Harry Potter, the Adventure Concludes
Better watch out Muggles! After taking over the movie theaters last week the legions of Harry Potter fans are about to descend on your local bookstores. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the seventh and final entry into the series by J.K. Rowlings is scheduled to be released at 12:01 am on July 21. Many bookstores around the country are staying open late to hold Harry Potter parties and promote the book’s release. Will Harry die? Will Voldermort be defeated? Will Ron and Hermoine get together? Will this be a satisfactory conlcusion to the series? All these questions, hopefully, will be answered in a few days.

J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is the sixth entry and, if we believe the author, the next to last book in the Harry Potter series. So how does it rank? Well I have enjoyed the series for the most part, but was disappointed with Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix which seemed hastily written to appease the publishers and fans rather than craft a good story. After reading this installment however I was once again happily transported back into the world of witches and wizards, goblins and house-elves, and a wonderful school for magic. The book recaptures the magic and mystery as we are thrust once more into the world of Harry Potter.
