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.

Lacná kniha Legendás állatok és megfigyelésük - Az eredeti forgatókönyv (-90%)


1926-ot írunk. Amikor az ifjú magizoológus, Göthe Salmander megérkezik New Yorkba, még csak nem is sejti, hogy az eseményeknek milyen különös láncolatát indítja el. Mágikus bőröndjéből ugyanis kiszökik néhány varázslény, akiknek üldözése közben ő és újdonsült barátai sokkal nagyobb veszedelmekkel is szembekerülnek, mint amekkorát egy szerelmes randalór vagy egy aranytól megrészegült orrontó furkász jelent. A Roxfort Boszorkány- és Varázslóképző Szakiskola könyvtárának népszerű darabja, a Göthe Salmander által írt Legendás állatok és megfigyelésük adott ihletet J.K. Rowlingnak, a Harry Potter-könyvek szerzőjének e forgatókönyv megírásához. Rowling csodálatos világának rajongói lapról lapra élvezhetik az írónő megkapó humorát, varázsvilág-építő fantáziájának működését és mély, megértő szeretetét úgy a pálcaforgató, mint a varázstalan emberek iránt. Lebilincselő olvasmány és igazi kuriózum minden gyűjtő számára.

Could a myth thrust two children into an adventure they didn't ask for and never expected?If you're feeling brave, step into the pages of this book to find out...
