If you've ever wondered what McGonagall was like before she became the firm but fair Transfiguration professor at Hogwarts (Was she ever in love? How did she form such a strong and trusting friendship with Dumbledore?) or reflected on what Remus Lupin's childhood might have been like - then From the Wizarding Archive (Volume 2) should go straight to the top of your must-read list. Containing 35 articles written by J.K. Rowling for the original Pottermore website, Harry PotterTM fans everywhere are in for a treat. If there's one thing Harry Potter fans have in common (apart from impeccably good taste), it's questions... so many questions. From the details that perplex us all - How does the Sorting Hat work, exactly? Was Dolores Umbridge always evil? - to the personal details that bring us closer to J.K. Rowling's writing process - from her least favourite school subject and its impact on Professor Snape's career, to the personal significance of King's Cross and why it's always where the Hogwarts Express departs - this is a veritable treasure trove of answers. With thematically curated chapters and editorial writing linking and exploring the articles in greater depth than ever before, this is essential reading for any Harry Potter afficionado. These articles were originally featured on pottermore.com and are still free, and available to read in English, on the official Wizarding World website. Note: This eBook is available as two separate volumes or as a combined edition. The articles in Volume 2 were previously published as three Pottermore Presents eBooks. If you already own those, you might prefer to read From the Wizarding Archive (Volume 1) instead. Pottermore Limited will be donating author royalties to the Lumos Foundation on behalf of J.K. Rowling, expected to be equivalent to a minimum of £1 (or the local currency equivalent) for each copy of From the Wizarding Archive sold. The Lumos Foundation is a registered charity in England and Wales with charity number 1112575.
