| | Deathly Hallows US paperback to release on July 7, 2009 Scholastic has announced that the US paperback edition of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be released July 7, 2009, ten days before the release of the sixth film, Half-Blood Prince. In a press release, the publishing company had this to say: Quote:
Fans of Harry Potter are keeping the magic alive online and in bookstores, schools, libraries and homes all across the country with fans re-reading the series and new fans starting at the beginning. There are anniversaries to celebrate, a new charity book in December from J.K. Rowling and now – the announcement from Scholastic that the paperback edition of J.K. Rowling’s bestselling and final Harry Potter novel, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, (ISBN 0-545-13970-8; price $14.99), will be released on July 7, 2009. With an initial print run of 2 million copies, this will bring the total number of the seven Harry Potter books in print to over 143 million in the U.S. alone. The paperback edition follows the record-breaking release of the hardcover edition which hit stores at 12:01 on July 21, 2007 and has sold 14 million copies since then, making it the fastest selling book in publishing history.
“We have another big year planned for Harry,” said Ellie Berger, President of Trade, Scholastic. “As we look toward the tenth anniversary of the U.S. publication of J.K. Rowling’s first Harry Potter novel, we are thrilled to continue to bring Harry Potter to fans of all ages in new and exciting ways.”
We will update with paperback pre-ordering information when it is made available. |

Wow two years I sometimes wait for books to be released as paperback, 'cause they're cheaper, you know? Imagine waiting that long

I would say, at this point, most have read the book.....the paperback is lighter, for traveling, but I never understood the point if you want to keep the book for always as a collector's item.

Considering the amount of hard-backs sold already, I'm surprised there's still someone to buy the paperbacks!
No wonder they let such a long time.

Almost two years since the original release... well, I guess they wanted to get as much money from the hard back as possible
