As all of the other Harry Potter books. This one is just a great a read. All the series of Harry Potter books are a wonderful fantasy. They all leave you in waiting for another continuing story. Now, that i have read and own all the series, i can't wait until the last book comes out. I am sure that i will be a dissappointment thast there will be no more. I also own all the audio books. My children have also read them and read them over and over again. We find that every time you re-read the books there is something that we missed. This is a great set of boooks.

My Harry Potter experience begins at some point when I was little. I dont quite remembering getting the first four books, but what I barely remeber is holding the Fifth one in my hand, calling my freind lazily that I had gotten it...At this point I hadnt read ANY of the Harry Potter books...weird huh?...For some reason I bought the books but never read them. My brother was the only one who read them in our family because our grandfather had told him about it. So, on the night the Half-Blood Prince came out, I said to myself, Well alright...big deal, it's probally exciting to ALOT of people. And ofcourse im ok with that! I've seen all 3 movies!(at that point, it was three movies) So, finally, the clock strikes 12 am..everybodies getting in line for the book, my annoying cousins being uncontrabbly annoying, and once its our turn, I got the book. I couldnt help, even though I wasnt a Harry Potter reader yet, a exitment surging threw my body. (At a time, I had tried to read Prisoner of Askaban, not having read the other 2, and lazily gave up.) So, we get home(I was with my brother), and we go into to my room and my brother watches me slide the book with the others i havent read. I just sighed inside i guess( i dont remeber) and decided...I have all these books, my brother is urging me too read. So, I start on the Fourth book, since i alrdy have seen the movies for 1-3. I sit on the couch, and start digging in.


Once, we had moved, (About a few days later) on about the second day, i had finished GOF and the duel with Voldemort was SO exciting, so intense, so addictive, I just HAD to read the fifth and find out what Harry Potter will do to protect his freinds and himself from the return of Lord Voldemort. Finishing, the fifth one a few weeks later, I get more urge to wanting it more. (Ofcourse, i was hooked since book four) And I come to, finally, Half-Blood Prince. If I were givin the chance to choose which boo kwas best, I'd say Sixth was the greatest, hands-down. It's SO easily written, so clever. Harry is maturing, and hes becoming more confident. Of course, with a death in the book, I promise for NO SPOILERS. But please, take my word when I say: once the 7th book comes out, the final intallment, Half-Blood Prince WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN. Of course, seventh, in my guess wil be the greatest of all Harry Potter books. It has to be, but Half-Blood Prince, will, no matter what, be RIGHT next to it. It's hilarious, addictive, comftrable, action pack, suspenseful, and cliff hanging at the begining to finish. The ending will have a BIG BANG. And when I say big bang like i say, I want it to move you forward to buy this Priceless book and chew threw it till the end. and realize what I mean. It's flawless. Truly flawless.


I cannot call myself a true Harry Potter fan JUST yet. But I am making it a life long dream to become one.

My kids (17,16,13 and 11) and I used this product on our holiday trip through Western Canada and on Vancouver Island in August 2006. We had read the book before and thought it would be fun to listen to it on our travels. An extra bonus was that it is read by the same fellow that narrates the bonus items on the DVDs. Though it was a tad pricey, I would recommend it to any Harry Potter fan.

Paperback is good from a ecology point of view, but I would like
a best quality paper.

Great, kept your interest, loved the reader, able to recognize the characters by change in voice. Lover her books.
