Customer Reviews

A great read and fantastic journey in this series.

Another great on this series

Payed $4 for a 1st edition?!

Upon arrival I was upset I payed $4 for a hardcover book that was deemed “very good” when I could feel the rod used for the binding broken through the dust jacket but when I checked out the publication it is legit a 1st ed. how crazy!!

Mangy ol’ halfblood!

The thing I like about the Harry Potter franchise is it is as light or as deep as you need it to be. So, if you need it to be about a boy who goes to school and learns magic and fights bad guys, then this is the series for you. But if you need it to be a series of war, politics, love and loss, and rebellion, then again, this is the series for you. Order of the Phoenix is the first book in the franchise where Harry really gets to “step off the farm”. His world beyond Hogwarts expands, and he starts learning the true definition of family and trust. Oh, and if you are a fan of villains, Dolores Umbridge will be your newest love-hate character.

What I ordered.

I got exactly what was purchased.

Condition of book as described by seller!!

This book was bought for my grandson who has just discovered Harry Potter. Third generation J.K. Rowling reader!! The older generations are selfish and not willing to pass down their original books, lol. We are currently building his collection.

Great condition

Great book!!

WOW. JK is like an awesome writer!

I can't wait to read the sixth book! I want to know who the half blood prince is! I pre-ordered a book to come in July some time, and I'm looking forward to reading it! The 5th book was sooo good! I've read it like five times now! I can't wait for more! I was kind of sad when my favorite character died though! But there was whispering behind the veil, so hopefully he's still alive! I have a feeling Dumbledore is going to die in the next book, probably to save Harry or something...

Harry Potter in Spanish!

As soon as I got my copy of this book I was thrill.The translation is great and it retained the original enthuciams that the english version has.I recommed this book to anyone that knows spanish or is learning,this will be the ideal gift.

Another dose of magic from the world of Harry Potter

We should all now be familiar with the story of Harry Potter (especially if you are reading The Order of the Phoenix), so there isn't much of a reason for a backstory. Harry's adventures have already kept us entertained over the span of four books and now, in the fifth chapter, the most intricate story is given. In "Order" Harry emerges as a very angry youth, he expresses rage towards the Dursleys, his friends, teachers, and the adults he holds in high regard. An event occurring in the Muggle world causes Harry to become involved in the Wizarding government who soon decides to put their hands into Hogwarts business. Knowing Harry, much adventure and mystery does await his next year at Hogwarts and Order of the Phoenix doesn't let you down. You're given the romance, action, mystery, and tragedy. But this doesn't mean the novel isn't filled with fun (the Weasley brothers Fred and George take care of that). The most heinous of all characters (possibly even worse than Voldemort) comes from one of the new additions to the Hogwarts staff. All of this isn't helped because Harry and his fellow fifth years also have to deal with their exhausting O.W.L.s. But don't let the 800+ pages get you down, you will become so involved you won't notice how fast the pages turn. All leading up to an amazing climax that will definitly leave you begging for more. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix follows the usual Rowling formula-each new book is better than the next-and you will find yourself dazzled. So when does the sixth one come out?
