where his civilizations, including our own

I agree about Harry. Besides the usual boyish dislike for tears, he's had a rough life in which tears simply had no place. Know what I'd love to see, though? Weeping -- real, cathartic weeping -- at some point in the series' denouement. Not just for the ruins of his own family, but for, I dunno, the overarching sorrow of the human condition; the irrationality of war, bigotry and all the rest. The weeping of a young man who's seen too much, too soon, and still opts to embrace life in all its terrible glory.
