| | Customer Reviews: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (29 December 2008)This book is one of the best I have ever read and I have read a lot. I think it really finishes of the series with a bang. I have loved reading all the Harry Potter's but this is just amazing. I would definitely say buy this book because you will regret it if you don't. For this money go ahead and buy. The good Slytherin . (24 December 2008)The bearers of wands The casters of spells Their story once again begins Woe are we Oh woe are we The good wizard a portriat he shall be Woe are we Oh woe are we An overthrown , a coup d'etat The dark evil lord he is back But have no fear For our hero and friends are off to hide And other companions gathering their might For soon they shall behold a clash of wands But have no fear For amongst the enemy , from within there is a good Slytherin. Many thanks to Bloomsbury for it's Adult Editions. Just finished reading for the 2nd time... (12 December 2008)PLEASE NOTE: This review CONTAINS SPOILERS I've just finished reading all 7 Potters, and this is only the second time I have read book 7. I was preparing myself to be dissapointed, that maybe I wouldn't enjoy it as much....but boy, was I wrong. This book is, if possible, even more of a page turner than its predecessors. Ignore the reviewers who claim the middle section is 'boring' They must lead lives like Bruce Willis every day to find Hallows unexciting! It's fast-paced, tightly plotted and very, very clever. The epilogue is the only part of the book where I WAS almost bored: too much dialogue, too many names to confuse us. It should have explained what happened to our heroes in the days, weeks, years after the battle; in my opinion the epilogue felt rushed. So yes, this was a weak point in the book. Also Ron suddenly being able to speak Parseltongue by memorising what Harry said is ridiculous! How would you remember a series of hisses? I would have preferred an alternative method of entering the Chamber. But still, these truly are minor flaws in a major masterpiece. A superb end to a superb series. Joanne, we salue you. The End Of It All (07 December 2008)Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows is the final book of the Harry Potter series. It is a magical and scary adventure with so much detail thet you feel like you are taking the journey with them! Harry, Ron and Hermione have to carry on hunting Horcruxes on Dumbledore's impossible orders to help them kill Lord Voldemort once and for all. But they don't know that it will be alot harder than it seems. Every good person in this book is loyal to each other and help others through it when they lose family or friends. They also show courage, by helping each ther and knowing how much danger they are putting themselves in. The Weasley's; Ginny, Ron, Fred, George, Percy, Charlie, Bill, Mr. Weasley and Mrs. Weasley let Harry stay with them for the summer holidays, but will the magical protection be enough? Or will they have to flee before it's too late? This book is a must read. It contains everyone's destiny and what will become of their future? Will it be a peaceful, happy world? Or will it be ruled by Lord Voldemort, with Death Eaters just around the corner? Read the book to find it all out. back to quality (05 December 2008)Luckily enough the last (probably) installment of the Potter serial did not disappoint me like volume three, five and six. Even though the familiar Hogwarts setting is held back till the last chapters and the usual flaws of Ms Rowling's writing are all still there for the roll call, this last episode manages quite a fair amount of tension, nice characterization and interaction, good plot twists; all in all good fun. The romance element that busied so large a part of volume five and six is here reduced to a more reasonable share replaced by magical duels and plenty of action. Explanations are fluid and Harry's self loathing and whining are kept short. These 830 pages flow unerringly to a satisfying ending and to a reasonable if a little conventional epilogue. The book could probably have been better but this is no big news and at least one has as much fun as in volume one. The book's editor did not his/her best though: quite a number of inconsistencies are scattered throughout but this could even come out as fun for Potter's fans who are bound to catch them all. Of course this seventh episode cannot be read on its own because it ties all the loose ends of former episodes. | |
