Helpline for fearful fans of Harry Potter
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2007/02/02/npotter02.xml
Waterstone's is looking to set up a helpline for fans of Harry Potter because two important characters in JK Rowling's saga will die in the last instalment to be published this summer.
The book chain forecast that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows would become not only the best-selling Harry Potter title but the biggest selling book in history. But that may not bring unalloyed happiness to the nation because of Rowling's warning about the deaths.
Debbie Williams, of Waterstone's, said yesterday: "This could be a similar moment to when Take That split up — there could be a lot of upset teenagers out there. We are looking to set up a helpline for them."
The seventh book in the wizard series will be published at midnight on July 21. Bloomsbury, the publisher, said Rowling had delivered her final manuscript "recently".
How sad. . .
