"The first book has a feeling of 'Oooh, magic is so cool, I wish I could do that, neat!' And now with this one it's more like, 'NO MORE OWLS AND CUTESY CRAP. MAGIC IS SERIOUS SHIT. If you aren't good at using it you will be TOAST.'"
I dunno why this amuses me so much. Maybe it's an "i r Sirius dog, this r Sirius thread"-like thing.
ETA: LOL!
(more if you clicky it)
More ETA: WTF "Rabastan" Lestrange? Why is it not Rastaban, which is also an astronomical name? cf. Draco, Scorpius, Bellatrix, Sirius, Regulus, Andromeda...? It also leaves one to speculate about possible Arcturus, Antares, Aldebaran, Algol, Capella, Vega, triplets (perhaps fraternal) Alnitak, Alnilam and Mintaka, and poor unfortunately-named second cousin Betelgeuse. ;)
