Harry Potter is due to start his fifth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizadry.

Review
The fifth book in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series follows the darkest year yet for our young wizard, who finds himself knocked down a peg or three after the events of last year. Somehow, over the summer, gossip (usually traced back to the magic world's newspaper, the Daily Prophet) has turned Harry's tragic and heroic encounter with Voldemort at the Triwizard Tournament into an excuse to ridicule and discount the teen. Even Professor Dumbledore, headmaster of the school, has come under scrutiny by the Ministry of Magic, which refuses to officially acknowledge the terrifying truth that Voldemort is back. Enter a particularly loathsome new character: the toadlike and simpering ("hem, hem") Dolores Umbridge, senior undersecretary to the Minister of Magic, who takes over the vacant position of Defense Against Dark Arts teacher--and in no time manages to become the High Inquisitor of Hogwarts, as well. Life isn't getting any easier for Harry Potter. With an overwhelming course load as the fifth years prepare for their Ordinary Wizarding Levels examinations (O.W.Ls), devastating changes in the Gryffindor Quidditch team lineup, vivid dreams about long hallways and closed doors, and increasing pain in his lightning-shaped scar, Harry's resilience is sorely tested.
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, more than any of the four previous novels in the series, is a coming-of-age story. Harry faces the thorny transition into adulthood, when adult heroes are revealed to be fallible, and matters that seemed black-and-white suddenly come out in shades of gray. Gone is the wide-eyed innocent, the whiz kid of Sorcerer's Stone. Here we have an adolescent who's sometimes sullen, often confused (especially about girls), and always self-questioning. Confronting death again, as well as a startling prophecy, Harry ends his year at Hogwarts exhausted and pensive. Readers, on the other hand, will be energized as they enter yet again the long waiting period for the next title in the marvelous, magical series. (Ages 9 and older) --Emilie Coulter

Store description
Bücher erzählen Geschichten. Sie bringen uns auf neue Gedanken, eröffnen andere Perspektiven, vermitteln Wissen und lassen uns die Welt manchmal ein kleines Stück anders sehen. Manche unterhalten uns für ein paar Stunden, andere begleiten uns über Jahre – und einige verändern etwas. Genau dieser Gedanke steckt hinter Buchpunk. Wir sind ein unabhängiger Onlinehandel für gebrauchte Bücher und möchten dafür sorgen, dass gute Bücher nicht im Regal vergessen werden, sondern weiterwandern – von Mensch zu Mensch, von Gedanke zu Gedanke. Unser stetig wachsendes Sortiment ist so vielfältig wie die Menschen, die lesen: Romane und Krimis stehen neben Sach- und Fachbüchern, Kinder- und Jugendliteratur neben Büchern über Geschichte, Philosophie, Wirtschaft, Naturwissenschaften oder Ratgebern. Dazu kommen ältere und vergriffene Ausgaben, fremdsprachige Bücher und immer wieder Titel, nach denen man vielleicht schon lange gesucht hat – oder von denen man bis eben noch gar nicht wusste, dass man sie sucht. Bei Buchpunk verbinden wir die Idee des klassischen Gebrauchtbuchhandels mit einem modernen, sorgfältig organisierten Onlinehandel. Jedes angebotene Exemplar befindet sich tatsächlich in unserem Bestand. Wir achten auf nachvollziehbare Zustandsangaben, faire Preise, eine zuverlässige Abwicklung und einen sorgfältigen Versand. Dabei ist ein gebrauchtes Buch für uns kein Produkt zweiter Wahl. Im Gegenteil: Ein gutes Buch verliert seinen Inhalt nicht, nur weil es bereits gelesen wurde. Wissen, Ideen, Inspiration und gute Geschichten lassen sich immer wieder neu entdecken. Vielleicht finden Sie bei Buchpunk einfach Ihre nächste Lektüre. Vielleicht ein lange gesuchtes Buch. Und vielleicht eines, das eine Veränderung anstößt. Buchpunk – Bücher weiterdenken.…
