JK Rowling says final Potter book ‘coming along nicely’

You can Rest Easy Now. JK Rowling, author of the internationally successful Harry Potter series, said the seventh and final book about the schoolboy wizard “is coming along nicely” as she won Britain’s Book of the Year award.

Her sixth book, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, received the accolade at the British Book Awards on Wednesday night, beating one on Italian cuisine, a comic view of today’s world and a music promoter’s autobiography.
