Harry Potter and the Mathematics of Doom

Indeed, if it is released at Christmas at a time of maximum postage, then its potential to kill postmen in the cause of delivering it could reach levels of catastrophe never before witnessed. As they will be reduced to carrying not the current maximum of 16 copies per bag for book 5, but instead only 4 per bag, or less. Households will no longer have a use for tables, as the 3084 pages of "Harry Potter Seven and the Revenge of the Postmen" will serve as not only the final chapter in a literary tour de force, but equally effectively as a new piece of household furniture. We can but hope.

Incidentally, whatever age you are I implore you to get the 'children's' edition of the books if you are in the UK. Think in colour. Think like a child. It will keep you young whatever age you happen to be. The adult edition has the same words but a boring cover. Check them out below. The cover of the only US edition is unfortunately also hopelessly dull (Sorry folks!)

Meanwhile, once past the cover, here's to enjoying a cracking good read.

Happy Pottering!

Have your say
 
Harry Potter is definitely the best series out there. The plot line is so complex and really makes you think. I actually didn't know that the first one was only 250 pages, I thought of it as longer. But by the seventh she has like 800 pages, amazing. I love these books and always will :)
