+I just want to shout loud agreement with many_ these_ negative_
+reviews_ of “`Harry Potter and the Cursed Child`_”. It is really
+a bad fan fiction signed off by J. K. Rowling for reasons I don’t
+want to speculate about (yes, I guess, most her money go to
+Lumos, so that is the good thing in the end). No, I don’t want to
+consider it as a cannon (even though apparently J. K. Rowling
+does_). Anyway, that review would not make me write this post,
+because all these reviews on YouTube covered the play better than
+I could. I believe, certainly theatre play should be better seen
+on the stage, so perhaps it is better and it doesn’t sound so
+horrible when played by real actors. Anyway.
+
+The thing which made me to write this post was this_. One thing
+which actually bothered me in the original novels was that
+I really wanted Harry to turn up into the teacher of DADA. Harry
+is the guy who got a bunch of the fifth (and some fourth) year
+kids with poor or none training in the combat. Lupin didn’t teach
+much of real combat, spent most time with defense against
+dangerous animals/creatures, and other teachers … well.  So he
+got this bunch of kids and whipped them in three or four months
+into an unit which was able to sustain an attack by the
+two-to-one numerically superior group of fighters of the caliber
+of Bellatrix Lestrange (and most or all of them producing The
+Patronus Charm which is supposed to be extremely difficult). Yes,
+it was just for a moment, and they need help of the Order of
+Phoenix to actually save their asses, but still I think it is an
+achievement which most actual graduates from the Hogwarts can
+just dream about. Whatever this guy does is the pure waste of
+time if it is not teaching and training!
+
+Yes, this is not a proper review, but I really don’t want to
+waste more time on this book. Take a look at all those reviews
+I linked to, and I agree with them wholeheartedly.
