Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Author: J.K. Rowling

Reviewed by : Loh Li Sin

Following the two previous series of Harry Potter, this series, Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban is the most interesting of all. This book would not fail to make you carry it everywhere!!

This is the Harry’s third year in Hogwarts as he once again set his foot on the school he treated as ‘home’. He had survived the murderous attack of the fearful Dark Lord for the last two years and I must say he is really lucky to reach the age of thirteen. However, being Harry Potter, he is certainly never going to have any peace growing up.

His hopes for a peaceful year are once again demolished when a prisoner escaped from Azkaban.

In my opinion, the book has much more interesting details, which the movie failed to showcase. For those who are fascinated by the Quidditch matches, you will not be disappointed. There are many more Quidditch matches that appear in this book. Also, some parts of the dialogues spoken by different characters were interpreted differently by the movie.

Many readers commented that the book is more interesting and I do agree. However, some of you might prefer to watch a movie of three hours then to read a book that might take you a week!
