| | |  RUMOR: Deathly Hallows is 700 pages?
German online bookstore weltbild.de lists Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows as having 700 pages and claims the information came from Bloomsbury’s branch office in Berlin.
The page count for Deathly Hallows is unconfirmed at this time. Quote:
This listing is for the English version of the book to be printed by Bloomsbury in Germany, which would assumedly have the same page count as the British version.
At 700 pages, this would make Deathly Hallows almost 100 pages longer than the previous book, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, which was 607 pages in the UK, but not the longest Harry Potter book, which is Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, at 766 pages in the UK edition.

Not long enough at all. I guess it's just me not wanting the series to end. I wouldn't mind a 2,000 page book at all! haha!

lets hope it's more, if it's only 700 pages, it'll be gone in a few days, and we'll all miss harry potter...
i hope it'll be 7000 pages long!!! so it'll last FOREVER AND EVER... okay not exactly.. but im going to read it so fast, my eyes will go blur and i'll have sleepless nights trying to read it finish... then i'll keep rereading like i do with the fifth and sixth...

Seventh Year |  700's an interesting number....
700 pages.... I can't say that I'm pleased with that. I would rather have a perpetual book.Well, according to Jo on her webpage in the rubbish bin, she says, "Oh pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease. I haven't written 750 pages of book 7, and if I had I'd be very worried, as I'm not close to finishing it yet." So that might mean it's either longer or shorter. (though I do hope its longer) Alas, my 8 years of Harry Potter fanhood have to say goodbye to Harry  . I'll continue to be a happy Harry Potter fan as long as he doesn't die. If he does, then THAT'S JUST MEAN JO!!! Finishing the series is one thing, but killing him is just plain mean!!!

I hope it never ends personally. lol But I like large books as long as they down ramble on too much. I like a bit of over description.

Well, 700 would be longer than HBP.
HBP had a Page Count of 652 (U.S. edition) with OoTO being the longest at 870 pages (U.S. edition). The German translation of OoTP is 300 pages LONGER than the English version.
So if this is accurate then the US version of DH looks to be pretty short at around 500 pages??????
A 500 page book would be longer than PoA (U.S. edition 448 pages). But I was hoping for something slightly longer. I guess we have to wait and see.
There is only 126 days to go until DH comes out in the U.S.

That is a lot of pages, that is for sure, although I would hope for my own greedy need that it would be more. The German Publisher for JK Rowling is Carlsen Verlag GmbH, although Bloomsburg does have an office in Berlin, they are not listed as the German publisher. We will see though I guess.

=0 700 would be neat; or 777!
The longer, the better, really.
But I think it would be extremely difficult to get an exact number of pages..
