I`rn sure the^'!� be thr�l� to have the opportunr�y of p^blishi^g the Lexi�r^. We are going to Frankfurt, but unfortunately my schedule is already fully boked . My col�egue (a� mother} Luria still has some free slas and we can ttY to set up a me�� witF^ her.

Dear Joao Pau1o: You are correct. The Harry Potter Lexicon is the number one reference site in the world to the popular series with more than 25 million visitors annually including .K. Bowling hersel# who loves the site, the editors of the series (the site lists all the errors �^ the books}, the filmmakers who use the site every day when they are on the set, as well as academics, c^ tics, journalists and millions of readers. The guld standard on Harry Potter reference, ^h�s site links dixectly to every other Harry Potter webs�te and the publicity on this book, to be published i^ America aid Britain in late October, will be tremendous. Since there is no index to the books and every other book vn the subject �s now out of date, our title will be the only

^^^.^ F^. O`^!3? ^

complete up to date reference book o^ the sex�es through Book 7, Harsy Potter and The Deathly Hallows. We have a team of 22 people working on the book right mow, Rights have been sold in Canada, Bxzta�n and France and we are receiving offers now from Spain, the Netherlands and Italy. Although this is an unoff�^al book, it �s without a doubt the definitive book vn the series, and will come out way ahead of any possible competitors. I^ addit�o^ there may be subsequent books based on the site which has well ever 1000 pages of material. The book will be published at �O pages about I50,0�0 words} �n the style of an illuminated manuscript with beautifully designed letters oper�ng each section. We do not want to sell this to any of the publishers currently publishing the Potter books, The International Publishers so far are Methuen �n the UK ^^ weU as Arlene Editions �n Canada. i w�11 get you the names of the other publishers shortly. The complete manuscript will be available next week. Will you be attending the Frank�t^xt Fair? Also, please give me a good time to call yvu tomorrow.
