So this is good news for members of the 'book before the film' club who might want to read the tale before seeing it unfold on the big screen.

The book will be released in Hardback first and available from all the usual book retailers including Amazon, Waterstones, Foyles and most major supermarkets from Wednesday 18th November.

And a bonus fact? The cover artwork is designed by superstar design duo MinaLima who worked on all the original Harry Potter films as graphic designers.

Yep, they are the minds behind the iconic pages of The Daily Prophet and the 'HAVE YOU SEEN THIS WIZARD?' posters used by the Ministry of Magic to help track down Sirius Black when he escaped from Azkaban.
