Product Description Harry Potter has to sneak back to Hogwarts, after accidentally inflating his horrible Aunt Petunia. But once there everyone is whispering about a prizoner who has escaped from the famous wizard prizon, Azkaban. His name is Sirius Black, and as a follower of Lord Voldemort he is determined to track Harry Potter down -- even if it means laying siege to the very walls of Hogwarts! Customer reviews Azkaban Could Turn You A Lurid Shade Of Pale  by .. Alex Hutchinson (Carver, MA)
The third book in the Harry Potter series turns a lurid shade of pale as three very important figures are brought into view. Sirius Black escapes from Askaban quickly becoming the wizarding world's most wanted. His introduction is met with ambiguity from Harry who is equal parts curious, scared and brave. Professor Lupin is the new dark arts teacher who has a fear of full moons and a past as one of Harry's father's former childhood friends. The third figure is actually of collective of wraith like monstrosities known as Dementors. How could you not be chilled by a creature that feeds on a persons fear and can literally suck out your soul with a kiss of death.
Azkaban brought forth all of the fun one can derive from magical misery. The movie did a good job in copying the books mood. Both were thoroughly entertaining.
A very good read. by .. Norman Strojny (western desert of Utah)
Well, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is longer than the first two HP books, but not better. I suppose that we have lost a bit of our wonder at Harry's world, but this book seems to be a slight let down from the high levels we enjoyed in the first two books. Nevertheless, we have a totally different start to this book than we had in the previous books.
Rowling continues to feed our curiosities by supplying new and different experiences and new twists and turns in the HP story. With the introduction to Sirius Black, and of dementors, to the main plot, Rowling takes the HP series towards a more mature tone and loses a bit of the whimsey that the first two books had. I thik Rowling does a very good job at telling a very good story while letting Harry start to grow up.
The finale of this book is long and different from the pattern of the first two books. Among other things, we learn of deeper and more powerful magical practices.
I may seem grumpy about some aspects of this book, but I was entranced by the author's abilities to tell a suspense-filled and adventurous tale, fit for adolescents of all ages.
I recommend this book.
Brilliant Sequel by .. Deborah E. Allen (Laurel, Md USA)
J.K. Rowlings never lets her readers down Harry's quest to be happy stays alive in this book. Also, he gets to meet the only family he has left which makes Harry very Happy at the end of this sequel!!!!
The magic of Harry Potter by .. Mercedes (Colorado, USA)
I read this book a few years ago, when the the thrill of Harry was in it's prime. I've seen the movie more times than I can count and I must say the movie is excellent but not as good as the book. I've just reread this book and can't beleive all I had forgotten. It's truly a page turner. From the start when Harry spots the Grim to when Mr Weasley warns Harry of Sirius Black's escape and hunt for Harry the reader is hooked. The Maurader's Map is a great addition to the Invisibility Cloak. The first 2 books were good, but you truly don't get into Harry until this book. Ron and Hermione's relationship is beginning to bud. Hermione is truly the goody goody in this installment. There were times I was mad at her with Ron and Harry. Getting the history of Harry's father's friends helped the story advance with background. This book also helps paint the picture of Snape and his hatered for Harry. The introduction of the Patronus is excellent. It's just as amazing in the book and the movie did a great job of reproducing it. All in all, I loved this book and recommend it to everyone who enjoys magic and fantasy reads.

Product Description Specially produced British collectible edition of the third volume in the Harry Potter Series. THE most collectible volume in the series due to a print error and a limited print run. "Joanne Rowling" is printed as author on the copyright page, not "J.K. Rowling" as preferred by the publicist. This was not corrected until later printings. The first print run (or impression) was limited to approximately 4,000 copies (some dealers say even fewer). First printings are identified by the presence of a full number line 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 on the copyright page. The second print run also contains the "Joanne Rowling" credit and was also relatively small, making it an affordable alternative to the first printing for many collectors. Prices decline with subsequent printings and editions.
Product details: Bright green cloth-bound boards with gilt lettering, gilt-stamped JK Rowling signature & gilted page-ends; pictorial onlay; full-color harlequin endpapers; unique typeset, illustrations and paper quality all make this a valuable addition to any collector's library. Ships well-packaged and protected. Related Search : prisoner azkaban , edition harry , harry potter  |

Es Harry en espanol! by .. renee bova-collis (VA)
English is my first language and as an adult I love reading the Harry Potter books. Because I'm learning Spanish, who better to practice on than Harry?! The book arrived in excellent condition and very quickly. Quite pleased with my purchase experience.
Qué Bueno by .. J. M. Lake (Naperville, IL)
Este libro es problamente lo mejor en la serie de Harry Potter. Es bien para aprender pruablas nuevas.
Bought this to help me learn spanish... by .. MK Greevey (Pasadena, CA)
Like all the other books in the Harry Potter series, this book is well written and entertaining. While I can't speak about the quality of the translation (I'm not particularly proficient in Spanish yet), this book has proved useful in helping me to learn Spanish due to the fact that it is geared towards a younger audience and thus for the most part has a fairly simple vocabulary.
Harry Potter y el Prisionero de Azkaban by .. Pau Gry ()
Definitivamente mi favorito de los seis. Es, a mi parecer, el climax de la serie completa: cuando te enteras de cosas, cosas, y más cosas. Cuando todo -o bueno, "todo" con Rowling es como al 15% de el real "todo"- hace click. Es cuando Harry pasa de ser un niño, a un adolescente. Me es imposible expresarlo mejor, porque de esa manera terminaría en un mes, pero léanlo y suerte.
