JKR Edinburgh Book Launch

Jo Rowling recently updated the news section on her official site giving us some insight into her plans for the release of the sixth book. She will be attending a special launch at Edinburgh Castle and on the stroke of midnight, on the 16th, will be reading from Half-Blood Prince.

Competitions will be ran by newspapers from Britain, Ireland, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and Canada with the lucky winners being sent to the event as a reporter. Each reporter will be given the weekend to read HBP in a specially created "Reading Room" and they will later get to put their questions to Jo at the Harry Potter Children's Press Conference. The event will be broadcast on TV and radio stations around the world.

If you live in any of the stated countries, and are in the age range of 8-16 (unless stated otherwise), you can find information below on how to enter any of the competitions:

USA | Australia | South Africa | Ireland | UK | Canada | New Zealand
