In the holidays I read "Harry Potter and the deathly hallows", I thought it was quite good as there were lots of twists. Lord voldemort is back, terrorising and destroying people who are not "pure blood" (such as hermione granger). Harry is the only wizard in the world who can defeat Lord voldemort and vice versa. This conflict between each other has carried on through out the 7 books and has been the key feature of the storyline. Harry, Ron and Hermione go on a journey to destroy Lord Voldemorts horcrux's which is neccisary to defeat Lord Voldemort himself. The three friends must destroy objects of dark magic, theese objects are guarded heavily and dangerous obsticles worse than death stand in the way. On top of that Lord Voldemorts followers are forever trying to capture harry and appear every time "Voldemort" is mentioned.
The series "Harry Potter" is famous worldwide. Millions and millions of people of all ages have read through the series to finally discover if harry defeats Lord Voldemort. Harry Potter is appealing to all ages and therefore will sell many novels, I think that the fact that it is the last book of the series will sell more books. I think on the news when the book first came out that 15 books sell every second worldwide. People sleep in line outside bookshops because they are so desperate to find out what happens in the end. Let alone the scandal where someone stole the book and took pictures of all 600 pages and posted them on the internet, this shows that the book was well sought after.
As I mentiond above, this book is the last of an incredible series written by J.K Rowling. Rowling is wealthier than the queen of england through 7 books which shows the intrest by the world.
