I have heard a lot about this book. I had prebooked this book and got this when it released. I am a big fan of harry potter series so I decided to buy this book. I have read all the harry potter books and have seen all movies. So I thought this will be a great book too so I bought it.
Harry Potter and the cursed child book:
Packaging and book cover:
Very good packaging nothing much to say about the packaging. The book came in a plastic amazon covering as usual. The book was in good quality and had good quality pages. I bought a hardcover book which was quite attractive and it looked and felt quite beautiful.
Author:
You must be thinking what am I talking about. But yes it is not mostly written by JK Rowling. The main authors are John Tiffany and Jack Thorne. They discussed this book with JK Rowling and then wrote the book. The people who think that JK Rowling has written they must underztand that it is not. The story is just inspired from Harry Potter books.
Book quality:
The book quality was the best and as it was a hardcover it was quite hefty. The pages are quite thick and the text is also quite impressive. This book also comes in kindle version so you can also buy that if you have a kindle app or or kindle itself.
Summary:
The people who kind of like JK Rowlings writing might not be impressed by this as this book or script is not written by JK Rowling. The writing or the language as you will get while reading is different that the main harry potter books. This story also might be disappointing to some people. But I quite liked the story and the writing.
The story is about a cursed child as the book suggest and if you haven't read the book feel free to read I am not giving any spoilers. Who is the cursed child is the mystery, whether they talking about harry or albus severus potter, his son. Here Harry has become a man and a husband and has 3 children. He is ministry of magic employee and has always wanted to live like that. They story mainly revolves around how Albus and Harry go through this dark fase which is coming in there life.
Script not book?
Yes this mainly is a script introducted as a book. This script has been made into a play in London, and sadly the actors are different. People who had ordered the book and had no information about it thought it was a book. But it is a script written for a play. Many people got very disappointed by that. But I being a big fan of Harry Potter series was quite intringued by this.
Pre-order:
This book in 2016 was available for pre order and I was the person who ordered it reluctuntly. I think it came after 3-4 months but I ws quite happy after it arrived. I read this book in 2-3 days and was quite satisfied. People who are looking to buy it now can buy it on amazon still.
Price:
When I first pre ordered this book it costed me 899/- and now it costs for 799/- on amazon.
