"The Eighth Story. Nineteen Years Later.

Based on an original new story by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany, a new play by Jack Thorne, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is the eighth story in the Harry Potter series and the first official Harry Potter story to be presented on stage. The play will receive its world premiere in London’s West End on July 30, 2016.

It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn’t much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband and father of three school-age children.

While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places."

this book is probably the WORST book i've every read. it takes the character but they change the personality COMPLEATLY i mean WHY?

that's not really true, the book is focusing on Albus Potter, not Harry Potter, so it doesn't change much of Harry's personality, but it is different from the other books in the series.

it does put a different light on Harry Potter and Hermione and Ron. Really the book is not good.

I love the book

I loved this story! At first I thought I wouldn't like it because it's in script form but it was really good! It would be better if it was a book though but really good!

There isa book of this not in script form. you just have to look for it.

Harry potter is a good book

I love this book. I like the part with the alternate world.

A bit strange but a good storyline.,

I just love this book it is set in 19 years time Voldemort dying and everyone is living happily when the youngest son of harry potter goes back in time with his best friend to save someone who got killed in the book the goblet of fire and to do that they try but everytime something goes wrong and they have to go and change it and they get tricked by a girl .

I Love all Harry Potter books, this is the one I recently read.

I really do not recommend this book. The way it just moved from year to year did not have the magic of the last books. Then again the whole book wasn't written by J.K Rowling ...

this book was written by J.K Rowling and 3 others, but I think it shares just as much of the book magic as the other books.

I can see why you don't like it but, the story wouldn't be the same if it was one year after, would it? What adventures would Harry have if the 7 adventures he had were all to kill Voldemort? Half of it would just be Harry getting praised, wouldn't it? And the reason it isn't by Rowling is because it's a script. Of the movie version. Saying you don't like this book is like saying you don't like the movies.

tbh, they should have left the series be. they didn't need this book, it doesn't change anything about the series.

I liked this book! It takes places 30 something years, after the battle of Hogwarts. Harry and his wife, Ginny have kids (James, Albus, and Lily) and they are at hogwarts.While the Potter kids get put in Gryffindor, Albus gets put in Slytherin. He is nothing like his dad, and is facing challenges of his ow. But when he finds out he can help restore someone, he is determined to help. This book will make you cry, and I loved the play. I give it 5 stars. Definitely a really good book. Just make sure you read the series first! Happy reading! -Bsc
