Harry Potter by biomic(f): 12:44am On Dec 22, 2006
The name of the long-awaited seventh and last Harry Potter book has been revealed today in a puzzle on the author's website.

Booksellers are already predicting that the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be the literary event of the year but a date has yet to be set by JK Rowling's publishers, Bloomsbury.

On her website Rowling, 41, admits that she is still writing the book about Harry's last year at Hogwarts school.

She said: "I’m now writing scenes that have been planned, in some cases, for a dozen years or even more. I both want, and don’t want, to finish this book."

But she reassured expectant fans: "Don’t worry, I will."

The multi-millionaire recently hinted that two characters are expected to die in the finale - and Harry himself might not survive - saying: "We are dealing with pure evil here.

"They don’t target extras, do they? They go for the main characters - well, I do."

Ms Rowling reveals the title of the book through a puzzle and a game of hangman



Cracking the puzzle

If you go to www.jkrowling.com, click on the eraser and you will be taken to a room with a window, a door and a mirror.

In the mirror, you will see a hallway. Click on the farthest doorknob and look for the Christmas tree. Then click on the centre of the door next to the mirror and a wreath appears. Then click on the top of the mirror and you will see a garland.

Look for a cobweb next to the door. Click on it, and it will disappear. Now, look at the chimes in the window. Click on the second chime to the right, and hold it down. The chime will turn into the key, which opens the door.

Click on the parcel behind the door, then click on it again and figure out the title yourself by playing a game of hangman.

You must guess which letters fill the gaps before revealing that the title of the new book will be Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

You probably got a pirated copy. But even if you get a copy from JKR herself, the Harry Potter movies are crap.

the story on its own makes a screen production a daunting task
