Harry Potter is a wizard. He is in his second year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry. Little does he know that this year will be just as eventful as the last.. . The second in the Harry Potter series to be translated into Latin for the first time, this follows in the steps of other great childrens classics. The huge task of translating into Latin (most translations are done from Latin) has been undertaken by Peter Needham, who taught Latin at Eton for over 30 years. James Morwood, of Oxford University, has said of the translation of Harry Potter & the Philosophers Stone: The translation is great stuff. It is accurate & fluent, but it is much more than that. It has been carried off with wit, inventiveness, sensitivity & panache. I find it impossible to think of its being better done. ...

Shortlisted for the Waterstones Book of the Year 2016‘ Once again, the fantasy world that Rowling created nearly 20 years ago is at its most powerful when it sets aside magic & reveals the basic, brutal & human mechanics of love & grief… The thrill of a new Harry Potter book, even in script form, is its own kind of magic spell.’
- The Daily Telegraph ‘ It homes in on the magic we all have at our fingertips: the ability to make a difference to another person.’ – The Financial Times ‘ Pure enchantment’ – The Evening Standard ‘ Harry Potter’s new chapter will leave you spellbound.’ – The Times It’s impossible to underestimate the number of booksellers who joined our ranks by virtue of J.K. Rowling’s early spell, lending the ‘scriptbook’, as we discover it to be called, of Harry Potter’s return a deep significance. Our parties at midnight celebrating both the publication of the book & the premiere of the play encapsulated the adoration so many hold for this extraordinary universe, & the phenomenal sales that followed only proved the continuing power of Rowling’s vision. A full nineteen years has passed since the climactic finale of Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows. Voldemort is a shadow of the past; Harry Potter himself is now a burdened employee at the Ministry of Magic, the wizarding triumphs of his youth seemingly shelved for the demands of family life. Once again, the vaulting arches of Kings Cross become the gateway to wild adventure as young Albus Severus Potter – Harry’s now second son – boards a waiting Hogwarts Express, prepared to fulfil his own destinies. What lies ahead is as much about the past as it is the future; it will be a time of unexpected alliances & the extraordinary lure of potentially changing what has already come to be. Although much-loved comrades will indeed play their part – no Harry Potter tale can possibly be complete without the courage & companionship of Ron & Hermione – this is very much the next extraordinary chapter, a story where the son of the world’s most famous wizard finds both camaraderie & friendship in a most surprising place, the boy Scorpius Malfoy, son of Draco. In the pages of Harry Potter & the Cursed Child, one of the very great creations of children’s literature – the incredible world of Harry Potter – lives once again, the unmistakable & authentic voice of J.K. Rowling given sparkling form by writer Jack Thorne’s unmatched understanding of the series. As both companion to the play & as a standalone volume in its own right, the Official Script Book is the ultimate passport of return to the world’s most treasured fictional universe.
