On the heals of the success of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, in a collaboration with Pottermore, J.K. Rowling will release three additional short stories based on the Potter universe.

With the play taking over London’s Palace Theatre, and Fantastic Beasts hitting theaters this November, Potter fans have much to celebrate. Now there’s even more to celebrate as Rowling puts pen to paper once more to explore Hogwarts as never before. The new Harry Potter ebooks are scheduled for a September 2016 release date.

The stories are titled:

As the titles convey, the first two Harry Potter ebooks will be about the political system of the wizarding world which includes the Ministers of Magic. The books will also provide more details about Azkaban, and give insight into Hogwarts most famous (and infamous) professors. Prepare to get some questions answered as we learn more about Minerva McGonagall, Horace Slughorn and Remus Lupin among others.

Fans will remember McGonagall as Harry Potter’s protective mother-figure, while Remus provided a connection to his lost parents. Slughorn appeared in later novels, and played a key role in Voldermort’s rise to power. Insight into these dynamic characters should answer some long standing questions, and help fans better understand the wizarding world.

The third ebook in the series, Hogwarts an Incomplete and Unreliable Guide will reveal more about the magical school’s most hidden secrets, and promises to provide more information about the ghosts who haunt Hogwarts.
