Harry Potter in EPUB or MOBI formats?

[vcott]

Anyone know where i can get Harry Potter or Hunger Games books in Chinese in EPUB or MOBI formats?  Traditionally is preferred but I'll take anything I can get.  I'm happy to pay for it, I just can't find them anywhere.

Must they be in those formats? If you have an android phone, you can find apps like the ones shown in the photos attached.

Google: [name of the book] 繁体 [epub / mobi]

 

if it's out there, you'll find it. You might need to register somewhere or spend five minutes figuring out which of the big flashing '下载' links actually gets you the book.

Thanks All.  I only have an Iphone and a Kindle so Android unfortunately doesn't work for me.  

 

I've actually spend over an hour surfing the internet as suggested, with no luck, but not because there aren't references in google.  Problem is there are far too many but they don't get me any closer to an answer.  

 

I'm guessing the answer lies in some website or app (like the android app for example) that isn't apparent from just a google search. 

 

Any other ideas?

All that rubbish in your post - it's probably the result of a browser plugin conflicting with our editor software. Could you try disabling plug-ins, or a different browser, or if you're copying and pasting in from somewhere, just type directly into the editor. Or hit the top left button to disable a lot of the javascript. 

 

Drop me a line if you need some help. I edited the first post thinking it was a one-off, but it looks like it isnt'...

Don't use google. Use a chinese search engine, like baidu. Search it in Chinese. I have found some, taken a look but the one I downloaded was not of very good quality.

try this -> http://www.pubu.com.tw/combo/飢餓遊戲1-3套書-18734

All right, I have found you the epub for hunger games. They look beautiful. http://www.mediafire.com/download/5bgs7p1ra3zlyg6/The+Hunger+Games.rar

[skylee]

And Harry Potter can be found here (I haven't looked at them as I am not interested) -> http://iask.sina.com.cn/u/2684771592/ish?folderid=716539

That hunger games ePub looks great... Any chance you've found one in simplified?

Skylee - THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

 

I've literally spent a dozen hours trying to find those books over the last month or so with no luck.  You are a star!

 

PS:  I used Firefox instead of Safari for this....did all that garbled text go away?

 

 

[roddy]

It did - drop me a pm if you want to try and diagnose the problem.

Hi. I dont know if this is helpful since you asked specifically for epub books, but I have found an iphone app called 喜马拉雅 that has the Harry Potter audiobooks. I've been listening to book 1, and it seems pretty good quality. I've been thinking of listening to the audiobook, then trying to read the written book slowly. My audio comprehension is much better than my reading.

[戴 睿]

Kikosun, thank you for the App recommendation. I was just able to download all of the first audiobook. it's an awesome resource.

[kikosun]

I'm glad you found the app helpful! I discovered it a few weeks ago, and been using it a lot for audio practice. It has lots of stories and audiobooks and radio recordings of music and other stuff. It's my favorite listening app.

I read a column about Harry Potter today. I think it is interesting. Take a look ->

哈利波特的愛情(１)       

羅琳說，《哈利波特》完稿這麼多年後，她不得不承認，也許妙麗不應該和榮恩配成一對，因為，妙麗的確和哈利比較合襯。

 

有些粉絲立即說：「早說哈妙配才是王道！」有些粉絲卻說：「為啥？哈利是個自我中心的男人，不會給妙麗幸福，榮恩卻不同，榮恩會是個好老公。」在羅琳筆下，哈利只曾愛過兩個女生，一個是張秋，一見鍾情，沒甚麼特別原因，就是因為張秋長得實在美；另一個，就是榮恩的妹妹金妮，結局也就是哈利變成榮恩的妹夫。

 

對於張秋，沒有一個女生會「順氣」，因為她只憑樣靚就贏了，每名《哈利波特》的女粉絲，無不把自己幻想成妙麗：聰明絕頂，和哈利出生入死，雖然頭髮永遠都不順服，但其實長得也不醜；像張秋這樣的角色，擺明就是寫出來刺激女粉絲的，以至後來突然爆出在前幾集一直不說話的金妮，原來自小暗戀哈利，成長為亭亭玉立的女巫師後，成為可以讓哈利專心去打佛地魔的背後女人，大家也就……OK啦，OK是因為怎也比張秋好，而只是「OK啦」亦是因為——不過就是比張秋好而已。

 

但無論是一見鍾情的張秋，還是暗裏萌芽的金妮，羅琳都沒有把很多篇幅給她們，因為沒有足夠的篇幅，對讀者來說，也就總覺得有點牽強；相反，哈利和妙麗，卻是由第一集就開始共同成長，全球幾億粉絲用了十年時間和他倆(其實連榮恩是「他們仨」才對)一起共生死……可是作為《哈利波特》的超級粉絲，我也不認為哈利和妙麗是一對——下篇再續。
