A bit of Harry Potter news... (don't read if you don't want to know a thing about book seven)!!
Yesterday after we came back from watching Spain's team debacle, mr. ginger checked the news online and pointed me to
this news (sorry is in Spanish, but I do think there is an English version of it in Yahoo! News for what I've read)... where it says that JK Rowling could kill Harry in her next book.
All the info is from an interview she did with Channel 4, I think.
She says the following: 'A character will remain alive, but I have to say that two other will die, although at the beginning I hadn't though about killing them'...
She was asked about if those two characters were the most loved by fans and she answered: 'there is a price that has to be paid. We're dealing with truly evil here and they don't go after supporting characters, they go for the main ones'.
She refused (obviously) to give more information about those two characters she'll kill in the seventh book. 'I don't want to compromise myself and I don't want to receive more hate email or some other things'.
And she added, 'I wasn't never tempted to kill Harry before the end of book seventh, since from the beginning I thought about writing seven books'.
Okay...
First of all... I hate this kind of interviews, I mean, they take some surprise out of the book... I know I could just not read them... but come on, an interview with JK Rowlings and you expect people to skip it??
I don't think she should give such details because it's kind of cruel... Imagine, seven books to read at the end that Harry and Ron, or Harry and Hermione die... wtf! (sorry for the language)
And probably the thing that annoys me the most is this: '...two other will die, although at the beginning I hadn't though about killing them'. That is information she should have kept to herself!
There is still ages until we get to read the book and this kind of leaked info is just kind of cruel... *sigh*
In another news HP related too, Michael Gambon (Dumbledore)...
