were jk rowling to be convinced to produce another book in latin --in addition to HP's I and II--, what would you hope for? My first choice woud be HP III, but then what? lord of the flies (latin teachers would have a good chance of arguing that into their curricluums), or catcher in the rye? or, oh man, how 'bout jurassic park? or, yes yes, a little nicolas (senpe?) what would you like to see? and how to get the idea to jk?

why latin? its literally a dead language

I wouldn't think that the demographic that's interested in learning Latin and the demographic that's interested in reading Harry Potter would overlap

You would be surprised how much modern stuff is translated to English, it makes learning the language much easier and slightly more fun.
