| | | This entire story has been revised by Dumbledore.
A while ago, Bulgarian website Novinite posted news about the book 6 title, and added that it was "due to appear within 4-5 months". Quote: Harry Potter fans will be able to devour the next adventures of their favorite hero in their sixth book by JK Rowling due to appear within 4-5 months. This was PURE SPECULATION on their part and is in no way to be considered truth.
The facts are overwealmingly clear that Book 6 (HBP) is at least 7-9 months away. Maybe even longer.
Reasons we know this: 1. JKR has said she is barely finished with the FIRST DRAFT. 2. The title for book 5 (OotP) was announced over a year before it's release. 3. For OotP, JKR and her publishers announced that the book was finished 4 months before it was actually released. Since JKR is only finished with the first draft, there is no way she will finish the book and hand over the manuscripts within a few days.
Sorry to disappoint everybody but the fact is we shouldn't expect Book 6 before 2005. It is possible that she could complete the book within 3 or 4 months, which would make a Christmas release possible, but this is highly unlikely. My bet is April 2005 or later.
We assure you that we will post a closer time-frame for when to expect the release as soon as JKR announces that she is finished with the manuscript.
Thank you! Note: All comments up to Marcella Riddle's are based on thinking we announced that it was possible that Book 6 could be released in 4-5 months. It is NOT POSSIBLE, so I (Dumbledore) had to revise this entire story. Sorry about any confusion!  |

I don't really think it will come out so soon. It's barely a year since ootp was released. But anyway, it would be cool!

sighs sadly*
these kind of rumours only makes me sadder cuz i realize just how bloomin' far we are from any kind of actual announcements regarding the release.
JK'll probably laugh if this is suggested. if we get it in 4-5 months then im a crumple-horned snorkack
i reckon we have at least a year or so to go before we can have any idea at all

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

I hope this is true! Maybe it will take her a lot less time to write it because it is shorter than OotP, and she is not pregnant anymore.

4-5 months doesn't sound like it; i mean JKR hasn't even started giving out hints about book 6, except for the title, so i feel we'll have to wait maybe 7-8 months..

Well we can always hope, one thing i do think is that HBP will take considerably less time then OotP, just because the title has been announced already.

As much as I hope it is true, I actually doubt it, there has been no news on it just yet, and JKR i doubt is even quater of the way through it yet, I fail to see how she can do it in such short time.
But then, I do hope it is true, I would be really surprised, but I do hope it's true.

| yeah, i hope it's true but i don't think it is. someone probably figured that if they came up with this rumour that isn't true, jk rowling would come out say it's wrong and give the actual release date on her website.

I doubt that it is true... but I can wish and hope that it is! It seems like JK would have said something on her site! Just doesn't seem real... *le sigh* if it is true, I can't wait
