‘You are sharing the Dark Lord's thoughts and emotions. The Headmaster thinks it inadvisable for this to continue. He wishes me to teach you how to close your mind to the Dark Lord.'

Dark times have come to Hogwarts. After the Dementors' attack on his cousin Dudley, Harry Potter knows that Voldemort will stop at nothing to find him. There are many who deny the Dark Lord's return, but Harry is not alone: a secret order gathers at Grimmauld Place to fight against the Dark forces. Harry must allow Professor Snape to teach him how to protect himself from Voldemort's savage assaults on his mind. But they are growing stronger by the day and Harry is running out of time...

Having become classics of our time, the Harry Potter stories never fail to bring comfort and escapism. With their message of hope, belonging and the enduring power of truth and love, the story of the Boy Who Lived continues to delight generations of new listeners.

My pandemic reading

Reviewed in Canada on February 9, 2021

Verified Purchase

So last spring, early into the pandemic, I decided I was going to start reading fiction again, which I haven't done for about 15-20 years. The first Harry Potter ebook was available for free with an Amazon Prime account so I decided to read it. Then I decided to carry on. All great, entertaining books, and I'm disappointed that I didn't read them to my daughter when she was younger. I may have laughed a little when selecting "How old was the person you got this book for?" Amazon, I'm a little disappointed in you that there is no option for "middle-aged" or "mid 40s"

Font size and spacing way too small

Reviewed in Canada on September 4, 2020

Verified Purchase

Not really liking this. The book is nice to look at and the story is great, the the font size and spacing make this book really difficult to read. Oddly, the first 3 books in the series were great in this regard, but this one and Goblet of Fire are too hard to read. Might end up going digital for the rest of the series with my Kobo. Too bad, as the experience of sitting down with my daughter and reading these from her growing "collection" was really fun for both of us. I'm sure we'll enjoy the digital versions just fine, but a physical book was a better fit for this.

I made a deal with my 10 year old daughter. I would order this book if she finsihed reading the first 4. I also said I would read them as well to see what all the excitement was about. I read the first 4 books very quickly and loved them. We ended up reading the Phoenix together, with 2 different bookmarks!! I couldn't put it down!! I finished first! I am very impressed at the way this book was written - my 10 year old loves it and it held my interest very well as well which says quite a bit for an author who writes "kids" books! This series is amazing. I cannot wait for the next book. The prophecy at the end of the book sets up the next book and any book after really - a fight between good and evil. A lot is explained in this book. I would read it again and probably will while waiting for the next book. Hopefully we won't have to wait to long!!

Wonderful seires, but this misses a step

Reviewed in Canada on June 24, 2003

Part of what made the Harry Potter series so amazing was the mystery. There was always an unmasking, clues all around and funny subplots to tide you through. Book four was the height of this concept, with the International Quidditch match and the Triwizard Tournament, it was action packed. Book five however is not. There is no mystery, there is a sub-plot about a series of dreams that really goes nowhere, could have been left out of the book. I raced to the end of the book to find out who dies, and even that was disappointing. I'm not sure if the person is really dead or not and it was definatley not an emotional departure. I was honestly hoping for more.

Love The Order of The Phoenix. JK Rowling just keeps getting better and better keeping us wanting more of the story. Harry Potter has become a part of our lives, our children's lives and will become a tradition and go-to series for families for generations to come. Thank you JK for sharing your wonderful story with us

The series moves foward albeit rather slowly as Harry becomes an angst-ridden teenager

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 27, 2018

Verified Purchase

Well, I think any reviewer daring to criticise a Harry Potter story is on a hiding to nothing, but honestly this one was a bit of a struggle. The first three books are relatively fast moving and suit a young audience, and obviously much shorter. Number 4, The Goblet of Fire, is over 600 pages, and was too much of a challenge for my 9 year old boy who lost interest halfway through. I am determined to finish the series, having come this far, and managed to plow through all 800 pages here.
The story in this episode is rather slow developing, and frankly the editor must have been asleep on the job. There are numerous scenes that could have been removed and offer little to advance the story. It was really quite repetitive in places, and there are some many scenes that I felt I'd read before in other episodes. In this book Harry becomes an angst-ridden and often angry teenager whilst Hermione and Ron offer some stability, and Snape shows his usual over the top nastiness.
Although the plotting of the Prisoner of Azkhaban (Vol. 3) was well done and quite clever, I thought the Goblet of Fire was a little creaky in this regard, but here it becomes almost silly. There is no credible explanation why The Ministry turn against Dumbledore so spectacularly and the actions of Dolores Umbridge seem unbelievable. Also the sinister Death Eaters seem comically inept in the climatic scenes. The later books seem to me that the series isn't well mapped out and we are introduced to some characters and details that had no mention in previous books.
However, I guess I shouldn't lose sight of the fact that this is basically a series for children who won't over analyse the plotting. But then at 800 pages of text that is sometimes slow moving and repetitive, maybe JKR shouldn't either!
This is my least favourite in the series so far; Prisoner of Azkhaban is the one I most enjoyed.

Relationships, Loss and Witchcraft

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 31, 2018

I am 78 but I read all the Potter books and love the characters. I had to keep up with the grandchildren, so thank you JK Rowling for writing such an interesting series. I love the imagination and inventiveness involved in these stories. They are all page-turners, and I couldn't wait to read the next story in the series.... This one is a little bit sad, but so much happens that I cant wait to see what happens in the next book...
JK Rowling must go down as one of our best story writers for children. The books are a large chunk of a young boys life, peppered with witchcraft, and the skills necessary to fight the dark side. Hermione and Ron, Harry's friends are an essential part of the stories. The relationship between the 3 is absorbing and intriguing. Its as much about relationships as it is about witchcraft!

Beware different narrator - US version

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 30, 2018

Verified Purchase

I searched for audio version narrated by Stephen Fry and it took me to audible edition. I changed it to audio CD and placed order. When it came it is the US version narrated by Jim Dale. If you zoom in on pic it does say this in blurry writing at bottom of cover but nowhere in the written description did it tell me by changing format the narrator had changed. Jim Dale may be fine but we've been listening to Fry so have ordered his version from elsewhere as no idea which you get through third parties on Amazon. In fairness returns are easy with Amazon.

One of the best books in the series

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 8, 2019

Verified Purchase

This episode deals with Harry’s fifth year at Hogwarts. Harry is traumatised and at a rock-bottom situation being isolated all summer from every person that is close to him. Through this he discovers the strength of his friendships and their loyalty as the Ordinary Wizarding Level exams are looming for Harry and his friends.
However it’s He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named that poses the main threat and a growing presence of darkness - a threat that neither the Hogwarts school authorities nor the magical government can arrest.

Many characters are cast in a new light as they grow up, not least Neville Longbottom. There are interesting new characters, like the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Umbridge is an annoying new head teacher who ignites the rise of an wizard resistance movement. And there is a surprise entry on the Gryffindor Quidditch team

The last few chapters tie many loose ends from previous books, making it a very worthwhile read. Though the bad-ass duel already glues you to the pages.

It’s brilliant book. My daughter explained to me this is so because in the previous books all characters we’re either good or bad, now even the good ones have flaws like James Potter and Dumbledore. Quite a thing to notice for a 9 year old. It’s 870 pages but our Potter-obsessed daughter wouldn’t have minded if it was longer.
