Maybe i"m reading too much into them, but those are the messages I get from it, and why I actually consider them "Conservative" books.

So do I. She demolishes a certain type of socialist-educrat thinking with her Professor Umbrage. Also what got me was that one of the O.W.L.S. exam questions concerned whether "wand legislation" helped or hurt goblin riots. Of couse, it wasn't answered but just asking it implies that there may be another view to the matter than the assumed anti-conservative one.

Another very conservative writer is Dean Koontz. He rips Gray Davis big time in "One Door Away From Heavan"

Her last book had an anti-fascist message with Umbridge trying to take over the school. I didn't see anything having to do with socialism. Fudge believed what he wanted despite evidence to the contrary.

If you're looking for other books, keep an eye out on Shadowmancer, by G.P. Taylor. I just ordered it from Amazon UK, and it goes on sale in the US in a few months:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0399242562/qid=1081184653/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/104-3720730-8092727?v=glance&s=books

I understand it's a Christian fantasy along the lines of C.S. Lewis; maybe a bit more overt than that. I'm looking forward to it.
