    Yes, IIRC the “Unforgivable Curses” either carry a death penalty or wizard prison forever or something. But by the third or forth book every bad guy is a Wizard Nazi who doesn’t care about those consequences and the good guys are all fighting Wizard Nazis and are at least semi-justified in trying to kill them right back.

    It basically devolves instantly into gun-fights, except instead of guns it’s a specific spell.
