Can't wait for the ultimate reveal that Hitler was a wizard and he cast an evil spell on the poor, unsuspecting German people
It turns out that you can try as hard as you can with all sorts of edgy bullshit, but a kid's book is still a kid's book, especially when you do the whole "yeah magic can block radio waves and turn off guns and mind control people, and wizards see ordinary humans as subhuman, but world events are still exactly the same"
Dresden files is incredibly lib brained too, and I have no doubt that Jim staying away for twitter is the main reason I can still stomach the series. Also, I need to read the last two books but I'm procrastinating on it.

The important thing is the Nazis images are rehabilitated.
Harry Potter and the Adventures of Klaus Barbie!
Harry helps Barbie prevent the future where an evil populist coca farmer gets in power :evo:
Urban fantasy don't work for audiences >12 yo
Yeah, the part where they have a class showing teenagers how to make date rape drugs doesn't really fly, does it
Uh, don't remember that one but it's implied by the existence of "love potions"
Dresden Files? Not all urban fantasy is YA. And not all YA is harry pooter.
American Gods and Anansi Boys are fucking great also.
I loved American Gods for doing it all in a one-off book. One of my friends still has that as a matter of fact...

That or portraying some of the occult nazis as actual wizards will probably happen.
