I don’t think the cover has any clues:

Potter and that other dude both dead in the end? Don’t believe the hype.

why does this market end sometime in 2008? I thought the “series” ends with volume seven, that is published in July 07? It just would be more fun to buy shares in this market if it end pretty soon?
Best, Muenchen

This market should be closed. The book is out tomorrow, but anyone who has been a trip to The Pirate Bay (or knows someone who has) knows that the book has leaked, and we know the ending…

Agree that this market needs to be closed. I got this forwarded to me via email…

[SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER]

Chapter 36, The Flaw in the Plan

…“The bang was like a canon blast, and the golden flames that erupted between them, at the dead center of the circle they had been treading, marked the point where the spells collided. Harry saw Voldemort’s green jet meet his own spell, saw the Elder Wand fly high, dark against the sunrise, spinning across the enhanced ceiling like the head of Nagini, spinning through the air toward the master it would not kill, who had come to take full possession of it at last. And Harry, with the unerring skill of the Seeker, caugth the wand in the free hand as Voldemort fell backward, arms splayed, the slit pupils of the scarlet eyes rolling upward. Tom Riddle hit the floor with a mundane finality, his body feeble and shrunken, the white hands empty, the snakelike face vacant and unknowing, Voldemort was dead, killed by his own rebounding curse, and Harry stood with two wands in his hands, staring down at his enemy’s shell.”

Epilogue: Nineteen Years

…The last trace of steam evaporated in the autmn air. The train rounded a corner. Harry’s hand was still raised in farewell.
“He’ll be all right,” murmured Ginny.
As Harry looked at her, he lowered his hand absentmindedly and touched the lightning scar on his forehead.
“I know he will”
The scar had not pained Harry for nineteen years. All was well.

The End.

It’s a problem that markets aren’t closed and cashed out quickly enough, IMO. It takes away a lot of the fun.
