Harry Potter’s adventures are going digital - J.K. Rowling said the boy wizard’s adventures will be sold as e-books for the first time in October.
All seven novels will be available as audio books and e-books in multiple languages through a new website, Pottermore. Rowling also has written new Potter material for the interactive site.
The site immerses users in the boy wizard’s world, combining elements of computer game, social network and online store. Rowling said it includes “information I have been hoarding” about the books’ characters and settings.
