Kirkus Reviews July 15th, 2003 The Potternaut rolls on, picking up more size than speed but propelling 15-year-old Harry through more hard tests of character and magical ability. Rowling again displays her ability to create both likable and genuinely scary characters--most notable among the latter being a pair of Dementors who accost Harry in a dark alley in the opening chapter. Even more horrible, Ministry of Magic functionary Dolores Umbridge descends upon Hogwarts with a tinkly laugh, a taste in office decor that runs to kitten paintings, and the authority, soon exercised, to torture students, kick Harry off the Quidditch team, fire teachers, and even to challenge Dumbledore himself. Afflicted with sudden fits of adolescent rage, Harry also has worries, from upcoming exams and recurrent eerie dreams to the steadfast refusal of the Magical World''s bureaucracy to believe that Voldemort has returned. Steadfast allies remain, including Hermione, whose role here is largely limited to Chief Explainer, and a ragtag secret order of adults formed to protect him from dangers, which they characteristically keep to themselves until he finds out about them the hard way. Constructed, like GOBLET OF FIRE, of multiple, weakly connected plot lines and rousing, often hilarious set pieces, all set against a richly imagined backdrop, this involves its characters once again in plenty of adventures while moving them a step closer to maturity. And it''s still impossible to predict how it''s all going to turn out. (Fiction. 12-15) Bulletin of the Center for Children''s Books September 2003 Harry Potter''s latest adventure reveals an admirable hero somewhat the worse for wear: his grief at the death of Cedric, his fear of (and connection to) the evil Lord Voldemort, and his emotional distance from Professor Dumbledore combine to make Harry a bit short-tempered, a bit short-sighted, and a bit more recognizably human. Rowling eases readers back into Harry''s world-and-Harry''s precarious existence-with nary a ripple: the suburban peace of the Dursleys'' manicured lives is shattered by the intrusion of dementors, sent by a rogue in the Ministry of Magic and seeking to do Harry serious injury. A wizard rescue party retrieves Harry from the world of Muggles and sets him down amidst the Order of the Phoenix, a secret society that plots Voldemort''s final downfall. With an escalating love life, academic complications at school, and a Ministry of Magic determined to ignore the obvious, Harry is in an adolescent uproar. Revelations about Sirius Black, Professor Snape, and Harry''s late father cause the boy to question all he holds true, and his confusion clouds his judgment. A roaring set of practical jokes by Fred and George Weasley against a politically appointed, obnoxious new professor at Hogwarts lightens the tone just in time for the Order''s tragic confrontation with Voldemort and his malevolent minions. Rowling cheerfully turns her own conventions on th@ir cars, and the result is a surprising and enjoyable ride. While Harry''s much-touted love interest fizzles before it fires, familiar characters achieve a bit more depth. Ginny Weasley starts to come into her own, Hermione employs a dryly wicked wit, and Dumbledore reveals, if not feet, at least a little toe of clay. It''s no longer quite clear that all will work out in the end; the lines are being drawn, but, as exemplified by Percy Weasley, not everyone is on the right side. Rowling has managed to make Harry and his fate a bit less predictable, which, in the fifth of a seven-volume series, is a very good thing. JMD Horn Book Magazine (September 1, 2003; 0-439-35806-X) (Intermediate, Middle School) This review is much like the proverbial tree falling in an uninhabited forest: unlikely to make a sound. But for the record, HP5 is the best in the series since Azkaban, and far superior to the turgid HP4. With Rowling once again f

This book was suppose to have the book jacket and when I received it, it doesn't have it. Plus the package that the books came in were torn open. I really really want the jacket that was shown with the book. That's part of the reason why I bought the book in the first place!! It's a birthday gift, but now it's not. How sad.

    20 years later, still essential to the Harry Potter saga.

    Even if this is the longest book in the Harry Potter series, it doesn't feel that long. Everything here happens for a reason, and even the most inconsequential episodes help build Rowling's characters. And I feel it's appropiate that the longest book is the one where the school is taken over by the overly sacharine tyrant that is Dolores Umbridge; a character so vile that you will end up hating her more than Voldemort (at least for a while). If Goblet gave us the starting point for the second half of the series, Order deepens our understanding of what it was like the first time he was around and how it affected people, and how the wizard community is taking his return.

  • Harry Potter -- Love Or Investment

    How do you write a review of one in a series of the most popular books ever published in modern history? How do you write a review of a book that has been published in every written language and read around the world? You don't! These books are being read and loved as our imaginations are being set free to roam this wonderful world created by J.K. Rowlands. The Order of the Phoenix finds a young Harry Potter entering the confusing age between child and man-hood. He's angry, pensive, emotionally mixed-up and half the wizarding world believes him to be an attention seeking liar. What more could go wrong? Plenty, when the most powerful wizard in the magical world is back and looking to finish off "the boy who lived". The Order of the Phoenix, while not my favorite of the series (However, I ...

  • Rowling fails to deliver like she usually does

    This was the only book in the Harry Potter Series that I would not rate Excellent. I feel that she finally fell into the "middle book funk" that plagues so many other book writers and movie producers. My theory on avoiding the "funk" is to provide the characters a few clues they can work for and give them some small victories to show they are at least making progress for their pain. It worked in JK's other books, so why she chose to change her formula here is beyond me. The only "victory" won here is that the wizarding community finally knows Voldermort is back. Small consolation, since those that can do anything about it (the Order of the Pheonix) already believed Harry. The Mininstry of Magic, in an attempt to keep Harry Potter quiet, assign Delores Umbridge to the school. I ...

  • Great Way to Share Reading with the Family or Traveling

    I purchased this Audio book set about a month ago, having already read the books, and wanting to share the book with my daughter. I love that in each volume it is the same reader, so that you get used to the different voices he uses for each character, as well as his reading style. It's a great way to sit down as a family and share reading. Just pop in the cd's, and the kids can read along with the CD's, helping to not only enrich their lives through reading, but aiding them with pronunciations, learning new words, and guiding them into a world of imagination. I find that the new versions you find in stores are a bit pricey. Also, I was hoping for a bit more from the CD's when first listening to them, possibly some sound effects to make it more real, and I do find that some of the ...

  • Darker side of the Series begins

    Goblet of Fire brought a surprise dark ending - this takes it a bit further. This book goes through the whole gamut of emotions for Harry and his friends - Harry is shown to be vulnerable to emotions that he cannot control (not entirely his own fault but you will see) and this book portrays him quite a bit as trying to get things done on his own (a preview of things to come or things to change - who knows). This book goes into the emotional side of Harry and the roller coaster ride it can be for a teen and also reasons highlighted at the end of the book. New characters are introduced and you get a clearer picture of alliances and where people stand in the war against Voldemort. He also finds out how costly it is to not listen to Dumbledore as another person close to him is ...
