There have been analysis books around for ages. Battlestar's had them, Potter's had them, and the copyright owners never went after them.

Rowling’s Harry Potter Saga” focusing more on analysis than the encyclopedic rehashing of Rowling’s saga, then I would also join the minor cacophony and say “frak Rowling”. Since critical analysis is covered under the fair use provisions of copyright law." I believe there *are* such books. They were released years ago, and Rowling did not object to them (AFAIK). “Now if the book were “Analysis of J.K.

I am supposed to be making a presentation in front of high school journalists from around the state Friday. I hope my voice is back by then. :) It’s a collector’s issue show, so everyone should go listen, hahaha!
