don't know if anyone still checks this forum but in case no one knows, jk rowling is bringing out a new hp book on december 4th. its the fables that book 7 is based. I think for the moment you can only get the book from amazon but i'm not sure.
Basically it's just the stories in the children's book they get in Book 7. It says in it that they're translated from the original runes by Hermione Granger. And after each story is Dumbledore's opinions on each story, which gives you some background info about each story, etc. It says that Dumbledore's parts were written 18 months before he died. And that it's easy to tell that he knows more than he says really..
It's very cute. And Dumbledore's parts give you lots of interesting insight to some Hogwarts stuff.
I got it for Christmas and I finally finished it, I've been busy. I liked it, it was interesting to get an insight in on the wizarding world.
I like how in the last story Dumbledore just keeps going on and on about the Elder Wand. Dumbles and his sillyness.
I completley agree with Bloodraine. I'm suffering from a Remus Lupin/Severus Snape withdrawel. I fear the effects may be permanet and I am full blown and geared up to stalk and/or harass Ms Rowling for further post Trio information.
