The Cursed Child to be the eighth Harry Potter 'book'...

10:48 am 28 October 2015

I just saw this in an email:

‘Harry Potter and the Cursed Child' is the official eighth Potter story and the first to be presented on stage.

It’s official. The Cursed Child is the eighth story in the Harry Potter series and we have the synopsis to share with you:

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.
