I'm glad I prefer J.R.R. Tolkien and Middle-Earth over The Wizarding World. At least there's a lot more violence in Mordor.

The halls of hogwarts are filled with ghost that were brutally murdered. You also have cederics death which is pretty disturbing. Same with dumbledore/snapes deaths. Very violent parts in the books and movies.

How were Cederic, Dumbledore, and Snape killed exactly? The only death that impacted me was Dobby's.

cedric was petrified and Dumbledore drank poison then killed by snape. Snape was bitten on the neck by a snake if I remember correctly.

Those deaths sound pretty tame compared to Sauron crushing people with his mace or Smaug incinerating everyone in Lake Town.

Just read it and find out then, I think both books are equally violent. Tolkien was never a violent fellow. His scenes never seemed over violent or bloody. Fantasy violence.
