Summary: Not as Good as Book Two
Review: The third book in the series. Rowling does an excellent job with character development again. The three primary characters are seen to be growing and changing slightly. Some of the surrounding cast are also shown to be changing as well, which provides for an excellent read. The plot gets confusing in places, but really plays well as a mystery of sorts. Again, Rowling does an excellent job of extending our knowledge of the Hogwarts environment, along with an even deeper extension into the rest of the Magic world that Hogwarts is part of. In essence, her exploration of the world comes through the eyes of Harry, who (like the reader) has very little knowledge of the world around him. The ending to this one was also done at breakneck speed, but this time the outcome came in a little cliche fashion. Was slightly disappointed at the manner she ended this particular book.

Summary: This third book in a series is filled with twists and turns.
Review: The third book in this series keeps you guessing the entire way through. No matter what is going on around you you won't be able to put this book down until you have read the ending. Even though you think you know what will happen because of th e title and the other books in the series you will not be able to guess what happens at the end. Throughout this book Harry Potter, main character, is thought to be being chased by an escaped wizard felon, Sirius Balck. Harry is also tormented by demntors, creatures that suck the life out of you. Literally!! The wizard that has escaped turns out to be his godfather and he wasn't chasing after Harry. Can you guess who he was really chasing after? No. So read the book and if you have not read the other books in this series read them to. It will give you a better background of this book.

Summary: The Third Is Great
Review: The Third Book is great. It is about Harry going to school and finding out that a person named Sirius Black wants to kill him. He also meets this new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher who is actually good! Hogwarts is full of uproar and turmoil.

Summary: Harry Potter
Review: The third book of Harry Potter is really good it has alot of suspense in it so every one who loves Harry will really like the third book.It all begans when Harry is on summer vaction going on his third year at Hogwarts of witch craft and wizardy. He is still living with his mean aunt and uncle and his fat spoiled cousin. When Harry's other aunt marge comes to visit, she upset him so bad, that he used magic to blow her up like a balloon, which is against the rules at Hogwarts to use magic in the muggle world. Harry then runs away, and the finds his way to his friends. Ron's parents told Harry that Sirius Black who was in jail for killing 13 people with one spell, was after him, he had escaped from Azkaban.

Summary: Harry grows up
Review: The third book of the Harry Potter series focuses on Harry Potter's third year at Hogwarts. The school year does not get off to a good start, Harry runs away from his aunt's and uncle's house, is not allowed to go to the wizard's village with the other students, and everyone believe Sirius Black, one of the most feared of Voldemort's cohorts, is after Harry. Black escaped from Azkaban, the wizard's prison, but left a clue as to where he was headed: he was heard saying "He's at Hogwarts."With everyone keeping a close watch on Harry and the dementors lurking around, he can't even fully enjoy Quidditch without worrying that something is going to happen. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is a darker, more suspenseful story, full of mystery and horrors. Harry is clearly growing up and maturing in this dark tale, moving closer to his final battle with Lord Voldemort.

Summary: Probably the best.
Review: The third edition of the Harry Potter saga is perhaps my favorite one. This one is the perfect lenght before the books started getting really long. Althought this one is only about 320 pages, it is jam-packed with events and twists that really shock you. The best part about the book is that it moves with the precision and stealth of a sports car.
Every chapter in this book throws a new development, character or item at you that adds to the delicious broth of the story: The revolting Aunt Marge blown up, the Knight Bus, Cornelius Fudge, the terrifying Dementors and Harry's mysteriously received Firebolt, an international standard broomstick. That's only half of the developments: there's also the Hogsmeade weekends, the Marauder's Map and the kindly Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher Professor Lupin, to whom there's more than meets the eye...and of course, the most important character is the prisoner of Azkaban himself, Sirius Black, who just happens to have been Harry's dad's best friend and Harry's godfather.
Yet in spite of this swamp of new information, the book never sags and they are all thrown together in a great potion that flows as clear as water. Harry, Hermione and Ron are still the main characters and we still follow their development faithfully, along with supporting characters like Professors Dumbledore, McGonagall and Snape. The twist at the end is sheer genius and ties everything in the book together so neatly you immediately want to re-read it to see how the twists were revealed. A cliffhanger ending to be sure though, as you are left anxiously awaiting the next installment, to see what follows. A third amazing read.

Summary: A student currently attending SFSU
Review: The third Harry Potter book by J.K. Rowling is actually the best book I have ever read. At first I thought that the book wasn't interesting but as I continued to read it became more interesting. I would highly recommend any one to read book 3 in the Harry Potter volume collection because it contains many adventure scenes which will make you not want to put the book down until your done reading the entire book. The reason why the booked grabbed my attention at first is because my cousin told me that it was about a killer who killed 13 people with one spell and now he has escaped from Azkaban, going after Harry. I give this Book a 5++++ and everyone should read this book because this Book will be the best book you ever read. I give J.K. Rowling Major Props and I can't wait until you publish book number 5.

Summary: An instant classic
Review: The third Harry Potter book does not disappoint. It seems that J.K. Rowling just gets better with practice. As an adult, I felt that this book (and the whole series) was very imaginative and witty. I fell in love with Harry Potter all over again and I can't wait for the 4th-7th books to be written. It is just rare that a book (let alone a series) can capture the imagination of several generations and be thoroughly enjoyed by all who read it. These books are instant classics that I can't wait to share with my children when I have them!
