Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows appeared on 21 July 2007.
It was the seventh and final novel in J.K. Rowling’s main Harry Potter series. Bloomsbury published the English-language edition in the United Kingdom, while Scholastic released the American edition. The launch was accompanied by major midnight events and intense international interest.
The book follows Harry, Ron, and Hermione as they search for objects connected with Voldemort’s defeat rather than returning for a normal year at Hogwarts. Its publication completed the central narrative that began with Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone in 1997.
The date is distinct from the date of the final film adaptation, which was released in two parts. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 reached cinemas in 2011.
