A rare Harry Potter prequel has been stolen


A rare Harry Potter prequel has been stolen. In 2008, Rowling wrote an 800-word manuscript, on two sides of an A5 postcard, for a charity auction, which has been stolen. The author took to Twitter and requested fans, "PLEASE DON'T BUY THIS IF YOU'RE OFFERED IT. Originally auctioned for @englishpen, the owner supported writers' freedoms by bidding for it."

The untitled prequel features characters Sirius Black and Harry's father James.

More than 450 million Harry Potter books have been sold worldwide.
