What we know for sure...
These are just some of the facts we know for sure about the next Harry Potter book, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince:
It will be called Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. JK Rowling confirmed this on her official site. It was previously believed to be called The Pillar of Storge.
We will see a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher as Umbridge was chucked out finally.
We will learn more about this prophecy concerning Voldemort and Harry.
There will be more deaths, as the Wizarding World is truly at war once again.
Jo confirmed that Cornelius Fudge will be kicked out of office anf we will have a new Minister of Magic.
In either HBP or Book 7, we will learn something HUGE about Lily Evans.
Harry will learn the significance of his eyes being green.
Harry will have his shortest stay yet with the Dursleys at Number 4 Privet Drive.
HBP will almost certainly not be as long as OotP, though Jo said she wouldn't "swear on her children's lives".
The HBP is neither Harry nor Voldemort.
Mark Evans has no significance whatsoever to the plot.
The first chapter of HBP is similar to a discarded first chapter in SS/PS. She finally found a home where it would fit well with the overall story.
Harry and his friends will be in their sixth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
We will learn of a graveyard on the school grounds. Perhaps Harry will finally see his parents' graves.
Wormtail, who was absent from OotP, will make a reappearance and play a role in HBP.
We'll find out what Dudley saw when he was attacked by the Dementor last summer.
We will learn more about the circumstances of Voldemort's death and what led him down the path of evil.
Narcissa Malfoy will play more of a role, now that Lucius is in Azkaban.
Harry might have a little more romance in HBP, though it is confirmed that him and Cho "are over".
I will update this page whenever new information becomes available and confirmed by JK Rowling.
