Harry Potter 7 To Be Released July 21, 2007

In case you haven't heard, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows now has a firm publishing date of July 21, 2007. Amazon.com and other booksellers have already been offering to reserve copies for eager readers.

With the new film of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix also due out this summer, get ready for the final double release frenzy this summer. The Potter phenomena has changed children's literature over the past ten years, giving fantasy a new lease on life and making a children's author (J. K. Rowling) a worldwide superstar. It's going to be hard to imagine going without a Harry book every two years, but perhaps Rowling has other books yet to write.
