In HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX, the last chapter, titled "The Second War Begins," started: 'In a brief statement Friday night, Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge confirmed that He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named has returned to this country and is active once more. "It is with great regret that I must confirm that the wizard styling himself Lord--well, you know who I mean--is alive among us again," said Fudge.' HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE takes up the story of Harry Potter's sixth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry at this point in the midst of the storm of this battle of good and evil.Includes 32-page insert on special paper at the end of the book featuring near scale reproductions of Mary GrandPre's interior art, as well as never-before-seen full-color frontispiece art. Foil-stamped cardboard slipcase with blind-stamped cloth case book. Full-color endpapers with jacket art from regular edition, luxurious foil, and wraparound jacket featuring exclusive, suitable-for-framing art from Mary GrandPre.

"If Harry grew up in the last book, here he becomes a man, learning the true impact of the last book's prophecy, and the importance of love as the antidote to fear."

Publishers Weekly Annex, 07/18/2005

"[T]he achievement of the Potter books is the same as that of the great classics of children's literature, from the Oz novels to THE LORD OF THE RINGS: the creation of a richly imagined and utterly singular world, as detailed, as improbable and as mortal as our own."
