Sivy Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 The title of the sixth Harry Potter book will be .... "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince." Rowling made the announcement on her Web site, JKRowling.com, although it took some knowledge of her site by dedicated fans to reveal the title. The path to find the title was explained on a fan's site, WizardNews.com, and was confirmed Tuesday by her literary agent/ doesn't give anything away does it?

Dr Edison 007 Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 They should do something different with the series like make Harry drop out of wizard school and become a standup comic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMadDoofer Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 That's a pretty crappy title - it doesn't flow well, or sound intersting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ET Warrior Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 Don't suppose there's any news on WHEN we can expect this book I think the title sounds neat though Edit - It says on that site that Rowling has confirmed that the half-blood prince is neither Harry NOR Voldemort WHO IS IT?

MennoniteHobbit Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 The half-blood prince is Colin Creevey! >_> <_< Hmm I'll guess seriously later though. The Half-Blood Prince does sound pretty good... now all I need to do is wait for the book! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not of anything. 1. The stone is of the sorcerer 2-5 something of something. The prince is Percy, he's really adopted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrion Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 When I heard Half-blood Prince, I thought she meant Hagrid. And I agree with Jokemaster, it doesn't sound right because it doesn't have any wording that suggests possession. Sorcerer's Stone, Prisoner of Azkaban, Order of the Phoenix, The Half-life Blood Prince. Doesn't fit in. Besides, each title had a mystical quality to it. Sorcerer's Stone; sorcerer is magical. Chamber of Secrets; suggests some chamber filled with secrets. Prisoner of Azkaban; a prisoner from the most dangerous Prison in the world. Goblet of Fire; it's a goblet filled with fire. Order of the Phoenix; The Phoenix was a magical creature that would die and then regenerate itself. Half-Blood Prince..it sounds like some bad rap title.

MennoniteHobbit Posted June 30, 2004 Share Posted June 30, 2004 or... *drumrolls* The Half-Blood prince is Hermione, because she's bi! ewwww bad thought. jokemaster: I don't seem to remember anywhere in the books where it says Percy is adopted.

ET Warrior Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 Originally posted by Tyrion (Yeah, that's it. That was a purely intentional spelling mistake. Er...) Don't you feel SMART now. Half-life blood prince... I really don't see anything wrong with the title, but you all can cry if you wish. Hagrid is the only one I can think of, because he's one of the few that's refered to as half-blood, as he's a half-giant. Wizards with mixed muggle/wizard parentage are refered to as mudblood or mixed blood. At least....that's what I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alegis Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 Harry will go on a muggle rampage, thats my bet. Stupid title, but then again whats in a name except a few letters...of which some can be capital letters, or maybe numbers and characters...and maybe some effects nevermind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jokemaster Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 ....Or it may be a completely new character, like Prisoner of Azkaban wasn't someone already introduced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In your face bucko This book shall be interesting, a prince, hmm... that and the 2nd war starting up... should be one to watch. BTW: I should think Harry will die, after all, nobody wants to read Harry Potter and the Midlife Crisis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Windu Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 Originally posted by Tyrion . Half-Blood Prince..it sounds like some bad rap title. I won't touch that rap part because I would be banned. Ahem... moving on. Harry is a mudblood, though many fail to remember, or just don't care. The other qualities of Harry, his scar, his history, are more interesting to the wizard world than his mudblood. The ministry had been ragging on Harry the entire fricking 5th book. Lets see how they handle He who must not be named. Percy Weasley, I doubt he will come back to his family, and it would make a great turnaround if he became a DeathEater or something like that... Hell, he may be the key to Voldemort inside the Ministry of Magic. I doubt Percy Weasley is adopted, he is alot like Bill, hi marks, etc. The only difference about him is that he is willing to stake everything for success, whereas the rest of the Weasley's have just been the opposite, caring for others.
