J.K. Rowling sets new Harry Potter story at the Quidditch World Cup

J.K. Rowling has returned to the world of Harry Potter with a new short story set released on Tuesday and fittingly set at the Quidditch World Cup Final.

The story is told through the eyes of tabloid columnist and anti-Potter zealot Rita Skeeter, and gives updates on the grown up versions of the heroes from the books, like Harry, Hermione Granger, and the entire Weasley clan, as well as an appearance by Bulgarian quidditch star Viktor Krum.
