Almost one month after the world lost Alan Rickman to cancer (Professor Snape in the Harry Potter saga), J.K. Rowling comforts fans whilst announcing a new Harry Potter book: the script book of Harry Potter and The Cursed Child – a two-part West End play due to open this summer.
The story is set 19 years after the very end of the final book, and follows the story of Harry (as a Ministry of Magic employee) and his son, Albus.
