J.K. Rowling’s final main Harry Potter novel was published in the United Kingdom in 2007.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was released by Bloomsbury on 21 July 2007. It concludes the seven-novel series and follows Harry, Ron, and Hermione as they search for Horcruxes and face the escalating conflict with Lord Voldemort.
The novel followed Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, which was published in 2005. The two-year gap reflected the scale of the final book and the work involved in completing the story. Deathly Hallows became one of the fastest-selling books in publishing history.
The film adaptation was split into two parts, released in 2010 and 2011. That film split is separate from the novel’s publication year and can lead to confusion when people remember the ending through the movies rather than the book.
