beedle the bardMuggles and Wizards, current members and alumni of Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw and Slytherin students of light magic, dark magic, or just plain-old algebra (magical in its way), we have an announcement: You can now pre-order Beedle the Bard at Better World Books.

That’s right; Beedle the Bard, the same book Dumbledore gives Hermoine to study, the same book that Harry uses to defeat Lord Voldemort, the same book that every wizard in training knows as well as the story of Goldilocks, is for sale now on the website.  You read “The Tale of the Three Brothers” in “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” but now you can look through the four other tales in Beedle the Bard.  Get a hold on what could be the last book in the Harry Potter series!

Sorry, we currently can’t accept anything from Gringotts, only credit cards and PayPal.

Brisingr

Think Harry Potter is for the kids?  Feel like taking on a tougher beast? Brisingr is Christopher Paolini’s followup to the very popular Eragon and Eldest.  This 700+ page tome stars wizards, dragons, elves, dwarves and myriad other mythical creatures, and is sure to satiate your desire for a great fantasy book. Paolini began writing the series when he was 15 and wrote one-third of the latest book with a quill and parchment (we kid you not). Check the rest of his titles here.
