is a UK one I've seen - it's not a great read though - they rarely are - just an attempt at a quick buck.

Wikipedia has a full list - most people can't extend the gags for more than a few books tho.
