EXTREME RUMOR: Possible Title for Book 7
Two Potter-related titles were secretly registered as trademarks at the patent office on the release date of HBP last year: "Harry Potter and the Parseltongue Trophy" and "Harry Potter and the Great Revelation." A source at the patent office said that future titles are patented to avoid anyone from taking them before publication. However, we have no confirmation on these titles as of yet, and this conflicts with JK Rowling's statement at the interview at Radio City Music Hall in August that she recently schanged the title of book seven. Therefore, treat this rumor with extreme caution.

"You can tell by their behavior and their actions, from the horrors they committed and the atrocities that were committed on their orders.
