Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Book Description

The war against Voldemort is not going well; even the Muggles have been affected. Harry receives some extraordinary help in Potions from the mysterious Half-Blood Prince, and with Dumbledore's guidance, he seeks out the full, complex story of the boy who became Lord Voldemort--and thus finds what may be his only vulnerability.
Book 6 in the "Harry Potter" series

A New York Times Bestseller

In the fifth and most recent book, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," the last chapter, titled "The Second War Begins," started:

"'In a brief statement Friday night, Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge confirmed that He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named has returned to this country and is active once more. "It is with great regret that I must confirm that the wizard styling himself Lord -- well, you know who I mean -- is alive among us again," said Fudge.'"

"Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" takes up the story of Harry Potter's sixth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry at this point in the midst of the storm of this battle of good and evil.

The author has already said that the Half-Blood Prince is neither Harry nor Voldemort. And most importantly, the opening chapter of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" has been brewing in J. K. Rowling's mind for 13 years.

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince: good read  
By shankar, 14/07/2009 15:37:11

All you Harry Potter fans are bound to be super thrilled at the hype that surrounds the latest of the J.K. Rowling releases - 'Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince'. The novel is set during Harry Potter's sixth year at Hogwarts and explores Lord Voldemort's past. The final battle is lurking in the vicinity and you must stop by, to read all the action, Harry is gearing up for.

This being his adolescent stage, offers abundant scope for an emerging romance coupled with confusions and conflict resolutions that are so very characteristic. The half blood prince gives magic potions that help him deal with the new shades of life that are slowly taking him by surprise.

In the meanwhile, Harry seeks out the complete story of the boy who became Lord Voldemort. With this discovery, he finds out about his hidden weakness. And if you thought, that was all; there is more to the plot than that. The wait becomes all the more worthwhile as the new Harry Potter series is readying to hit book stalls with anticipated aplomb. The much acclaimed book is worth every word of praise and is set to leave readers asking for more.
