Associated Press reports:

This image is provided by Waterstone’s. “It shows an excerpt from a prequel to Harry Potter written by JK Rowling which is to be auctioned for charity The story, which is shrouded in secrecy, was penned in the past month and is just 800 words long. Her Potter prequel comes almost a year after the last book in the boy-wizard series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, hit the shelves. The latest tale will not be published but sold at a charity auction at Waterstone’s flagship store in central London on June 10.”

What an awesome thing to be able to read and own!  What would you pay for it?

    If it’s as disappointing as the end of the last book, the buyer will be very upset.

    I think J. K. Rowling wrote the 800 words as a charity gesture. She doesn’t plan to write a prequel.

    Besides, I rather liked the end of Happy Potter Deathly Hollows — ingenious.
