'Order of the Phoenix' Finished Says J.K. Rowling

Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling has uttered the words every fan of her books has been waiting for - the fifth part of the magical saga is finished. The pregnant writer has revealed that the new book, Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix, is longer than the fourth tome, Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire, by one chapter. She says, "At the moment it's 38 chapters. I'm really pleased with it. I'm just going to tweak it a tiny bit more, then the publishers will have it." The eagerly-awaited book will be out in shops within five months while the second film adaptation, Harry Potter And The Chamber Of Secrets, will hit cinemas on November 15.

'Bout time it's done. I still haven't read the fourth book, though (which is long as well) and this one's even longer!

Great News! The wait has been too long for book 5, but I am sure Rowling has written the best novel yet with all the time she has had to write this one. I cannot wait.

I changed the title of this thread because it was misleading. The fifth book is not quite finished yet, Rowling is still putting on the final touches. I am sure there will be a big press conference when she has turned it over to the publishing house and the editors are done with it.

Cool,
IMO the Harry Potter books get better as they go along, I just loved the size, scope and plot of Goblet of Fire and the news that the new one is just as big is great!

I'm sure it will be amazing, lets just hope it isn't nearly 3 years before the 6th book is released after this :p

The only trouble is that with a new book you want to read it, but after you have it's ages till the next one so you want to make it last as well. Luckily with the Harry Potter books you can constantly go back and re-read them and enjoy them just as much.
