J. K. Rowling: More Cormoran Strike Books Than Harry Potter Series Planned

At the recent Theakstons Old Peculiar Crime Writing Festival, J. K. Rowling revealed that there will probably be more Cormoran Strike books than there were books in the Harry Potter series:

The author, who recently released her second novel featuring detective Cormoran Strike, said that she wants to publish more than the seven books released as part of the Harry Potter series.

…

“It’s pretty open ended. I really love writing, so I don’t know that I’ve got an end point in mind,” Rowling explained.

“One of the things I love about this genre is unlike Harry Potter, where there was a through line, where there was an overarching story, a beginning and end, you are talking about discreet stories. 

“So while a detective lives, you can keep giving him cases.”
