Harry Potter book 4 &7 - you're opinion?

ok i was listening to the harry potter and the goblet of fire audio book again, and i noticed something. in the end, when harry's in dumbledore's office and is telling him and sirius about what happened in the graveyard, he shows them where wormtail took blood from his arm. then it says harry thought he saw "a flash of something like triumph" across dumbledore's face. after reading book 7, this seems like it would be a clue to the plot in book 7, about how harry and voldemort are tied together like no two wizards have ever been before. what are your thoughts on this? and why would dumbledore look triumphant? does he WANT harry to die?
ok i know he doesn't want harry to die


I don't think he wanted Harry to die, no, but he probably felt like something good had come out of it. Dumbledore wanted Harry to live, but he didn't want him to live his whole life protected, as explained in book 5.

    Suffers this same small letdown.  The idea – a young boy, orphaned after the brutal murder of his family, is raised by the ghosts that inhabit a nearby graveyard – is pretty awesome.  The execution, while still very entertaining and enjoyable, is just enough less awesome to be disappointing.  Maybe I expect too much from Gaiman, but if that’s the case it’s his own fault for having such awesome ideas.

    The best part about is how it celebrates life through the constant presence of death.  This theme emerges so naturally from the content of the book that it doesn’t ever feel cliche or preachy.  Gaiman also ties everything together nicely in the end.  Unfortunately, there are too many parts that drag along the way to make it excellent from beginning to end.
