do you have a link to the deluxe edition? i can't seem to find it.

i know there was a super special edition of book 1 that was also pretty pricey that i never purchased, but i came with a nicer hardcover

EDIT my bad, i just found it, i can't read. i can't tell what the difference is, but i'd get the regular edition for the only reason that it'd match the other books.

The impression that I got was that it had more illustrations. Probably not worth the extra money for anyone who actually cares about the story and not just a fancy package.

It's a book that is part of a series. It is a book which contains a story that very few in the world have any idea of what it's about (other than the general basics). It's a book that has hundreds of millions of readers. It's a book that has "cover art" and not just a title. So, you have hundreds of millions of people waiting for the release of the book, people who could probably describe all 5 covers of the books already out down to a very fine detail... and you're wondering why people are interested in what the next one might look like?

Cut some slack...

he can't understand why because Harry Potter really sucks.

I mean bad.

I can't even think of a comparison right now.

But, Damn. I mean REALLY sucks.

:roll: flame bait

did you read the books? if not, you have no room to talk. if you did, how could you read 2,500+ pages of books that you hate?

it can't be malfoy.. can't be ron.. cant' be harry and it can't be hermione... it has to be voldemort.. he's the only half blood of the main characters.. unless maybe neville is half.. but i believe they've mentioned that he's full blooded..

Neville is full but keep in mind, it could be anybody, from any time. Harry could be fulfilling a prophecy, maybe they resurrect a half-blood prince - the possibilities go on and on.
