Site Administrator Myr Posted June 29, 2004 Site Administrator Posted June 29, 2004 Thanks for the Link Nav... the trouble with working all day (and even OT today) is that I can't follow everything any more. I rely on you guys to help me out. Now... "'Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince'" that has some interesting connotations. Especially when you take in that she says that is it NOT Harry or Voldy. What do you FanFic writers think?
Navigator Posted June 30, 2004 Author Posted June 30, 2004 I'm thinking it might be Mark Evans Harry mentioned in book 5. Evans was Lily's last name. Pehaps he is a second cousin to Harry.
Gentim Posted June 30, 2004 Posted June 30, 2004 I wonder whether it could be any of the Muggle-born wizards we've already met. Hmmmm. If it is, that doesn't narrow the field any, does it??
miscelanious22 Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 (edited) That's cool!! Thanks for the link Edited July 7, 2004 by miscelanious22
BillM Posted July 8, 2004 Posted July 8, 2004 Many people have thought that so J. K Rowling posted on her site that he has nothing to do with the story, the name is just a coincidence I'm thinking it might be Mark Evans Harry mentioned in book 5. Evans was Lily's last name. Pehaps he is a second cousin to Harry. <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Navigator Posted July 8, 2004 Author Posted July 8, 2004 Pity. Even if he wasn't the Half Blood Prince his relation would've made for some great side plots.
dkstories Posted July 8, 2004 Posted July 8, 2004 Well, while I'm enjoying a short vacation with my best friend in San Francisco, I did manage to check out the site and story about this. The thing to remember is that in each of her books so far, JK Rowling has introduced some major aspects of the Wizarding world that we haven't seen before, and that has always been a major part of the book's plot. I think that we are very likely to see the chamber of secrets again in this book, with some additional stuff from there that wasn't found in Book 2. She's stated that some of the plot points for Book 6 were originally going to be a part of Chamber of Secrets, but she realized they really belonged in Book 6 instead. Exactly who the Half-Blood Prince will be, I'm not too sure. I'm fairly sure it won't be a character we've met before, but rather one we've heard reference to in some vague way. I'm also fairly sure that this HBP will be a key part of the war with Voldemort and might even be essential to Harry's victory in Book 7. Well, we'll have to see
Navigator Posted July 9, 2004 Author Posted July 9, 2004 Assuming, of course, that Harry wins. He probably will but Rowling has pulled twists on us before. In any event, Harry's continued existence is also up in the air. Even if he wins, it may cost him his life.
