引述路透社的報導指出，J.K.羅琳透露至少會有兩位角色會在哈利波特第七集喪命, 但是她也堅拒透露犧牲者的姓名. 她早就已經宣布這套小說的最後一章早已寫成,不過最近她稍微修改了一下. 她也解釋她能瞭解作者試圖"謀害"暢銷小說主角的心理. "在第七冊結束以前,我從未受到謀害哈利的誘惑,因為我規劃好這一系列有七冊, 而第七冊就是結局. "然而我可以體會'謀害'主角的作者心理, 因為這就表示,別人無法狗尾續貂, 整個故事就終於己身, 等到我百年之後, 別人也無法把他從墳墓裡挖起來＂ 她是在接受英國BBC電視訪問時做出以上表示. -------------------------------------------------- Rowling says 2 characters die in final Potter book LONDON (Reuters) - Children's author J.K. Rowling has revealed that at least two characters will die in the seventh and final instalment of her bestselling Harry Potter series, but was careful not to say who. Children and adults are expected to rush and buy the final Harry Potter novel in their tens of millions when it is complete, and if the publication of the sixth book is anything to go by, secrecy surrounding the plot will be tight. Rowling has already said that the final chapter of the seventh book was written long ago. "The final chapter is hidden away, although it's now changed very slightly," she said in an interview broadcast on Monday on Channel 4. "One character got a reprieve, but I have to say two die that I didn't intend to die." When asked to be more specific, she added: "No, I'm not going to commit myself, because I don't want the hate mail or anything else." She did explain that she understood an author's desire to kill off the main character of a successful series. "I've never been tempted to kill him (Harry) off before the end of book seven, because I always planned seven books and that's where I want to go. "I can completely understand, however, the mentality of an author who thinks 'Well, I'm going to kill them off because that means there can be no non-author-written sequels ... so it will end with me, and after I'm dead and gone they won't be able to bring back the character'." --
