I bet it comes out there before it comes out in the U.S. Because I remember when book five was released, I was in Australia with the high school band and some students bought it and had finished it in like two days and were bragging about how they got to enjoy it before their U.S. friends at home.

If you buy the foreign edition, you'll have to settle for the not-as-good cover art though. The U.S. cover art is the best.

I may just have to go ahead and get both. I like the books enough that I wouldn't mind having two copies.

I really look forward to it...the first 5 Harry Potter books make up probably my favourite book series of all time.

I agree. They are just so insanely fun and addictive. I got the third Harry Potter DVD for christmas (my favorite of the three movies, although I have all three so far), and it has made me want to read all five books again! It's amazing.

The only series I have ever read that I consider to be just as good as the Potter series is the Ender series.

The first three chapters of Shadow of the Giant. FYI. Just posted a couple of days ago.

Sweet. I thought he had like given up on it or something, because I have been waiting FOREVER for this book. I read the entire shadow series my freshman year, and I'm a junior now.

But now I know it's coming out March 2005...mmmm....I can't wait. In the mean time I have to reread the first three shadow books because I forgot a lot of stuff.

He said he wanted to see how everything in the middle east played out first. At least get a good idea how it would work out.

Either he's satisfied with what's happened or decided it would take to long for everything to finish.
