Still my favorite Harry Potter book ( ![]() Ok so this one is my favourite! I really enjoyed rereading this, and I think this is the point the bigger story begins to come together more and set up future events with Peter Pettigrew etc. I do wish Ron and Harry weren't so mean to Hermoine though. And Harry starts to get quite annoying and develop his "rules don't apply to me, I'll do whatever I want because I know better than all the adults around me" attitude. I do wish certain adults (Dumbledore, Sirius) didn't encourage that! We get to hear a little bit about James Potter but not a lot.. and from what we hear I don't think I like him! He also sounds like the worst kind of over-achieving smug, arrogant teenager who again thinks because he's smart he can do whatever he wants (like Harry but x10 worse). I don't think we ever learn anything about his family, where he came from.. what he actually did after Hogwarts? I'd like to know more about that. Ah, "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" by J.K. Rowling, a novel about a boy wizard and his little friends fighting against the dark lord. I was impressed by the intricate plot and vivid descriptions of the wizarding world. This installment features a thrilling story involving a dangerous prisoner who has escaped from the wizarding prison of Azkaban. Harry and his friends have to face their fears and learn to trust each other to uncover the truth. It's a great read, even for those who are not into the wizarding world. Just don't let Harry Potter's bravery fool you, for it is his downfall. 4.9 The third book of the Harry Potter series follows the life of Harry Potter attending Hogwarts while amid a man hunt for a notorious killer that has escaped from Azkaban, believed to be after Harry to kill and carry out the unfinished business of his master, Voldemort. This book would be beneficial in a classroom library for 6th-7th graders, intriguing all readers with its beautiful and mythical imagery, mystery, and dark plot.
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 Igual que en las dos primeras partes de la serie –La piedra filosofal y La cámara secreta– Harry aguarda con impaciencia el inicio del tercer curso en el Colegio Hogwarts de Magia y Hechicería. Tras haber cumplido los trece años, solo y lejos de sus amigos de Hogwarts, Harry se pelea con su bigotuda tía Marge, a la que convierte en globo, y debe huir en un autobús mágico. Mientras tanto, de la prisión de Azkaban se ha escapado un terrible villano, Sirius Black, un asesino en serie con poderes mágicos que fue cómplice de lord Voldemort y que parece dispuesto a eliminar a Harry del mapa. Y por si esto fuera poco, Harry deberá enfrentarse también a unos terribles monstruos, los dementores, seres abominables capaces de robarles la felicidad a los magos y de borrar todo recuerdo hermoso de aquellos que osan mirarlos. Lo que ninguno de estos malvados personajes sabe es que Harry, con la ayuda de sus fieles amigos Ron y Hermione, es capaz de todo y mucho más.
