Harry Potter and the Deus Ex Machina. The plot was not seeded in the preceding 6 books, despite them all doing the world building and the setup of the climax of the story. The worst of the series. Again action packed to distract from the lack of both plot and character development. Much of the beloved wider cast is killed off to distract from the lack of high stakes.
