Review:
This book focuses on "sport" - first the Quidditch World Cup and then the Triwizard Tournament - so much I actually miss some of the Hogwarts everyday life. But as always it's an unpredictable plot introducing Mad-Eye Moody among other soon to be important characters and bringing Voldemort back in full force, which bodes "well" for the last three books
I've read all seven books in Danish at least twice each. Now I'm going through the lot in English - in the right order that is - and have just finished this one. Okay, I have to admit that I couldn't wait for the Deathly Hallows to be published in Danish, and it was the first of them I read in English first. Even though this one is worthy of five stars, it's not the best one in my opinion. Harry Potter and my Subjective Ranking:
1. Prisoner of Azkaban.
2. Half-Blood Prince. (only in Danish)
3. Deathly Hallows.
4. Order of the Phoenix. (only in Danish)
5. Goblet of Fire.
6. Chamber of Secrets.
7. Philosopher's Stone.
If you've seen the movies and you think it's about time you read the books, I'd say, you may - though I wouldn't recommend it - skip the first one. Basically I consider Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (or Sorcerer's Stone in US version) an introduction to the main characters and this fascinating and captivating parallel world of magic; having seen the movies this is already taken care of. In general the movies leave out a lot of details, change parts and even put in stuff that you won't find in the books. So I'm afraid there's no way around it but to read No. 2 through to 7 in sequence.
The stories, plots, people, personalities and history etc. is so perfectly interwoven through all seven books, with very few loose ends (when you've finished) and almost no gaps and mistakes. Speaking of mistakes: Why can't Harry see the Thestrals now he has seen Cedric die?
Anyway, this is yet another super-book by J.K. Rowling - I'm tempted to say "spellbinding".
Every time I travel by train I expect "my Harry Potter" to pop up in my head. Maybe you have to travel to and from Manchester for such a thing to happen?
