New Harry Potter not released as an e-book

Moldova.ORG -- Reports that JK Rowling would release the seventh and last “Harry Potter” episode as an e-book were refuted by a lawyer from her literary agency.

According to RTE.ie the hardcover edition of the new book, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows” is scheduled for release on July 21 on Bloomsbury Publishing in Britain and Scholastic in the United States.

The books in the series would not be published online, citing piracy concerns as the main reason, as Neil Blair told the Associated Press.

He also said Rowling prefers printed editions to online publications.

The first six books about the adventures of the young wizard have sold more than 325 million copies. Advance orders for the last book are already breaking Amazon.com records.

Publication date: 06 February 2007
