We are days away from the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. With so many questions in the air of how the series will end and how the final battle will go down, how do you think this beautifully crafted series will come to a climatic finish??

There are many theories floating around the web. Websites and users alike dedicated to predicting the last novel of an orphan boy who was born a wizard. Questions left with the last novel, Harry Potter and the Half- Blood Prince, feed these theories as well as past story lines that have been left unfinished. Is Snape good or bad? Is Sirius dead? How will Dumbledore appear in this last book if he is indeed dead? I will delve into the most popular insinuations.

Firstly, the two most important topics left for speculation in book 6th are what Snape's position is and what about the horcruxes. As you see in the last book, Snape killed Dumbledore. Shocking as it was it might have been planned. In book four there is a dialogue where Dumbledore asked Snape if he knows what he now has to do. What he has to do isn't said but it could be assumed that if the time came that Snape would "prove" his loyalty to the dark side to get back in with Voldemort by destroying Dumbledore. To further push the betting on good, Snape has always been trusted by Dumbledore, no matter what Harry said, and he has had plenty of chances to get rid of Harry himself but hasn't and has even saved Harry's life.

But not all about Snape is good. There is the fact that was once a Death- Eater, a Voldemort follower, and he hates Harry with a passion. The one the morals of the story is that killing is wrong which was proved when Harry didn't let Sirius or Lupin kill Peter because that would make them murderers. Snape's killing may not be redeemable in the eyes of some fans for that fact. It also shows that he choose his life over Dumbledore's, showing a very selfish nature. He could have easily stood up to the Death- Eaters or break is Unbreakable Vow.
