Review of 'HARRY POTTER AND THE CURSED CHILD (PARTS ONE AND TWO) (Chinese Edition) by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne, John Tiffany' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
Nice piece of fanfiction. I liked the glimpse into the HP universe after all these years, but I don't know if a novel wouldn't have been better. Everything feels too quick, too hastly and if it would take place on a stage with a cardboard set. I am missing the details, the depth of the books. The story is interesting, but I do like time traveling stories, so YMMV. It felt like a particular good episode of Doctor Who with the cast of Harry Potter. Entertaining and nice, even if I kept asking myself how they are going to do all the magic special effects on a stage. Read if you are a fan (who isn't?), keep away if you are not or if you hate/want to forget the epilogue that shall not be mentioned.
