"Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" is a two-part play written by Jack Thorne, based on a story by J.K. Rowling, John Tiffany, and Jack Thorne. The book was published on July 31, 2016, by Arthur A. Levine in the U.S., and Little, Brown & Company in the U.K. and is a direct sequel to the original "Harry Potter" book series.

The story takes place nineteen years after the events of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows." Harry Potter, now a Ministry of Magic employee, is married to Ginny Weasley and they have three children: James Sirius, Albus Severus, and Lily Luna. The story mainly revolves around Albus Severus Potter and his struggles to cope with the weight of his family legacy and to find his own identity.

The book explores the themes of father-son relationships, the dangers of messing with time, and the power of love and friendship. It introduces new characters, such as Scorpius Malfoy, the son of Draco Malfoy, who becomes Albus's closest friend.

The title "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" is fitting, as the "Cursed Child" refers to Albus Potter, who is burdened by the expectations of being Harry Potter's son. The author, J.K. Rowling, is well-known for her contributions to the "Harry Potter" franchise and her expertise in crafting compelling stories. Jack Thorne's co-authorship and John Tiffany's direction of the play added depth and complexity to the story.

The book is available in various formats, including hardcover, paperback, and ebook. The hardcover version of the book is 320 pages long, and the paperback version is 352 pages long.

Summarily, "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" is an entertaining addition to the "Harry Potter" franchise, but it does not quite live up to the original books. The play format may be difficult for some readers to follow, and the story can feel rushed and contrived at times. However, fans of the series will appreciate the chance to revisit the wizarding world and see what has become of their favorite characters.
