There is another new interview with HBP Video Game producer Jonathan Bunney. There are no spoilers in the interview but it alludes to the ending of Half-Blood Prince.

EA can’t actually talk about the ending. “I can’t, under our Warner Bros. embargo, talk about the ending,” laughed ‘Harry Potter’ executive producer Jonathan Bunney told me while he was showing me the game at a publisher event a couple of weeks ago. “But I can tell you that you will not be…interacting…

Will you take your Wiimote and… “Whatever you’re alluding to, you won’t be doing that. [laughs],” said Bunney. “Obviously, it’s a massive” I was so shocked when I read it. I put the book down and said, “That’s crazy! You can’t have done this. We’re dealing with it very sensitively because it’s a big deal, right? Obviously, we’re making a game that kids are going to be playing, as well.”

 Melissa Anelli. from The Leaky Cauldron has written a new book called A History: The True Story of a Boy Wizard, His Fans, and Life Inside the Harry Potter Phenomenon. JK Rowling has written the forward for this book! The book comes out on November 4th and you can pre-order it HERE!  Here is a small excerpt from it:

    Not until sometime in 2002 did I finally crack, and do the thing that people assumed I did daily. I Googled Harry Potter.
     I knew, of course, that there were fan sites out there. My postbag was full of mentions of them, my readers assuming that I was au fait with what was happening online. My PA, Fiddy, had had contact with a few of the webmasters. But I was still utterly unprepared what I found during that first, mammoth trawling session.
     The fan sites were so professional-looking; easily up to the standard of any of my publishers’ sites. And they had tens of thousands of visitors. They had forums, message boards, editorials, rolling news, fan art, fan fiction, quotes of the day from my books… and the shipping wars… my God, the shipping wars…
