    Fine, will you settle for wrestling to the death with cephalopods* as the weapon of choice then?

    *Your choice of octopuss or squid.

    You could have made some serious money if he let you buy some of them. I bet you could find people that would pay 50+ for them if it was early enough.

    Well, I just finished the book. Very sad. Quite deppressing, actually.

    And this is not a children's book. In fact, you probably wouldn't want a child reading this, theres some things that you don't want an eleven year old reading.

    I dunno. There's plenty of dark children's books; the <i>His Dark Materials</i> triology, for example.

    Snidely is now my official champion of the world.

    I just finished it. Ending was rather poop. Blatant cliffhanger rubbish really.

    *Because these birds are often given discarded cuttlefish 'shells' to chew on in their cages, so it trumps your cuttlefish. YOU FELL INTO MY DEVIOUS PLOT.

    Now for an insightful quote:

    "Why aren't you supposed to do magic?" asked Harry.

    "Oh, well -- I was at Hogwarts meself but I -- er -- got expelled, ter tell yeh the truth. In me third year. They snapped me wang in half an' everything"

    Incidently, I've been up for over 24 hours. I AM GOING MAD MUAHAHAHHAHAHA

    JK Rowling said that she's making exactly 7 books. Nothing more, nothing less.

    She's already made 8 based from the Harry Potter series. 2 Quidditch ones and 6 novels.
  • CForresterCForrester P0rk(h0p Join Date: 2002-10-05 Member: 1439Members, Constellation
    Do the Quidditch books follow the main storyline? If they don't, they can't really be counted.

Rowling is going to sell the books in China, but with some <a href='http://www.guardian.co.uk/online/weblogs/story/0,14024,1506602,00.html' target='_blank'>modifications</a>. For example, "Hogwarts Acadamy" is replaced with "Hogwarts Disciplinary Centre", "freedom" is replaced with "desire to comply with the state" and "human rights" replaced with "right to be subjugated", among other numerous changes. Here's an extract from the first book, where Hagrid comes and takes Harry away from his evil burgeoise parents.
