Harry Potter coverage
Review: Harry Potter comes to magical end
So this is how a world ends; not with a whimper but a grand and glorious bang.
Harry Potter casts record spell with $44.8 million at the box office
The boy wizard still has a magic touch at the box office.
'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix'
The movie version of the fifth Harry Potter novel may well be the most prosaic so far. This, at the outset, doesn't sound at all like the best thing one can say about any movie. And it is not to say that "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" doesn't provide you with as much spectacle and visual thrills as the four Potter movies before it.
Potter's the wizard of the Web
Harry Potter is a natural for the Internet -- he's constantly evolving, he's certainly cosmic, and at times, his whole existence is something of a mystery.
Harry's American accent
New British prime minister Gordon Brown has called J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter opus his nation's "greatest export."
Harry's scar gets face time
"That," said Dumbledore the wizard to Harry Potter, the boy with the lightning-bolt mark on his forehead, "is no ordinary scar."
Rowling offers hints about final Harry Potter book
In her six previous Harry Potter novels, author J.K. Rowling has conjured up some real toe-curlers: an evil wizard who takes up residence on the back of turbaned underlings' heads, cloaked figures drinking unicorn blood and robed dementors who extract their victims' happy memories like soul-sucking Electroluxes.
A crash course in everything Harry Potter
In which Harry Potter book was Harry attacked by a King Kong-sized snake? When was Professor Lupin, a werewolf, the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry? What did the prophecy about Harry and Voldemort say?
How do you think Harry Potter will end?
One thing we know for sure -- the Harry Potter saga will finally be resolved at the stroke of midnight as July 21 dawns. That's when bookstores will begin handing out reserved copies of J.K. Rowling's seventh and final book of the series, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," like so many Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans.
