Hi all..

Here is the latest scoop!

  Bloomsbury Publishing is set to make a landmark announcement that the =
eagerly-awaited fifth installment of the blockbuster Harry Potter =
series, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, will be on =
bookshelves by the end of May, 2002.=20
  "We didn't want to reveal that it was in editing," explained Stuart =
Brentwood, an editor at Bloomsbury, when asked why the public had been =
given no previous notification that the book was complete, "because, =
quite frankly, we didn't want schoolchildren beating down our doors. =
We'll give a definite date at tomorrow's press conference."=20

  Brentwood refused to answer questions about the content of the novel. =
"We've all read it, and it's utterly fantastic," he enthused. =
"Especially the part where Harry joins up with Volde-oops, I shouldn't =
have said that."=20

  Stuart went on to stress that though the book is the most highly =
anticipated tome of the century, expectant readers shouldn't get too =
excited. "Here in England, April Fool's Day ends at noon," he said. "But =
in America it goes all day long. It's still going in some parts of the =
world. And I'd be wary of anything I heard today."=20

  Cheers,



  Carolyn
