This is my favourite book and i've probably read it over ten times! If you are one of those people who just don't want to get into Harry Potter or have only read the first one, you should read this book because it is so intricately written that it really makes you wonder how J.K. Rowling thinks up all this stuff!

just read this book,and i must say,it is good.nice mix of humor,exciting action,and mystery.actualy,only thing that realy did disapoint me about this book is that it should be at least a little longer.i recomend it to younger readers(7-17),but even adults can enjoy it(i think)
this book is very good,and is a must to any HP colection.

Murder mystery to wherewolf. This book is one of intense adventure, answered questions, and a whole nother real of life with magic. A flying golden ball, soul takers, and death predicitions. It's a whole new view into the ministry of magic, and what was before Harry.

I liked this book so much. It´s better then the other four because it has more action in it. Harry, Ron and Hermione are all grown up, Harry ets to go out with Cho Chang. Luna, she´s the best new character, she´s mysterious and friendly, I think she´s going to be more importante on future books. On this book Rowling answers lots of questions at the end when Dumbledore tells Harry the whole story, why Voldemort wants him. It´s really good. There´s just one thing I dont like about the story: that Sirius Black dies in the end. I´ve read that book 6 times and every time I cry. He shouldn´t have died´poor Harry, lost his parents and now lost the closest thing to him:his godfather. I hope on the sixth book there´ll be good news.

this book was AWESOME!!! i liked how Harry Potter was related to Black. that was sooo cool. my favorite character is Hermione because she was witty and smart and fun to read about. the Harry Potter series is one of my favorites. one of my favorite things in the book is the Map the twins gave Harry. I wish i had that map! anyways this book was cool!!!

Here we go again. This was my favourite out of the 6 books. Buckbeak and Sirius are my two favourite characters. It was a great book. Watch the movie after you read the book, because the movie is so different from the movie it is not funny.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is the third book in the series of seven. In this book, Harry accidently causes his aunt to inflat during the summer break then runs away from his aunt and uncle. He ends up in Diagon Alley, an all Wizarding town, where he meets the Minister of Magic. Harry thought he would get in trouble for performing underage Wizardry on his aunt, but the Minister seems more interested in Harry's safety. Harry couldn't think why the Minister would be so worried about him that he would actually go searching for him. A Wizard had escaped from Azkaban, the Wizard prison... But Harry couldn't think of what that had to do with him.

While Harry was staying in Diagon Alley, Ron and his family came to stay before the end of the summer break. He accidently heard Ron's parents talking about whether or not they should tell Harry that the prisoner who had escaped from Azkaban was a friend of his parents and was the one who betrayed them to dark Wizard who murdered them.

Even though Harry was upset about what he over heard, school started and was going pretty well. One day while Harry, Ron and Hermione were visiting Hagrid, a big black dog attacked Ron and pulled him under the Whomping Willow, a tree that swung it's branched when you got to near, and through a passage. Of course, Harry and Hermione followed. The dog actually turned out to be the escaped prisoner; he was able to turn into an animal at will.

The prisoner turned out to be Harry's godfather and didn't murder his parents. He had proof that it was actually his parent's other friend who betrayed them.

I could keep going, but I dont want to ruin it completely! The story starts getting very interesting in this book. I've read it several times (along with all the other Harry Potter books!) and would definately recommend it.
