The seven Harry Potter novels are to be sold as e-books for the first time in October. Author J.K Rowling announced(宣布)the series would also be available as audio books through a new website, Pottermore.

The website will also feature(使。。。有特*)new material which Rowling says she has been collecting for years. “ This is such a great way to give something back to the fans who made Harry Potter such a huge success”, the author said.

The Harry Potter novels have sold more than 450 million copies through Bloomsbury in Britain, and Scholastic in the United States. However, the e-books , which will be available in several languages, will be published through Rowling’s Pottermore Publishing, rather than her print publishers which do not own the digital rights(数字版权)。

Pottermore went live on 31 July, Harry Potter’s birthday. Rowling told the BBC that the new material was being released(发布)online, rather than in a new book, because she did not have “a new story”. “Most of this writing is material I generated(创作)while I was writing the books earlier,” she said. “ It’ s a background, and lots of details. Some of it is new stuff in reply to things fans have asked me over the years.”

The site, which Rowling said she had been working on for two years, promises to immerse(使沉浸于)users in the boy wizard’s world, offering opportunities for computer gaming, social networking(网络)to all users from October.

Rowling told reporters at the London Pottermore launch she had an intention of writing an eighth Harry Potter book.
