i would purchase from this seller again. got my item on time just as i ordered it. no surprises.
Also in this book, unexpected events conclude with one of my favorite characters dieing making the ending have a very sad tone.Anyone who likes suspense and action should read this book (and the series). From the beginning, this thrilling adventure entangles you and never lets you go until the very last page. The Half-Blood Prince is somewhat of a build up to The Deathly Hallows. There is a great deal of suspense throughout the book, making the book a very fast read.
In addition, Dumbledore returns to the school with a charred, shrunken hand. Harry, Hermione, and Ginny are included in this group. Snape has gained Dumbledore's trust in recent years and accepts the job. Professor Slughorn, a former teacher at the school, obtains Snape's former position as Potions Teacher. The book is darker than any of the prequels.
The person who previously owned the book, the "Half-Blood Prince" remains an important mystery in the novel. Harry has survived several former attacks by Voldemort and is prophesied to be the "chosen one" to kill him.At Hogwarts, life is grimmer than it has ever been. I recommend this novel 100%. Can Snape be trusted. And, finally, who is the "Half-Blood Prince".
The reader can easily decipher the story and follow the characters as they grow emotionally. The new Minister of Magic, Rufus Scrimgeour warns the muggle Prime Minister of Voldemort's return. Slughorn is immediately fond like to any student with supreme magical abilities and invites them to his parties. Harry also begins his first serious relationship with a girl. Professor Snape replaces Professor Umbridge as Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince follows 16-year-old Harry Potter through his sixth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
He receives high marks in this class for the first time, sealing his position as Slughorn's favorite student. Rowling has written a world-class novel: a mix of action, adventure, romance, and deceit, but has given this novel a scarier twist. The number one target, of course, is the protagonist, Harry Potter. On the Quidditch team, Harry continues his position as seeker and Ron becomes the new keeper. Lastly, Malfoy is bestowed an important task by Lord Voldemort, which Harry overhears in the Hogwarts Express. The book begins on a serious note.
What is Malfoy's task. He finds a used potions book with written in tips and spells on how to make the best potions in the quickest amount of time. They continuously use the Pensieve as a means to discover who Lord Voldemort was as a child and how he came to be the evil man that he is now. Also, Dumbledore gives private lessons on Harry on how to defeat the Dark Lord. Instead of solving mysteries set forth by previous novels, this one presents several new questions. Read this novel to find out the answers to these questions, you will be in for a surprise.
What will learning about Voldemort's childhood do to help Harry defeat him. Why is Dumbledore's hand charred and shrunken. Voldemort is ready to kill on impulse and should be avoided by both members of the magic community and members of the muggle community. This is probably the biggest highlight of the school year for Harry.As usual, J.K. Harry has no idea what the task is, but is convinced that he needs to stop him by any means possible.On a lighter note, Harry is enjoying his sixth year at Hogwarts.
This was the one job that Dumbledore refused to give him in the past because of his former connections to Lord Voldemort. He refuses to tell anyone why this has happened.
Starting with this book and continuing into the next, the reader feels the despair that afflicts the good wizard community. With every Harry Potter installment, I find myself saying the new installment is my favorite of the series so far. I thoroughly enjoyed this novel, even if it was a bit gloomy. It has some similarities to World War II Germany. Book 6 is no exception, and I think it is a credit to the author. The hopelessness and despair have increased in order for the readers to feel the plight of the characters.
Ms. There are smatterings of happy and funny moments, but for the most this book is pretty gloomy. A few new colorful characters are introduced as well as the enmity between Potter/Snape grows deeper and darker.
Rowling has created another well-crafted adventure/mystery to the Harry Potter series. Just like many 16-year-olds of this difficult age, some of Harry's, Ron's, and Hermoine's decisions are completely self-serving, unethical and, dare I say, meanspirited. Ms.
Also, their puerile mood swings are very convincing and believable. Rowling has crafted a cliffhanger that easily will propel me into reading the last installment. The reader will come to understand why and how Lord Voldemort became the evil, obsessed antagonist of the wizardry world.
The author did a fine job of depicting the main teenage characters in an age-appropriate manner.
