A year later my book group did book four (p version) and it was less impressive then the first three. I eventually read book five (p again) on my own, but it was such struggle against overwhelming mediocrity that I'll not bother with the rest. How and why these book became the gold standard of reading is beyond me. Maybe I'm too old. I don't have kids and I don't read kids books in general. I just could really care about very silly magic at boarding school.

That said, it is rather counterintuitive for the publishers not to release legal ebook versions.
