China claims a first with the new Harry Potter [via Boing Boing]
From the "taking a complete and utter disregard for intellectual property to new heights" department:
DRENCHED by a mysterious rain, Harry Potter is transformed into a fat, hairy dwarf and stripped of his magic powers as he battles the forces of evil in the shape of a dragon.
The plot of the long-awaited fifth book about the young wizard[base ']s adventures? Not quite. This is the enterprising fiction of an anonymous Chinese author who has written a fake Harry Potter book to satisfy the extraordinary appetite for his stories.
