British author, JK Rowling is not yet ready to end the Harry Potter saga and announced her intentions of making an eighth book that will stand as a sort of Harry Potter encyclopedia.
"I might do an eighth book for charity, a kind of encyclopedia of the world, so that I could use all the extra material that's not in the books," Rowling wrote on her website.
The 41-year-old author, who has already published two Potter reference books: 2001’s "Quidditch Through The Ages" and "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," said the money for the third possible reference book will also go to charity.
With the seventh and final Harry Potter book, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” scheduled to hit the bookstores on July 21st, eager fans have been trying to anticipate the book’s content, forcing the author to ask them not to spoil the story’s ending.
In response to an April 28 editorial by a leading Potter fan site, http://www.the-leaky-cauldron.org, which noted that it had been receiving "spoiler" e-mails, and expected many more, alleging advance knowledge of the book's contents, Rowling said:
"We're a little under three months away, now, and the first distant rumblings of the weirdness that usually precedes a Harry Potter publication can be heard on the horizon."
"I want the readers who have, in many instances, grown up with Harry, to embark on the last adventure they will share with him without knowing where they are they going."
