Description :
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
Turning the envelope over, his hand trembling, Harry saw a purple wax seal bearing a coat of arms; a lion, an eagle, a badger and a snake surrounding a large letter 'H'.
Harry Potter has never even heard of Hogwarts when the letters start dropping on the doormat at number four, Privet Drive. Addressed in green ink on yellowish parchment with a purple seal, they are swiftly confiscated by his grisly aunt and uncle. Then, on Harry's eleventh birthday, a great beetle-eyed giant of a man called Rubeus Hagrid bursts in with some astonishing news: Harry Potter is a wizard, and he has a place at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
An incredible adventure is about to begin.
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
'There is a plot, Harry Potter. A plot to make most terrible things happen at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry this year.' One year later in 1998 came the second edition from the collection that continues to tell the tales of a second year of Hogwarts School. Packed full of secrets, a rescue mission from the Dursley’s, the adventures of Harry Potter and his friends continue. More doom and gloom comes Harry’s way in a chain of events that sees a magical flying car save the day.
Harry Potter's summer has included the worst birthday ever, doomy warnings from a house-elf called Dobby, and rescue from the Dursleys by his friend Ron Weasley in a magical flying car! Back at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for his second year, Harry hears strange whispers echo through empty corridors - and then the attacks start. Students are found as though turned to stone... Dobby's sinister predictions seem to be coming true.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
'Welcome to the Knight Bus, emergency transport for the stranded witch or wizard. Just stick out your wand hand, step on board and we can take you anywhere you want to go.' Readers will now be familiar with life at home with the Dursley’s and how dreadful it is for Harry especially when school is out for the summer. But when an escapee from Azkaban Prison needs attention there’s plenty for Harry and his friends but before you know it, Quidditch season at school is about to begin. When the Knight Bus crashes through the darkness and screeches to a halt in front of him, it's the start of another far from ordinary year at Hogwarts for Harry Potter. Sirius Black, escaped mass-murderer and follower of Lord Voldemort, is on the run - and they say he is coming after Harry. In his first ever Divination class, Professor Trelawney sees an Omen of death in Harry's tea leaves... But perhaps most terrifying of all the dementors patrolling the school grounds, with their soul-sucking kiss...
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
'There will be three tasks, spaced throughout the school year, and they will test the champions in many different ways... their magical prowess - their daring - their powers of deduction - and, of course, their ability to cope with danger.' Several new characters are firm fixtures in the fourth book, but not everyone is as nice as they seem. Follow fourteen-year old Harry continues his adventures and thrills, living life as a young adolescent along with his friends. Jam packed with ups and downs, this enjoyable read has a real cliff-hanger at the end. The Triwizard Tournament is to be held at Hogwarts. Only wizards who are over seventeen are allowed to enter - but that doesn't stop Harry dreaming that he will win the competition. Then at Hallowe'en, when the Goblet of Fire makes its selection, Harry is amazed to find his name is one of those that the magical cup picks out. He will face death-defying tasks, dragons and Dark wizards, but with the help of his best friends, Ron and Hermoine, he might just make it through - ALIVE!
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
'You are sharing the Dark Lord's thoughts and emotions. The Headmaster thinks it inadvisable for this to continue. He wishes me to teach you how to close your mind to the Dark Lord.' This might be the longest book in the series, but don’t let that put you off Harry Potter fans! Every single page is bursting with action, blasts from the past and plenty of challenges including a crime charge against Harry for ‘underage magic’ that causes some serious turmoil. Despite these struggles, there’s plenty of humour to keep readers entertained from start to finish. Dark times have come to Hogwarts. After the Dementors' attack on his cousin Dudley, Harry Potter knows that Voldemort will stop at nothing to find him. There are many who deny the Dark Lord's return, but Harry is not alone: a secret order gathers at Grimmauld Place to fight against the Dark forces. Harry must allow Professor Snape to teach him how to protect himself from Voldemort's savage assaults on his mind. But they are growing stronger by the day and Harry is running out of time.
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
There it was, hanging in the sky above the school: the blazing green skull with a serpent tongue, the mark Death Eaters left behind whenever they had entered a building... wherever they had murdered... Bring on the prequel. In book six of the collection, fans will read about romance, more missions, old friends and another year at Hogwarts but Harry soon finds himself at the centre of more havoc as Hogwarts is no longer a safe place for its students. Meetings with Dumbledore are the basis for this story as the plot truly thickens but readers will have to read on to discover what each meeting is about. When Dumbledore arrives at Privet Drive one summer night to collect Harry Potter, his wand hand is blackened and shrivelled, but he does not reveal why. Secrets and suspicion are spreading through the wizarding world, and Hogwarts itself is not safe. Harry is convinced that Malfoy bears the dark mark: there is a Death Eater amongst them. Harry will need powerful magic and true friends as he explores voldemort's darkest secrets, and Dumbledore prepares him to face his destiny...
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
'Give me Harry Potter,' said Voldemort's voice, 'and none shall be harmed. Give me Harry Potter, and I shall leave the school untouched. Give me Harry Potter, and you will be rewarded.' The last in the series but by no means is it the least. Readers will learn about love, evil, fear and of course more magic. Thoughts and feelings of key characters are portrayed with plenty of unexpected twists. But it wouldn’t be the ultimate finish if Harry and his friends didn’t find a way to destroy Voldemort. So does the final book live up to everything it’s meant to? There’s only one way to find out. As he climbs into the sidecar of Hagrid's motorbike and takes to the skies, leaving Privet Drive for the last time, Harry Potter knows that Lord Voldemort and the Death Eaters are not far behind. The protective charm that has kept Harry safe until now is broken, but he cannot keep hiding. The Dark Lord is breathing fear into everything Harry loves, and to stop him Harry will have to find and destroy the remaining Horcreuxes. The final battle must begin - Harry must stand and face his enemy...
