| | Bloomsbury to release new 3-book box set tied into the Harry Potter series
Reuters reported today that Harry Potter UK publishers Bloomsbury will release a new three-book box set later this year as part of their marketing plan to boost higher sales. It is unknown if the three books will brand-new and never released, as J.K. Rowling has yet to announce any future publications on the series, or a repackaging of her previous Harry Potter supplementary titles, including Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Quidditch Through the Ages, and The Tales of Beedle the Bard. Quote:
Bloomsbury, the publisher of the "Harry Potter" series by author JK Rowling, also said it was counting on a new Rowling three-book box set tied into the Potter series, and a non-fiction account of spies in World War II to support sales in the coming year.

I'd love to think they were new books by JKR but honestly, if they aren't those books she did for charity it will be books by other people about the Harry Potter series ... it would be nice if Jo did new HP books even if they weren't stories ... like that encyclopedia ... *ahem* but I seriously think she's done with HP now, otherwise she wouldn't have written her new novel. I think she's moved on ... ;__ ;

I would move mountains if she did a small series on the marauders.

Huh. I bet it's just the set of QTA, FB, and BB. She's been busy with her new book and Pottermore. But I hope it's new content!

Honestly if they aren't releasing any NEW books its beyond greedy to keep repacking the same books just to get more money.....seriously.....you've made billions off of us with the HP series. Move on already........

Move on already........ I quite agree with you. Please come out with NEWER books! Selling the same books with just different covers on them won't get the sales. |

JKR hasn't announced any news on HP, other than the little additions on Pottermore, so most probably it will be the textbooks.

I REALLY hope it's something new!!! What would be the point in repackaging old ones that we already have?

I wonder as well. It's JK Rowling's idea what she wants to do with HP.
