  Barry Trotter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Barry Trotter is a series of Harry Potter parodies written by Michael Gerber and published in the UK in a small hardback format uniform to the new edition of Bored of the Rings.
Trotter is perhaps the most accurate parody of his counterpart, and is portrayed as an arrogant, sadistic oppurtunist.
Barry was made famous in the series by a series of books written by J.G. Rollins (a parody on J.K. Rowling).

Barry Trotter is 22 and has never left the Hogwash School of Magic - there's been no need; after all, G.K. Rollin's books about him have made him a millionaire, and Barry is perfectly happy to while away his days as a perpetual (loaded) student.
Barry agrees a plan with Bumblemore: the film must be stopped.

 Barry Trotter And The Unnecessarily Sequel
Where we last left Barry Trotter and friends, he was married to Ermine Cringer and all is well in Hogwash as the evil Lord Valumart is smashed and JG Rollins churns out more bestselling books based on sanitized versions of Barry's life, drawing more non-magical humans or Muddles to Hogwash for groupie activities.
Barry and Ermine go along because Hogwart is also holding a reunion for the old gang.
At first Ermine is delighted as Barry's sexual stamina at thirty-eight isn't what it used to be, but if Barry keeps getting younger, than means one day he'll pop back into pre-conception stage (meaning, he'll be erased from existence).

Michael Gerber's Barry Trotter and the Shameless Parody does to Harry Potter what Bored of the Rings did to Tolkien--burying the very English original in showers of quick-fire gags, mangled character names, and Americanisms.
It stuck to the plot of The Lord of the Rings, but--probably for fear of lawsuits--Shameless Parody rambles in all directions, poking fun at JK Rowling's characters, her fans, the worldwide Potter phenomenon and moviemakers Warner Brothers too.
The hero of Barry Trotter and the Philosopher's Scone (in America, Barry Trotter and the Magic Biscuit) is now in his 11th year at Hogwash School for Wizards, aged 22.
