Title: Harry Potter’s Universe: Untold Secrets
Author: Stuart Brooke Richardson
Format: eBook
With 25 billion dollars worth in combined book, movie, game and merchandising sales, the Harry Potter universe is the most successful fiction franchise in the world.
Yet over that 20+ years there has been little talk of what the stories are actually based on, which is in reality two things: mysticism and ancient history.
These two subjects are extremely fascinating in their own rights, and Harry Potter’s Universe: Untold Secrets goes into great detail about just how much of J. K. Rowling’s stories stem from these two worlds of thought. This brand new book goes play-by-play, diving into the secret meanings that are riddled throughout literally every part of each story. This includes the literal translations and meanings of different spells, the different elements from real history which inspired various aspects of the stories, myriad mystical concepts drawn from historical and modern mysticism, and more.
After going through the Harry Potter stories, the author then includes a chapter about the newer Fantastic Beasts stories, exposing more interesting facts about Rowling’s inspirations, and about the fundamental messages that Rowling has left for us ‘between the lines’ of her fantastically creative and wonderful writing.
Every single Harry Potter fan should read this little book, if only to see what they’ve missed in Rowling’s myriad pages and movie scenes (and, more importantly, to discover the amazing depths of knowledge and wisdom that have – until now – remained ‘behind the scenes’!)…
