Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows


Final 'Harry Potter' title announced

NEW YORK - We now have a title for Book VII: " Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows."

But if you want to find out for yourself, visit J.K. Rowling's Web site, jkrowling.com, and play a little game of hangman.

Rowling's U.S. publisher, Scholastic, Inc., released a brief statement Thursday announcing the name of the world's most anticipated children's book, the finale to her phenomenally popular fantasy series.

No publication date or other details were offered. Rowling is still working on the book, she wrote on her Web site in an entry posted early Thursday.

"I'm now writing scenes that have been planned, in some cases, for a dozen years or even more," she wrote. "I don't think anyone who has not been in a similar situation can possibly know how this feels: I am alternately elated and overwrought. I both want, and don't want, to finish this book (don't worry, I will.)"

Meanwhile, she set up a little game for her Potter fans.

If you go to her home page, click on the eraser and you will be taken to a room — you'll see a window, a door and a mirror.

In the mirror, you'll see a hallway. Click on the farthest doorknob and look for the Christmas tree. They click on the center of the door next to the mirror and a reef appears. Then click on the top of the mirror and you'll see a garland.

Look for a cobweb next to the door. Click on it, and it will disappear. Now, look at the chimes in the window. Click on the second chime to the right, and hold it down. The chime will turn into the key, which opens the door. Click on the wrapped gift behind the door, then click on it again and figure out the title yourself by playing a game of hangman.

Or you can just take Scholastic's word for it.

I think I'm going to make it my 2007 new year resolution to read at least one Harry Potter book.

I hear they're kinda good...

I'm not into Wizards and Dragons and stuff.

But I am VERY INTERESTED in learning more about Lord of the RIngs. Like why would Liv Tyler sometimes show up and just make out with that Mortenson dude.

It's not a children's book. FFS. It has mass appeal, but I know as many adults that love the series as kids.

With that said, I can't wait for this book...one of my biggest fears in the world is JK dying before she completes this series.

If NEZ says anything bad about Potter, he should be banned.

I thought she had already written the book. Maybe it is just the last chapter she already has written.
