As reported by many blogs, a leaked copy of HP7 is now making the rounds on the internet. The leak is by no means simple to read or indeed complete. Someone has manually taken snapshots of each of the first 495 pages and the book still seems to have at least 1/4 left. The file even made a brief appearance on Oink.cd before the admins removed it.

Deathly Hallows Week, Day 2: News
July 16th, 2007

Update on DH Leak: I did some digging around, and the leak may be a real copy of the book. If the leak is not a hoax, it appears someone got a hold of a copy, is taking pictures of each page, scanning them and uploading them. I saw some of the pictures (without reading any words), and it certainly looks genuine. ..

Update 1: Well, it looks like the epilogue has also been leaked, so I already know who dies and who doesn’t…. and who else ended up being a hero ….

Update 2: The whole book has been leaked.

Update 3: This is now absolutely confirmed to be the real book..

    I have the file, and I have read the first 20 pages. I can tell you that it is definitely real--after reading thousands of pages of J.K. Rowlings writing, you can tell that this is her style and prose. I won't put any spoilers up, but I can tell you that someone dies in the FIRST CHAPTER! It looks like this is going to be one sad book...

    19 years after the events in the book:
    Ron has married Hermione, their two children are named Rose and Hugo
    Harry has married Ginny, their three children are named Lily, James, and Albus severus.
    Draco Malfoy has a son named Scorpius
    The epilogue shows all of the children boarding the train for Hogwarts together.
    The final lines of the book are: "The scar had not pained Harry for 18 years. All was well."

    Plot Spoilers

    Part of Voldemort's soul was implanted into Harry whenever he used Ara Kadvara on him when he was a baby. Harry then sacrafices himself a la Lilly Potter style, which allows him to kill Voldemort without killing himself. He brings himself back to life using a wand and a rock
    Snape went to the good side (Hogwarts, etc.) because he was all emo that Voldemort killed Lilly Potter

    Hey Jack! How about helping out a Potter fan that is too eager to wait for the book to be delivered? :-D
  • Dopey
    Where can I get my hands on the scanned version?
  • Scott
    It seems very real. From the scans, it seems to be a library book because of the plastic casing around the cover. From the news items, librarians were allowed to open boxes to get the books ready for distribution.
