dvang 23,884 Posted February 12, 2016 Share Posted February 12, 2016 The script from the forthcoming Harry Potter play has leapt to the top of bestseller lists, a day after its July release was announced. A hardback edition of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child - Parts I & II will be released on 31 July, the day after the play has debuted on stage in London. Following Wednesday's news, pre-orders have propelled it to number one on theAmazon and Waterstones book charts. The play sees Harry as a father and an overworked Ministry of Magic employee. The script is from an original new story by JK Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child will tell the "untold part" of the boy wizard's story, including the story of the lives of his murdered parents, Rowling has said. In a statement, Waterstones said it expected pre-orders to break all records and were already exceeding those for Harper Lee's Go Set a Watchman over the comparable period. Last year, Go Set a Watchman was the first title whose pre-orders reached the heights of those for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows in 2007. James Daunt, chief executive of Waterstones, also told Radio 4's Today the "prospect of an eighth volume is extraordinarily exciting". full article : http://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-35558385 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
