Bloomsbury publishing director Liz Calder said the next and final Harry Potter book is "likely" to be released in 2007... she hopes.
At the British Council's Creative Future
conference in India this week, Calder allegedly said as much in an interview with Indo-Asian News Service:
"One more 'Harry Potter' only but she (Rowling) said from the beginning that she would write seven. So she would not write another one after this. But Rowling would write other books for us," said Liz.
"The next 'Harry Potter' book is likely to come out in 2007. I hope so."
While Calder's comments are optimistic at best, she's one of only a handful of people other than Jo herself who could make such a weighty prediction.

Well, I think the theory behind the release would make most sense-
7 Horcruxes
7 Years at School
7 Books
In my opinion, the book should be released 7-7-07.

So she would not write another one after this. This just makes me believe even more that Harry is going to die at the end and I am so scared. I don;t want him to die!!!

Thats great, but i thought they had already said months ago that the 7th book is likely to be released in 2007 and that Jo won't be writing any more HP books but some other stuff instead.

I'm excited but also a little sad. How I will love holding the seventh book in my hand, but will I be able to bear it when I realize that I'll never count down the days for a release again?

Well, that pretty much ends the debate as to whther or not there will be an eigth book. Still, so sad though. However, "likely" to be the seventh in 2007 - I'm counting on it now that it has been announced.

Wohoo the final book is to be in the year of 2007 (a wait but totally worth it)! It is sad because there might never be a nother (speling is not my speciality) harry potter book. :'(

I'm still one of the ones who thinks 07/07/07 will be the release date. I can't help it! It just seems too perfect, and it sounds like Calder agrees. Whoot! Finally, some semi-possibly-could-happen confirmation!

I think that book 7 will come out just as they predicted...on 7/7/07. I can't see them releasing the book past that date, it's just too good of a marketing scam.

Pretty awesome... ttyl I can't wait to see what the final release date it... At least we know that it is at least a year away. But that is to be expected with such a monumental book in the series. I am sure that it will turn out to be one of the most awaited endings to a series in and for a very very long time. Can't wait.
