The Harry Potter franchise is set to release four new eBooks next month, on 27 June, offering fans of the boy wizard the chance to 'delve deeper into the rich history of magic'.

The non-fiction short stories, all called 'Harry Potter: A Journey Through…' have been adapted from the audiobook Harry Potter: A History of Magic, which was inspired by the British Library exhibition - J.K. Rowling is not involved.

Harry's parents were killed when he was a baby by the novels' antagonist Lord Voldemort, who tries to kill the boy wizard and destroy the wizarding world with his followers made up of the Death Eaters and Dementors.

The seven books spawned a worldwide Harry Potter franchise - with eight blockbuster films as well as a themed area at Universal Studios and a studio tour in London.

Daniel Radcliffe starred as Harry Potter in the film series, with Emma Watson as Hermione Granger and Rupert Grint as Ron Weasley.
