I'm not sure if I agree with all of this, but it's nice to see the series get some attention.

It's hard to say anything about ASoUE that I haven't read already - most of my thoughts on reading the article were actually about Harry Potter - but indeed, it's good to see the anniversary go acknowledged.

I don’t agree with a few things in this article, perhaps particularly the writer’s assertion that Harry Potter is ‘aggressively simplistic’, a statement I think is total rubbish, but, as you say, it is nice to see the anniversary marked in some way.
