| | |  Russian Deathly Hallows translation released
On October 13th, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was officially released in Russian. Their translation of the book, Гарри Поттер и Дары Смерти, was released by Rosman Publishing, who printed over 1.8 million copies - and they plan to do more!
You can see pictures of a few different release parties in our gallery here & here.
As a pretty interesting side note ... Did you know that the Russian language lacks an 'h' sound? That means, in Russia, Harry Potter is pronounced "Garry" Potter!
Enjoy your new Garry Potter novel, Russian fans!

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |
