Joanne Rowling

Joanne „Jo“ Rowlingová je britská spisovateľka, scenáristka a filmová producentka. Preslávila ju knižná séria o Harrym Potterovi, a taktiež séria Fantastické zvery. Vo februári 2004 časopis Forbes odhadol jej majetok na 576 miliónov libier, čo ju radí medzi dolárových miliardárov ako vôbec prvého spisovateľa.

Vyštudovala francúštinu a literatúru na Universtiy of Exeter, neskôr pracovala ako bilingválna sekretárka pre Amnesty International. V tomto období vraj dostala nápad napísať príbeh o chlapcovi navštevujúcom čarodejnícku školu.

Žila s rodinou v Porte v Portugalsku, ale svoj prvý román o Harrym Potterovi dokončila v Edinbrughu, kde sa presťahovala za sestrou, v čase keď bola nezamestnaná a žila na podpore. Povráva sa, že román Harry Potter a kameň mudrcovu - 1. diel z príbehov o čarodejníkovi Harrym - napísala v edinburghskej kaviarni. 

Dodnes bolo vydaných 7 dielov Harryho Pottera a ôsmym pokračovaním je prepis divadelnej hry o Harrym.

Harry Potter 4 a Ohnivá čaša + Lunárny kalendár 2020


„Úlohy budú tri, rozložené na obdobie celého školského roka, a preveria reprezentantov po rôznych stránkach – ich čarodejnícku zručnosť, odvahu, dôvtip a, pravdaže, ich schopnosť zvládnuť nebezpečenstvo.“ Od chvíle, ako sa na oblohe nad Svetovým pohárom v metlobale zjaví Temné znamenie, Harrymu hrozí nebezpečenstvo. Ohnivá čaša ho vyberie ako reprezentanta Rokfortu v legendárnom Trojčarodejníckom turnaji. Čakajú ho náročné úlohy, ktoré preveria čarodejnícke schopnosti a odvahu aj tých najvýnimočnejších čarodejníkov – už v prvej sa Harry ocitne zoči-voči uhorskému chvostorožcovi. Tento turnaj je však pre Harryho iba predohrou k oveľa nebezpečnejšej skúške sily. V hmlách Little Hangletonu, kde ležia hroby predkov Toma Riddla, vrie najčernejšia mágia... Nositeľ Medaily Kate Greenawayovej za ilustrácie Jim Kay vyčaril svojím nenapodobiteľným umeleckým štýlom strhujúce scény a obľúbené postavy – Divookého Moodyho, Viktora Kruma, Ritu Skeeterovú a veľa ďalších. V ilustrovanom vydaní štvrtej knihy klasickej série J. K. Rowlingovej zabojujú Beauxbatons, Durmstrang a Rokfort o zisk Trojčarodejníckeho pohára.

Harry Potter és a Tűz Serlege


Harry Potter vakációja a szokásosnál jobbnak ígérkezik: részt vehet a varázsvilág legnagyobb sportünnepén, a Kviddics Világkupán. Ám az egybegyűltek szórakozása korántsem alakul felhőtlenül: baljós történések zavarják meg az eseményt. A Roxfort Boszorkány- és Varázslóképző Szakiskolába visszatérő diákok azonban hamar elfeledkeznek a meccsről, mivel kiderül, hogy ez évben a Roxfortban rendezik meg a Trimágus Tusát. Harry csak szurkolni készül a bajnokoknak, ám váratlanul maga is köztük találja magát. A próbák életveszélyesek, így gyanítható, hogy aki tudtán kívül benevezte Harryt a tusára, az bizony az életére tör.

Harry Potter és a Titkok kamrája - Illusztrált kiadás


Harry Potter varázslónak született, és jelenleg második tanévére készül a Roxfort Boszorkány-és Varázslóképző Szakiskolában. De már a szünidő sem telik eseménytelenül: egy nap különös szerzet , egy házimanó jelenik meg a Privet Drive-on, és közli Harryvel, hogy nagy veszély leselkedik rá, ha visszatér az iskolába. Harry a riválisa, Draco Malfoy mesterkedését sejti az üzenet mögött, és nem törődik a figyelmeztetéssel. Sőt, valójában el is feledkezik róla, ugyanis barátja, Ron egy repülő autón megszökteti a kibírhatatlan Dursley-éktől, s Harry a nyár további részét Weasley-éknél tölti. Ám a Roxfortba visszatérve hamarosan beigazolódik, hogy Dobby, a házimanó nem a levegőbe beszélt. Szörnyű dolgok vannak készülőben. A Kate Greenaway-díjjal kitüntetett Jim Kay pazar illusztrációkkal jeleníti meg J.K. Rowling varázslatos világát az immár klasszikus sorozat második kötetében.
