From the Wizarding Archive : Curated Writing from the World of Harry Potter


If you've ever wondered why Squibs are never offered a place at Hogwarts, what happened when Vernon Dursley first met James Potter, or how Dumbledore and McGonagall formed their lifelong friendship, From the Wizarding Archive should go straight to the top of your reading list. Containing 80 articles and anecdotes 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 simple details that perplex us all - was Professor Umbridge always that awful? Why don't wizards just use phones? - 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 editorial writing linking and exploring the articles in greater depth than ever before, plus an exclusive foreword by Evanna Lynch, 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 Harry Potter website.

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.

Metamorphosis - Audiobook


The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka is a haunting and thought-provoking novella that delves into themes of alienation, identity, and the human condition. The story begins with Gregor Samsa, a traveling salesman, waking up one morning to find himself transformed into a giant insect. This surreal event triggers a cascade of personal and familial upheavals as Gregor struggles to adapt to his new reality.

As Gregor's condition isolates him from society and his family, Kafka masterfully explores the fragility of human relationships and the burden of societal expectations. The novella's sparse, yet evocative prose immerses readers in a world where the absurd becomes a lens for examining profound existential questions.

The Metamorphosis remains one of the most celebrated works of modernist literature, offering a timeless exploration of the boundaries of humanity, the nature of compassion, and the search for meaning in an indifferent world.

This is Julius


Julius is an ordinary eight year old. All children in the 7-10 age groups can identify with him. What separates Julius from most other kids in his age is that deep down he is an incurable romantic.

Julius has realized he is in love with Linn. She is in his class, first grade at a school in Stockholm, Sweden, and he decides to ask her for a date. But it turns out to be much harder than he expected, partly because he doesn’t know how to say it, and partly because his best friend Isak constantly does things to stop him. But when Linn invites Julius to her birthday party the last weekend of summer break, and the rumour has it it will be dancing and then maybe some hugging, Julius decides to give it a try.

Julius is a special boy, and at the same time very ordinary. He lives by trial and error, and usually does his own thing. And everything he does, he does with charm and cleverness. His family consists of his mother Melek, who works at a nursing home and who exercises regularly to stay in shape, his father Bjorn, who is an author but spends most of his time thinking about the big philosophical questions in life, and his little sister Lydia, a wild two-year old with a passion for toothpaste.

This is Julius is the first book in this new success series, and it is set during the very last days of first grade before summer break.
