Harry to relegate Roy from top spot
In Ireland, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is expected to sweep all before it well before the launch date of June 21, including the best-selling Roy Keane biography which is likely to be relegated to second division.
“It’s incredible. We’ve never seen anything like it,” a spokesman for Waterstones book store chain said yesterday. “Our advance orders are second to none. We have had thousands of calls from all over the country. This is even bigger than the last Harry Potter book and much more than the interest in the Keane biography.” All Waterstones stores will open at one minute past midnight on June 21 to facilitate buyers.
