Which year saw the publication of J.K. Rowling’s final Harry Potter novel?

The story behind the answer

J.K. Rowling’s final Harry Potter novel was published in 2007.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the seventh and concluding novel in the main series, was released in the United Kingdom and the United States on 21 July 2007. It follows Harry, Ron, and Hermione as they search for Horcruxes and confront Lord Voldemort.

The publication date came ten years after the first novel appeared in Britain. The ending resolved the central conflict of the book series, although the wizarding world continued through companion works, stage productions, films, and later stories. The year is sometimes confused with 2011, when the film adaptation of Deathly Hallows Part 2 was released. The novel itself belongs to 2007; the final film arrived four years later.
