Grossman actually said his series was supposed to be a "deconstruction" of Harry Potter (I....thought Harry Potter deconstructed itself, really, but whatever) and "Wouldn't it be awful for the guy whose life peaked in high school? What would you do after that?" like he thought Harry Potter was some magical jock whose life ended after the Final Year Quidditch Championship Season. I don't even know.
I do like some aspects of the books, but I find the show adapted from them a whole lot better, and a lot of the fic is great.
