Guest Lullaby Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 I love the books and they are definately my favorites. The movies aren't as good, but this thread isn't really for that discussion. Anyways JK Rowling just released news that the sixth book is complete and the release date will be let out within the next 24 hours.http://www.mugglenet.com/viewer/?image_loc...ion=hbpdate.gifA copy of the image on her site.http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/MTarchiv...ves/005359.htmlAn article of sorts.

Capt Snow Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 I must say I love these books as well. I remember when they first started soming out with the movies, me and my buddies used to laugh it off as kiddy stuff, but I have since seen the light. Order of the Phoenix, I have never read an 800page book so fast. Rowling is definitely at the top of her craft. I am sad though that the series has to end after the seventh book. But I'm convinced she has more stories under her robe, that she can make just as memorable as Harry Potter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Lullaby Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 It's official! July 16, 2005, will bring the sixth book in the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in the UK, the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.The news comes from Bloomsbury, JKR's British publishers, this morning: "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince takes up the story of Harry Potter's sixth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry at this point as Voldemort's power and followers are increasing day by day, in the midst of this battle of good and evil. The author has already said that the Half-Blood Prince is neither Harry nor Voldemort. Intriguingly, the opening chapter of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince has been brewing in J.K. Rowling's mind for 13 years."No word yet on book length, but the hardback editions will have a recommended retail of 16.99 GBP (about $32).From http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org/MTarchiv..._19.html#005362 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmech Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Its gotta be Hagrid as the half blood - muggle dad, ogre mom... And "You know who" messed with him and got him expelled (the spider) It only makes sense... Hes Harrys confident, and is deeply involved with Dumbledore. I put all my chips on Hagrid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo52285 Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 if its 32 bucks here then the book has to be at least a thousand pages. it will take me two days to read it. i cant wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Lullaby Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 Rowling said it wouldn't be longer than OoTP. So unless she went against that it will be less than 800 pages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingSupra Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 these bokks have been getting longer and longer though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lullaby Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 About a month ago, maybe more or maybe less she released three chapter titles for book six. Chapter two: Spinners End Chapter six: Draco's Detour Chapter fourteen: Felix Felicis She also released the description of someone soon after the title of the book was released in June, but I can't find where I saved it. If I do I will post it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lullaby Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 these bokks have been getting longer and longer though.Yes I've noticed that, but she said it wouldn't be longer than the 5th. We'll just have to wait and see when it comes out or see if she says anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo52285 Posted December 22, 2004 Share Posted December 22, 2004 well i mean the 5th one was like 27 bucks and it was a long book. so it this one is 32 bucks then it has to be longer unless the publisher is using some expensive paper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
