我刚好有看到这篇Time的文章，一直觉得新闻写的怪怪的。 原文如下: "There have been times since finishing, weak moments," she says, "when I've said, 'Yeah, all right,' to the eighth novel." But she's convinced she's doing the right thing to take some time away, do something else. She's working on two projects now, an adult novel and a "political fairy tale." "If, and it's a big if, I ever write an eighth book about the [wizarding ] world, I doubt that Harry would be the central character," she says. "I feel like I've already told his story. But these are big ifs. Let's give it 10 years and see how we feel then." 罗琳表示第八集的主角很可能不是哈利了，但她又表示 But these are big ifs，强调未来还有很多可能(也就是说哈利 也还有可能是主角)。罗琳自己也没有肯定第八集的主角就一 定不是哈利。 原文连结 http://www.time.com/time/specials/2007/personoftheyear/article/0,28804,1690753_1695388_1695436,00.html 有兴趣的人可以看看，里面写到很多有关哈利波特在全球的 影响力，还满有趣的，例如有法律系的教授还引用多比作为 契约法和公民权的教学例子，而且我从这篇报导才得知哈利 波特的销量有多惊人---第六集的第一天销售量竟然是达文西 密码整年的销售量总合(大概是我lag了,可能很多人都知道了)。 --
