   Indeed, though the rot could be seen in the months preceeding the release of   
   the DH book.  Not just here either, there were many web forums that imploded   
   when some plot elements came to pass and it was clear to certain elements in   
   the fandom that they weren't going to get their way.   
      
   Personally I suspect that much of DH was written at the same time as PS and   
   that much of it was more a fleshing out of the outline rather than an all   
   new book.   
      
   My favourite book will remain HBP as it felt like the characters were fully   
   fleshed out by that time and ready for a quest that never really lived up to   
   it's promise.   
      
   All IMO of course.
