I am down with a McGonagal book so hard. Her Pottermore biography was awesome, and I was hoping to see it in greater detail.

This franchise is really falling into the same trap as a whole bunch of other franchises that should have stayed dead and got forced revivals.

Gross

Isn't this sort of stuff what Pottermore was for?

Yes, and that's where you'll be able to read them though I do wish they would be released in regular book format.

I'm sure this franchise will grow to the level of Star Wars down the line. Let JK hire other writers and form something similar to the Lucasfilm Story Group to expand the universe she's created through new books, an animated series set in another timeline, spinoff movies (which they're already doing).

I don't think Rowling would really give other authors that level of control over the story.
I bet she's only doing this to feel relevant. A new Harry Potter 'expanded universe' book written by John Doe and not J.K. Rowling doesn't help with that.
