( )Another great book in the series. Read this one with Alex too. All the books are very similar and they are all very good. In this book there is a mass murder that is called Sirius Black who escaped from Azkaban recently. When Harry finds out that Sirius Black is his Godfather things get into a situation. Seven out of ten.The third book in the Harry Potter series. A mass-murdering prisoner has escaped from Azakaban and the Dementors, the prison guards, have arrived in Hogwarts to protect the students and hunt the prisoner. It is understood that the prisoner is seeking Harry but he must be safe in Hogwarts surrounded by friends - unless there is a traitor... One of the best books in the series saw the whole story take a darker tone that adds much more suspense.
All current reviews of Harry Potter books should probably be addressed to some future audience for whom Harry is book rather than phenomenon; at the moment, reviews seem superfluous. For the record, then, O future reader, this latest installment in Harry’s saga is quite a good book. So far, in terms of plot, the books do nothing very new, but they do it brilliantly

|
As it turns out, Harry isn't punished at all for his errant wizardry. Instead he is mysteriously rescued from his Muggle neighborhood and whisked off in a triple-decker, violently purple bus to spend the remaining weeks of summer in a friendly inn called the Leaky Cauldron. What Harry has to face as he begins his third year at Hogwarts explains why the officials let him off easily. It seems that Sirius Black--an escaped convict from the prison of Azkaban--is on the loose. Not only that, but he's after Harry Potter. But why? And why do the Dementors, the guards hired to protect him, chill Harry's very heart when others are unaffected? Once again, Rowling has created a mystery that will have children and adults cheering, not to mention standing in line for her next book. Fortunately, there are four more in the works.
