Given the immense popularity of the Harry Potter book series, as well as evolving technology since its publication, it was inevitable that the seven books in the series would get converted into multiple formats to increase their accessibility to readers of all types. With the growing popularity of e-books made accessible through e-readers and tablets, the entire series was converted into e-book format in 2012 exclusively through Pottermore, making it that more convenient to carry around the entire Potter series on a single device.
The Harry Potter series and other companion books have been translated into many languages of e-books. The newest advancement in Potter-related e-books came in the form of the Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone: Illustrated Kindle in Motion edition, with animations and videos integrated throughout the pages.
On March 27, 2012, the Harry Potter books were released for the first time in e-book format, exclusively available on Pottermore. Originally released in English (in both the UK and the US), the e-book editions are now available in 23 different languages.
On November 19, 2012, J.K. Rowling announced that all proceeds from the e-book sales of The Tales of Beedle the Bard would benefit her charity, Lumos. On March 15, 2013, in honor of Comic Relief's Red Nose Day, J.K. Rowling released Quidditch Through the Ages and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them in e-book format on Pottermore, with 40% of the proceeds benefiting the charity.
Enhanced Editions
On October 8, 2015, in collaboration with Apple and Pottermore, J.K. Rowling released all seven Harry Potter novels as iBooks from Apple’s iBooks Store. Annotations from Rowling herself have been added to these editions, suitably marked with quill icons. These newest editions also include the Kindle in Motion feature. Illustrations and animations fill the pages, making it a brand-new visual experience altogether. New fonts and customized, redesigned covers are also additions that make this release unique. Each novel, the script of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, and several companion books are available on the iBooks Store and can be purchased from nearly 50 countries in many different languages.
