Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

Short Summary

By Webmaster David

What if you spent the first ten years of your life locked in a cupboard under the stairs and treated like crud by your evil aunt and uncle. What if you were constantly bullied by their abominable son. That’s how life is for Harry Potter until the day a letter arrives for him, inviting him to a magical school called Hogwarts. Faster than you can say Quidditch, Harry is whisked away to this school for Witchcraft and Wizardry. Here he meets his best friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. He learns of a plot to steal something that is being hidden in the school and they suspect the Potions Master Snape. Harry has a huge destiny awaiting him, if he can survive the encounter...

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

Short Summary

By Webmaster David

Harry returns to Hogwarts this year after being warned by a house elf that terrible things were going to happen. Terrible things indeed start happening as someone or something starts turning all the students into stone. We learn that Harry is a parselmouth like the founder of Slytherin was and everybody suspects him of opening the chamber and releasing whatever lay inside. Harry must discover who is behind the attacks before it takes down all the muggle-borns and forces Dumbledore to close Hogwarts. The actual culprit, however, is the biggest surprise of all...

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

A Short Summary

By Webmaster David

Harry Potter is back again for another year at Hogwarts, but not before things shake up again in Number Privet Drive. Harry must flee after he has an accident involving his Aunt Marge being blown up. He is picked up by the Knight Bus and learns that a psychopathic murderer has escaped from the wizard prison Azkaban. On the day before Harry returns to school, he learns that Sirius Black escaped in order to kill Harry. Now, Harry is not safe. Not even within the walls of his magical school and surrounded by his friends because they’re just may be a traitor in their midst. Harry faces his most dangerous year yet, with Dementors trying to suck his soul, a crazy fortune teller who can’t stop predicting his death, and a madman that’s trying to kill him. Hopefully, with the help of Harry’s friends, and a DADA teacher with a big secret, they will be able to survive the year and catch The Prisoner of Azkaban.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

A Short Summary

By Webmaster David

Harry Potter gets the chance of a lifetime. The Weasleys pick him up two weeks early from Number 4 Privet Drive so he can go to the Quidditch World Cup. At the Cup, Death Eaters (Voldemort followers), attack the muggles at the camps. It is believed that Voldemort may once more be stirring since there are already strange disappearances. Upon arrival back at school, Harry learns that Hogwarts will be hosting The Triwizard Tournament, a competition involving two other wizarding schools. It is a competition that hasn't been held for over a century due to extremely high death rates. When the other two schools, Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, arrive at Hogwarts they find out who the one champion from each school will be. In a surprise twist, somehow Harry's name comes out of the Goblet along with Cedric Diggory's. Now he must get through and survie each task. Once again, he is in for a year of huge twists and surprises, as is the rest of the wizarding world.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

A Short Summary

By Webmaster David

Lord Voldemort has returned, but the Ministry of Magic refuses to believe it and is being outright hostile to anyone who does, particularly Harry Potter. The few who are sympathetic to him create the Order of the Phoenix, a secret society dedicated to defeating Voldemort once and for all. Even with their help, Harry faces a particularly hard year. His new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher is the nasty Ministry representative Dolores Umbridge, and he is having a hard time studying for his Ordinary Wizarding Level exams, or OWLs. Not content with the Order's assistance, Harry creates his own army of students to lead into battle against Voldemort. The D.A., or Dumbledore’s Army, study magic right under Umbridge’s nose and learn ways to fight the Death Eaters and Voldemort. Harry Potter is a hormone raging 16 yr old who shows his anger and depressing deeply throughout the story. Though the plot is thick, as is the spine, readers will race through the book and be back on the train home, wishing for the next train back...
