...Teh Unambiguously Eeevil Slytherin House has bugged me for several books now.
Yeah, that's one of the reasons the introduction of Slughorn's character in book 6 was so interesting-- an example of ambitious but not evil. Previously, things in the books had been mostly cast in black and white. There was also that comment in book 5 about how "the world isn't divided into Death-Eaters and [non-Death-Eaters]". Taken together, I was impressed by those steps towards shades-of-gray and was expecting that trend to continue in book 7. So much for that.
