J.K. Rowling Brings Us "Pottermore"

By Larry Yepez Jr.

Thirteen years after the first Harry Potter book was published, J.K. Rowling brings us Pottermore, an interactive reading website. It's the same story from the books with a few crucial additions. Pottermore -just as the experience of reading- will require that the imagination of the author and reader work together to create the story, so Pottermore will be built in part by You, the reader.

According to J.K. Rowling, the digital generation will be able to enjoy a safe, unique online reading experience built around the Harry Potter books. Pottermore will be the place where fans of any age can share, participate and re-discover the stories. It will also be the exclusive place to purchase digital audio books and, for the first time, e-books of the Harry Potter series.

Rowling herself will also be an intricate part of the experience as she shares with us additional information she's been holding for years about the world of Harry Potter.

Pottermore is open to everyone starting October 2011, but a lucky few will be able to join early to help shape the experience in the Beta stages of the site..

Are you intrigued about Pottermore? What do you think of this new online reading experience for Harry Potter?
