“Pottermore Presents” Trio of Short Stories

by Aimee Krenz · August 17, 2016

If you’ve already received your Hogwarts letter for the upcoming school year, you might not have noticed a few missing required items from your list! Better grab your quill and jot this down!

Announced today on Pottermore was a trio of e-books set to release on September 6, titled Pottermore Presents. With covers designed by graphic designer duo MinaLima, the short stories will offer readers both original and archived content from JK Rowling. Here’s an image from the e-books on Pottermore!

 


 

Pottermore Presents will include Short Stories from Hogwarts of Heroism, Hardship and Dangerous Hobbies; Short Stories from Hogwarts of Power, Political and Pesky Poltergeists; and Hogwarts: An Incomplete and Unreliable Guide.

From more details on the ghosts who roam the Hogwarts grounds to the intimidating and mysterious Azkaban prison, this collection of short stories is meant to provide fans of the Potter universe with even more information than ever before. Also included in the series will be original writings from Rowling on a few familiar faces – Minerva McGonagall and Horace Slughorn. You can read the full press release here:

Pottermore Presents Press Release
We are excited to announce the publication of Pottermore Presents, a series of eBook shorts featuring stories and J.K. Rowling’s first-person reflections about the wizarding world. The first three titles in the collection will be available to purchase from our Shop on 6 September.

Pottermore Presents is a collection of J.K. Rowling’s writing that was originally featured on pottermore.com as well new, never-before-published work. Each eBook short is about an hour long read. They are intended to supplement the Harry Potter series, giving readers the opportunity to delve deeper into the wizarding world.

The three titles available in the Pottermore Presents collection are:

· Short Stories from Hogwarts: Heroism, Hardship and Dangerous Hobbies. These stories profile two of the Harry Potter stories’ most courageous and iconic characters: Minerva McGonagall and Remus Lupin. It also offers never-before-published writing by J.K. Rowling about Professor McGonagall’s role in the second wizarding war.

· Hogwarts: An Incomplete and Unreliable Guide. Entries are focused on Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, a place of almost boundless mystery and magic. Readers will venture to the Hogwarts grounds, become better acquainted with its more permanent residents, discover its secrets, its hidden rooms and corridors… all at the turn of a page.

· Short Stories from Hogwarts: Power, Politics and Pesky Poltergeists. Featuring stories from pottermore.com with themes of temptation, power, mischief and villainy. They provide a glimpse into the darker side of the wizarding world with writing about characters like Dolores Umbridge, and Quirinus Quirrell, and first-time published work about Harry Potter’s portly Potions Master Horace Slughorn.

We hope that you and your audience will enjoy discovering more about the wizarding world.

Happy reading,

The Pottermore Team
