New Releases by J.K. Rowling

The fifth book in the beloved, bestselling Harry Potter series, now illustrated in brilliant full color. There is a door at the end of a silent corridor. And it''s haunting Harry Potter''s dreams. Why else would he be waking in the middle of the night, screaming in terror? It''s not just the upcoming O.W.L. exams; a new teacher with a personality like poisoned honey; a venomous, disgruntled house-elf; or even the growing threat of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. Now Harry Potter is faced with the unreliability of the very government of the magical world and the impotence of the authorities at Hogwarts. Despite this (or perhaps because of it), he finds depth and strength in his friends, beyond what even he knew; boundless loyalty; and unbearable sacrifice. Experience book five in the Harry Potter series illustrated in brilliant full color for the first time. With its oversized format, high-quality paper, ribbon bookmark, and color on nearly every page, this edition is the perfect gift for Harry Potter fans and book lovers of all ages.
