A Harry Potter fan has written a fake 250,000-word version of the next book and put it on the internet.
The spoof of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the most wildly anticipated release of the year, fooled fans.But publishers Bloomsbury insist the online version is bogus.A spokeswoman said: "We are aware of the internet version but it is not the real thing. People will have to wait until 21 July."
The fake has been posted on at least one Potter site.A literary expert said: "There are tens of thousands of words. It claims to be the real McCoy."
It has a happy ending, with Harry marrying his sweetheart Ginny Weasley.But author JK Rowling has hinted that her hero will die in the seventh and final Harry book.
An unprecedented security operation is in place to make sure it is not leaked. Only three people other than JK have read it – all top publishing bosses.Books will be delivered to shops in locked containers tied with steel chains.
For God's sake, people, IT'S A BOOK!!! Now don't get me wrong, I've read all the others and will read this one but I won't be in Tesco, dressed as a wizard at 12:01 on 21/07/07...probably because it's my Star Wars night and it is the 30th anniversary this year...anyway...I like the books; any books that get kids reading AND upset the more radical fundamentalist parts of the church are all right by me.
What do you think?
This'll really piss the church off.
