So, after all seven books are out, the rest of the movies to follow, what do you guys think would be J.K.Rowling's next novel? After making a very successful series as Harry Potter, do you think she can still conjure some more magical books as successful as the Potter series?

I think see would start writing a different novel which would again be a bestseller. But, I am too much glued to Harry Potter that I want more of his books to be written by Rowling. May be, just a few more books representing his life as young man & then becoming headmaster in old age & so on, but I don't think she should stop writing about Harry Potter.

Yeah... I was thinking she could write a pre-requel to the Harry Potter series.. Perhaps a couple of books about the story of his parents and Voldemort, How everything began.. Kinda like Star Wars, retelling Dath Vader's origins, or The Lord of the Rings' The Hobbit, telling the story of Frodo's uncle and how he came about the ring of power... That would be a best-seller, don't you think?

Ya, you are right she should think of doing so. But, one question. What did you tell about the Hobbit telling the story of how his uncle found the ring? Is it in book or in film. I have seen all the parts of Lord of the Rings, so is this only a book? Please reply as I would like to read such book. Thanks!!!

Yup. It's another novel by Tolkien.. The Hobbit tells the story of Bilbo Baggins. If you want to read the fuu story of Middle Earth, then try looking for the book "The Simarillion" Also by Tolkien.. It would be a profitable move indeed by Rowling to make a pre-requel to the Harry Potter series, as audiences and fans of the Harry Potter series would love to see the early days of Hogwarts and more of the History of the characters like Snape and the other professors...

In a documentary she filmed, she stated she was working on a 'Political Fairytale' aimed at a younger audience than that of Harry Potter. That'll probably be her next release after 'Tales of Beedle the Bard' this december.
