Harry Potter is a fantasy sequel written by J. K. Rowling, whose original saga ended in 2007. A play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, based on a story by J. K. Rowling and directed by John Tiffany, was performed in London in 2016. The books and the script for the play have been translated into French by Jean-François Ménard.

The saga follows the adventures of an apprentice wizard named Harry Potter and his friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, run by Albus Dumbledore. The main plot of the series centres on young Harry Potter's battle against a reputedly immortal and super-powerful dark wizard, Lord Voldemort, who once murdered his parents. Voldemort, who heads a loyal group of dark wizards known as the Death Eaters, has been trying to seize power over the wizarding world for decades. After many twists and turns and a huge battle at Hogwarts, Voldemort is finally killed by Harry.

In July 2016, the script for the play Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, written by Jack Thorne, was published. The play is based on a story by J. K. Rowling and features the characters from the original saga and their children, recounting their adventures nineteen years after the end of the last volume.

Eight successful films (the last novel having been split into two parts released eight months apart), as well as video games and numerous other spin-off products have been adapted from the series of novels.
