Potter fever rises as covers revealed

THE burning question of whether schoolboy wizard Harry Potter lives or dies will be revealed in the seventh and final installment of the saga which will hit the shelves on July 21.

The covers of Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows have been revealed with the children’s edition featuring an illustration of a distinctly grown-up-looking Harry, Hermione and Ron.

The adult edition has a photograph of a locket bearing a serpentine “S” — believed to be the “horcrux” in which the evil Lord Voldemort keeps a fragment of his soul.
