Post First paragraph of Deathly Hallows!

In a trailer for the ITV1 documentary, A Year in the Life... J K Rowling, there is a shot of the finished Deathly Hallows manuscript from October 2006. The Guardian newspaper have printed what can be seen, namely what appears to be the opening paragraph.

SPOILER!!: Chapter 1

The Dark Lord Ascending

The two men appeared out of nowhere, a few yards apart in the narrow, moonlit lane. For a second they stood quite still, wands pointing at each other's chests: then, recognising each other, they stowed their wands beneath their cloaks and set off, side by side, in the same direction.

"News?", asked the taller of the two.

"The best," replied Snape.

Well, it makes sense. JKR said that DH is really part two of HBP. so I expected it to pick up pretty much where HBP left off.

I can't believe the end will be here in only 4 days!!!! I don't think I've ever been this excited about a book before!

Well, gosh darn it...

I've miscalculated my reading

I usually re-read the whole series just in time for the new book to come out as I finish the one before it (a reminder read).

This time I re-read the lot and finished a month early, so I thought, "OK, another read through, just in time for book 7".

But alas, No. Darn Life, it got in the way. I'm only 3/4 through OoTP!

It's gonna REALLY bug me if I don't get through HBP before I start DH. And I have a REALLY busy next few days, I can't sit here and read through...

Aaaaargh.

Do I go buy DH and then read HBP madly till it's finished and THEN start DH? Or do I start DH as soon as it hits my hands and hope that I remember all the nuances of HBP (as it's been a month since I re-read it and I've read all the others again in the meantime).

Oh the quandry.

PS: Thanks for posting the first paragraph, any chance you can post the whole first chapter? *jk*
