An Eight Harry Potter Book will be out later in the year



Yep, we’re surprised too. A new Harry Potter book is coming. Picture: AP Photo/Warner Bros.





An eight official Harry Potter book will be released on July 31 this year - but there’s a catch.

Named Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, the story is set 19 years after the end of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Yep, Harry is adulating.

Here’s what goes down, according to the official website:

“It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn’t much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband and father of three school-age children.


The new “book” in the series.

“While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places”.

Cursed Child is not a conventional book, but rather, the script of a play set to open on London’s West End in July this year. It’s based on a new story by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany.
