All seven of J.K. Rowling’s popular science fiction novels are now available as digital books and as audio books on the Pottermore website. While they aren’t available directly through Amazon’s Kindle or Sony’s Reader Store, the ePub format is compatible with most e-readers, tablets, and smartphones.
All books are priced at $7.99 (or £4.99), while the audio versions are $29.99. The books are currently only available in English.
Rowling was one of the last holdouts against digital publishing; she announced last June that the Potter series would be available in October as eBooks. It took longer than she predicted.
Rowling is currently working on an adult novel. She hasn’t revealed much about the new book, including whether it will be available as an eBook.
