Steven Vander Ark's new novel, In Search of Harry Potter, a book about the different locations in Great Britian used in the Harry Potter series, has been approved for publishing by J.K. Rowling's lawyers. This coming after the recent trial banning a book co-written by Vander Ark that was ruled as copyright infringement.

Upon careful examination of the book, J.K. Rowling's lawyers have agreed that it can be published, barring that a few changes are made to the cover.

Nice. Well, I'm proud of Steve - he has taken the whole thing very well and has managed to rise up and make a new book!

Well its good that the whole drama with him wanting to publish the Lexicon is behind everybody; overall it just didn't make any of them look very good. The only reason I wouldn't buy the book is just because it doesnt sound that interesting to me in general; it feels like a bit of a stretch to be an interesting book topic.

Interesting...I agree...even though they have settled their differences...I probably won't buy the book. Now if I were given it as a gift I would probably read it. But I won't be putting it on my Christmas list.

Ha, i still don't trust him... he is still clearly just trying to cash in on Harry Potter fans... by using JK's work. Obviously, he can't produce his own, so he has to plagarise from her. I for one will NOT by his book.
