Writer J. K. Rowling has once again put her fans to a test, this time prizing them with the title of her new Harry Potter novel.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be the seventh and final book of the series, and it took some of the smartest fans only 40 minutes to get to it through the puzzles and riddles. The clues were posted on her website www.jkrowling.com on Thursday without warning, but the news spread quickly.

Speculations now have started piling up as fans and scholars are trying to decipher the meaning of the title, since the word "hallows" has never been part of any of the previous books. Some believe that the book will show the young wizard's struggle to destroy seven objects that bear pieces of the soul of his archenemy Lord Voldemort. Others think it may have more to do with Halloween, or All Hallows' Eve when Harry Potter's parents were killed.

There is still no information on when the author would submit her manuscript.

The stories of orphaned wizard Harry Potter have gained Rowling worldwide popularity and made her one of the richest women on the planet. With tension escalating in the last novels, and the tragic end of the sixth one, fans are eagerly awaiting the seventh book, and it is expected to break all sales records. Rumors are that Rowling may kill Potter off in the end of the book so she wouldn't be bothered with requests for continuing the series.
