pipz, just got this news....the last installment for the Harry Potter series---Harry POtter and the Deathly Hallows is set to be released on June 21, 2007!
From: Mugglenet.com
JKRowling.com was updated today with newsthat Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be released on Saturday, July 21st, 2007, one week after the fifth movie hits theaters.
Scholastic has followed with a press release in which Lisa Holton, President of Scholastic Children's Books said, "We are thrilled to announce the publication date of the seventh installment in this remarkable series. We join J.K. Rowling's millions of readers - young and old, veterans and newcomers - in anticipating what lies ahead."
The hardcover will sell for $34.99 with the deluxe edition fetching $65.00. These high prices could mean the book will be longer than any of the previous six.
guys, mukhang mas mahal ang installment na to...tsk...can't wait. Guess I have to start being thrifty...
Does this mean I should go buy my boxed set now that the series is complete? Waah.. Better start saving more soon!! I wonder if it's a worldwide release again and how much the book would cost this time? How much would a boxed set cost?
[edit: merged my post with Megara's. nag post na pala sya pero nasa Moving Pictures. Moved the thread here to Written Word. ]
Hopefully, National Bookstore will hold it by March. My money is coming by that month. I want to surprise my sister with that, pero I think she knows about my plan so...meh.
megara: no worries! excited din ako e. :D forgot to delete my double post nga :D
biblitopia (the one in libis?) is accepting reservations na.. pero no definite price yet dito sa pinas at kung anong version ang lalabas dito sa atin.. hmm.. really want to buy but i think i'll just wait for a complete 7-book boxed set.. hehe.. :D
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! Mr. L, WHY?! lol
Change of plans. Tita from States pre-orders my copy. Sends it here for free (meaning I will not be covering the charges), along with birthday gift(s). Happily ever after.
Hmm, speaking of which, magkakarun din kaya ng character guide book ang Harry Potter pagkatapos ng 7th installment (the last installment)?
@ Mr. L
Wish it was true. XD
Siguro pag ganun kamahal ung HP 7 in dollars aabutin siguro un ng mga P 1,500.00 o pataas pa (deluxe edition). Well, there's another way to get to read it...humiram na lang kayo sa merun nito.
Though it is kinda funny.. :p But still, just shows how little you know of HP.. Rowling has confirmed over and over again that sirius and dumbledore are really absolutely dead. :p there goes your story.. gusto mo ata gumawa ng doujinshi e.. or illustrated slash-fiction ng HP? hmm.. not a bad idea.. :p
Swerte mo naman Mello.. I wish I was that lucky :D
Kai: sadness naman.. sobrang premium item na kasi e,, wonder how much the boxed set would cost. :S
Lorie: I saw some at FullyBooked Rockwell, Cubao and Greenhills... and Powerbooks ata..
Essedel: Probably.. since Rowling said she won't be producing any other HP book (prequel or otherwise) so this is what she plans to release instead.. (or maybe assign someone to release it) but who knows.. maybe she'll change her mind..
Seriously, I think Rowling should watch Stranger Than Fiction. I'm sure she can sooo relate.. :D
I agree with Frag. When HP book 6 was released the price was like super oa. Tapos, bagsak presyo, you could get the hardbound copy @ 900 or less? Anyway, may deluxe edition na book 6 na nilabas, $65 ata.
Hay.
Pareserve na din kaya ako? :)

para kasing hindi nasusunod yung reservation scheme e. ...baka sa kin lang yun.
lei: ganito lang yan. do you want to read the last book kaagad? kung hindi, you can wait for that 7 book collectors edition.

Yes. That Book 6! I remember my sister asking for an extra thousand for her "project". Kasama na pala sa college curriculum si Harry Potter.
7-Book set? Ber-months pa siguro release, Miss Lei.

Uh, tinamaan ako doon. hehehe, pero yung 900 lang naman yung book ko.
Yung complete set matagal pa siguro yun.. mga next year siguro, para mapiga pa nang husto ang mga HP fanatics.

Pero it's 100% sure that a complete book set release will mean more money for Miss Rowling. And it will have special-this, and special-that in the package. I will have to restrain my sister when that time comes.

Hehe. A very special project will pop up by then
