Loyal fans of British author JK Rowling who managed to crack a code on Rowling’s official website have been rewarded with a sneak preview of the eagerly awaited sixth book in the Harry Potter series, according to reports on Monday.
Site visitors who scored a certain number of points in a darts game and then cracked a code were treated to the first two lines of the book, entitled Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.
”He looked rather like an old lion,” read the mysterious opening line, posted on Jkrowling.com.
”There were streaks of grey in his mane of tawny hair and his bushy eyebrows; he had keen yellowish eyes behind a pair of wire-rimmed spectacles and a certain rangy, loping grace even though he walked with a slight limp,” the book continues.
Rowling (36) is still writing the book and didn’t reveal any more details, not even telling fans who was being described. — Sapa-DPA
