Ah, the Half-Blood Prince

December 21, 2004 in Books by matt | No comments

So it seems that the next Harry Potter book will be released July 16th. You can already pre-order it on Amazon (currently sitting at #51) for $19.99. The title? Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. I’m sure it’ll be the highest-selling one yet. I’ve heard that booksellers bemoaned the fact that there wasn’t a Harry Potter release this year. It’s interesting that they’ve become so dependent on the high-selling books. It’s also sad that the industry is so blockbuster-driven. Dan Brown has a new book out early next year and I’m sure the publishers are licking their lips in anticipation.

That said, I’m sure that I’ll be one of the first to buy the new book come July.
