THE BOOKS

 

 

Book Five

 

-Book 5, originally due in November 2001 is now even further delayed until spring 2002.

*Harry will be 15 years old and in his fifth year.  But we knew this!

-Professor Lupin and other "old" characters come back!

-We will learn about Lily Potter.

-Hermione will be made a prefect.

-We will learn why Harry has to spend every summer with the Dursleys.

-called Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (announced by Barnes & Noble and JKR in an interview. But don't count to much on these titles, JKR seems to change them at the last minute. Whatever happened to Harry Potter and the Doomspell Tournament, which was rumored to be Book IV's title before it was released?)

-Does Lupin have a brother? There is a rumor that it is so, and his name is Romulus. This is from the myth of the twin brothers- Remus and Romulus- who were raised by a wolf (sound familiar?). This seems probable, because JKR chose all the character names for a reason. But in the end of the myth, Romulus kills Remus. I hope this doesn't happen in the books!

*JKR said books 4-7 would be "darker". Will someone else die? I hope not, but it's possible.

-Hagrid and Madame Maxime visit the giants to try to bring them to the "good" side.

-Hermione and Ron might go out.

- So how did James and Lily make their fortune? We will find out in a future book- it might be book 5.

-There might be a female Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.

*No, Harry will not become an Animagus. =( Oh, well, there's always Hermione!

*Why do some people become ghosts and others don't? Well, JKR admitted that the happiest people don't become ghosts, and we'll find out more in book 5!

*"In an intervew, JKR said Ginny will definitely be playing a bigger role in the 5th book."  -Empress Polgara

 

 

 

Book Six

 

*Harry will be sixteen and in his sixth year at Hogwarts. (Duh!)

-Harry and Ron fight with Voldemort while Hermione is in the hospital wing.

-The sixth (or seventh) book is called Harry Potter and the Green Flame Torch. This is rumored to be another magical item, like the Goblet of Fire and Sorting Hat, that heals good and kills evil. Interesting...

-Peter Pettigrew returns.

*JKR said books 4-7 would be "darker". Will someone else die? I hope not, but it's possible.

-Hermione and Ron might go out.

-Fleur Delacour might be teaching in Hogwarts. JKR said there would be a female DADA teacher in a future book- could it be Fleur?

-It is rumored that JKR said the color of Harry's eyes (green, from his mother) is very important in either book 6 or 7 (but more likely 7).


-Jonathan Diggory says "It is rumored that Peter Pettigrew (Wormtail) will finally forgive Harry for saving his life in Book 3 and will at the last second turn against Voldemort and fight with Harry."

 

 

Book Seven

 

*Lupin will be back again and play a big role.

-Harry and Draco will work together to stop and evil force.

-Snape... in LOVE??????? This could change him forever!

*One of the students will become a teacher at Hogwarts and it will not be Hermione, Harry, or Ron. Could it be... NEVILLE?!?!?! JKR said it's a possibility.

*The last word of the book will be 'scar' (but this may change as JKR is writing!)

*A BIG secret is revealed about Lily Potter.

-Hermione might become Head Girl.

-The seventh (or sixth) book is called Harry Potter and the Green Flame Torch. This is rumored to be another magical item, like the Goblet of Fire and Sorting Hat, that heals good and kills evil. Interesting...

*JKR said books 4-7 would be "darker". Will someone else die? I hope not, but it's possible.

*Book 7 will be long, like Book 4, because JKR says a lot has to happen.

-Hermione and Ron might go out.

-Fleur Delacour might be teaching in Hogwarts. JKR said there would be a female DADA teacher in a future book- could it be Fleur?

-The last chapter might be in Gringotts.

-It is rumored that JKR said the color of Harry's eyes (green, from his mother) is very important in either book 6 or 7 (but more likely 7).

-Empress Polgara says "I heard that Harry is not going to marry Cho, but that could be just a rumor."

 

 

 

Miscellaneous

*James Potter inherited a fortune & his invisibility cloak.

-The animal an Animagus turns into depends on his/her personality.

*Hermione's b-day is Sept. 19. And yes, Harry gives presents.

*Snape is the name of a British town!!!

*How is it determined who is accepted into Hogwarts and gets a letter? JKR said that there is a magical quill in Hogwarts [is it like Rita Skeeter's Quick-Quotes Quill?] that senses each time a magical child (wizard or muggle with magic) is born. It records the child's name in a large book, and every year, the children who are turning eleven receive an owl with the letter from Professor McGonagall.

 

*So who is the Ravenclaw ghost? JKR said we met her before, in the entrance hall in book 1 (but she wasn't mentioned by name).  She is called "the Gray Lady".


*Fleur Delacour means "flower of the court" (in French); like a noble woman.

*JKR published two short stories that are available in now- "Quidditch Through the Ages" and "Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them".


*Do you miss them? In the future we will remeet many of the characters from previous books (Lupin, Mr. Weasley's flying car, Aragog the spider, Sirius, Dobby, the Dementors and more!)


-Wizards of the Coast- the makers of Pokemon- is supposedly making a Harry Potter card game. It is rumored to be like a wizard duel.


-There might be a future Playstation game of Harry Potter- and his adventures at Hogwarts. There might be a separate quidditch game.

 

 

Speculations

What do you think will happen?

-In the opinion of this webmistress, this should be considered a spoiler.  Several months ago, I figured this out, on my own.  Why did Voldemort target the Potters and not immediately kill Lily?  It had been bugging me since I read Book 1.  Any way, now I'm putting the word out.  I am 99.9% sure that in a future book Harry will discover that he is the descendant of Gordic Gryffindor.  Look at the evidence!  Voldemort wants the James and now Harry Potter dead because they both carry Gryffindor's blood in their veins, Lily does not.  As descendant of Slytherin, Voldemort wants to fulfill his ancestor's want to get revenge on Gryffindor.  Plus, Lily and James lived in GODRIC'S Hollow and Harry pulled Gryffindor's sword out of the Sorting Hat.  Perhaps James's fortune and invisiblity cloak were passed down through the ages, maybe they were even from Godric.  And there's more!!!!  As the Harry Potter Page pointed out, Red and Gold (Gryffindor's colors) sparks shot out of Harry's wand when he first tried it out in Ollivanders.  And Harry was born on July 31, until the zodiac of Leo the Lion (Gryffindor's mascot).  What can I say?  Dumbledore refused to tell Harry this because he thought it might make him stuck-up and thinking he was all powerful becasue of his blood.  No one left alive knows of Harry's ancestor but Dumbledore and Voldemort.  I'm sure it fits and will probably become a spoiler.
