Description/Notes
During his third year at Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry, Harry Potter must confront the devious and dangerous wizard responsible for his parents' deaths. Another thrilling year at Hogwarts is followed by yet another awful stay with the Dursleys. When he mistakenly casts a magic spell on one of their guests, Harry runs away and ends up spending the summer at the Leaky Cauldron Inn. His third year at Hogwarts brings more perilous adventures when an escaped convict tries to track him down. Text copyright 2004 Lectorum Publications, Inc. For twelve long years, the dread fortress of Azkaban held an infamous prisoner named Sirius Black. Convicted of killing thirteen people with a single curse, he was said to be the heir apparent to the Dark Lord, Voldemort. Now he has escaped, leaving only two clues as to where he might be headed: Harry Potter's defeat of You-Know-Who was Black's downfall as well. And the Azkaban guards heard Black muttering in his sleep, 'He's at Hogwarts ... he's at Hogwarts.' Harry Potter isn't safe, not even within the walls of his magical school, surrounded by his friends. Because on top of it all, there may well be a traitor in their midst. J.K. Rowling grew up in England in the Forest of Dean and is a graduate of Exeter University. She lives in Edinburgh.
