Harry Potter and the Cursed Child: Q and A

Question: In general, what was the story about?

Answer: It’s mostly about Harry and his son, Albus: Harry’s life after Hogwarts, and  Albus’ Hogwarts life.

Q: Do you think it would be something J.K. Rowling would write herself in an eighth story or more fan-fiction?

A: I definitely think it was more of a fan-fiction because it’s just not really the way Harry thinks in the original seven stories, but then again I can’t know for sure if J.K. Rowling would or wouldn’t write something like Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

Q: What makes this book any more than fan-fiction?

A: Well I think the fact that it was originally made as a play might have had something to do with the selling point, and seeing as it was published in a hardcover and selling in stores, unlike other fan-fictions.

Q: What was the best part in the book for you (with no spoilers)?

A: The best part is (for me) would probably be seeing them in an environment different than Hogwarts and a new responsibility for Harry and the others.

Q: What is the setting in the story; how is it different than Hogwarts?

A: Harry is now in London working in the Ministry of Magic. He no longer a student at Hogwarts and he has the responsibility of children and a position at the Ministry. He is in a real world environment and has to be more responsible altogether.
