I always knew that Sirius would not last out the series. I mourned the loss of Fred, but such things happen in both real and fictional life. 


Remus and Nymphadora, though, that was tough.I would have liked to have seen them live on in the series. I wasn't the one writing the books, though.

 As the son of a father who died as a result of war service, I'm 'glad' JKR killed Fred. And Remus. And Sirius. I didn't like losing any of those characters, but I think it's really important that literature acknowledges the fundamental tragedy that in war good people die. I think it's especially important that we don't conceal that fact from kids in works aimed at them. [snip]
