A new hope for Harry

Maybe the story of Harry Potter isn't finished after all.

Author JK Rowling, the so-called Mrs Harry Potter, gave a glimmer of hope to the millions of fans of the phenomenally successful books last night.

Speaking to a rapturous audience in UCD, the author opened the possibility for more of the child wizard's adventures in coming years.

With the seventh book in the series, the story of Harry was presumed finished.

But last night Ms Rowling said she would "never say never" to another in the series.

However, for a series that was her life for 17 years, it would be another decade before she could ever revisit the adventures of the wizard, she said.

And judging by the reaction of 600 students, children and adult fans of the book last night, it is just as well.

"I do feel that the Harry story is now done," she said to a disappointed sigh which verged on tears.
