Rowling left the door WIDE open for at least one and possibly 2 additional series. If there is a 19 year gap between the end of the Second Battle of Hogwarts and Harry seeing his youngest son off to school there, that's plenty of room for Tales of Harry the Auror, Hermione the Magical Social Worker, Ginny the Healer, Ron the Ministry wonk, etc, etc.

There's also a potential for tales of James, Rose, Albus, Hugo, Lily and Cousin Teddy.

I totally agree. I think JK Rowling left out a lot of details in the epilogue so that she can continue the series eventually. Also, when I read the last few pages of the last chapter, I thought immediately that she was setting up a sequel. All the talk about the stone he left in the forest and the Elder Wand seemed out of place and insignificant for the critical last few pages for an epic journey that spans 7 books over the course of 7 years.

The last few pages of the story after Voldemort was killed seemed very rushed to me. Basically, Harry kills Voldemort and goes upstairs with Hermoine and Ron, they chat a bit, and then it's over. It's like JK Rowling ran out of steam.

I don't think we've seen the last of Harry Potter and his pals.

I suspect she is planning a series based on the kids.........who was Victoire? Bill and Fleur’s child? And Draco’s son Scorpius? What’s with that name? LOL

If she'd spent another ten chapters tidying everything up, Return of the King style, the book would have been too heavy to lift without a winch!
