JK Rowling built a billion dollar children’s franchise shortly after Dahls death.

True. Although her audience is a little older than I was thinking. Also I didn't think of her because I don't like her writing, I find it boring. The stories are ok but the way she presents it is dull, to me. Obviously that's a minority opinion given her broad appeal.

I don't think it will be a minority opinion, given the test of time. I think HP's star is already waning (and no, I don't mean because of the author's views on certain subjects; I think the faddishness of HP itself is already wearing off).

A game based on her work is a top seller on steam right now. Her books are still being sold at grocery stores.

I don't think HP will become irrelevant any time soon.

Loads and loads of very young readers have relished the HP books.
