Harry Potter and the Cursed Child - Reading Challenge

Due on Dec 02 25 words minimum
INTRO: Based on an original new story by J.K. Rowling, John Tiffany and Jack Thorne, a new play by Jack Thorne, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is the eighth story in the Harry Potter series and the first official Harry Potter story to be presented on stage. The play will receive its world premiere in London's West End on 30th July 2016.

It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn't much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband and father of three school-age children.

While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places.

I learnt that this book is the script to a play. It is interesting to know that this is what J.K. Rowling endorses as the sequel to the Deathly Hallows.

I believe that adult Harry's son (the protagonist) will get in trouble. I predict his son will be in Slytherin. I predict that Harry's son and Draco's friend will have the same relationship as Harry and Ron when Harry was young.
