Last Potter Book Gets Title

Title of J.K. Rowling's final Harry Potter book released

NEW YORK (AP) -- We now have a title for Book VII: "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows."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 explained 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.)"

We here at BTG love all the Harry Potter books, and we were excited to hear the seventh and final book will be coming out sometime in 2007! In the meantime, catch up on the other books! Click on any of the covers to purchase books and other Harry Potter merchandise at Amazon.com.
