Summary: Rowling continues to intrigue readers
Review: The Harry Potter series is simply awesome. Rowling has created a masterpiece that is an instant classic. Harry and the others continue to be further developed in this story. Adults like it too. I can't wait for the next volume.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Back to Hogwarts
Review: Originally, I was a bit disappointed that there would be no Quidditch for Harry. It turned out to be for the best. I really enjoyed the wizarding tournament. It lent a certain difference to this book. This book is a must have for any Harry Potter fan. It's very obviously building to important events to come. Can't wait for the next book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Burning Cups of Fire
Review: A burning cup of fire is what starts all of the trouble in the latest Harry Potter novel, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. The latest novel is between 700-800 pages but is well worth it. This novel has the same characters as the first three novels like Harry and Hermione, but some new characters like the quiddich player Viktor Krum will appear. This novel has all the twists and turns of the other three novels, but is much longer.

In my opinion, this novel is the best of the series thus far. I really liked the use of magic and latin incantations. I also like the use of magical creatures like the dragons in this novel. If you have read the other three novels and liked them, then you should read this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome tale of magic and friendship...
Review: I've always loved to read books. I'm an 18 year old male and when I first picked up Harry Potter I was a bit sceptical about it but after the first 50 pages of Harry Potter 1 I was a regular Harry Potter fan. I read all the Harry Potter books back-to-back and I even got my girlfriend hooked up on them and she hadn't touched a book in years. This book is wonderfully written and contains a great story written in a way that can be funny, scary, exciting as well as depressing. J.K. Rowling understand, like few other writers, how to deal with a childs mind and does this in such a way that even grown ups will love this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Deep, rich and complex; Potter has come so far.
Review: By far the thickest of the four, as of Jan 2002, I carefully predict
that the thickness shall not increase as the series progresses.
Contrary to the complaints of most critics about the size of the book,
I submit that Rowling is now writing to her dedicated readers, and is
not trying to draw in new fans with this work. We demand this
progression.

All things aside this is the deepest, richest and broadest book in the
series. We are once more introduced to new storylines and dimensions,
a hallmark of the previous books. As I mentioned in my previous
reviews, storylines that were developed in the first three books pass
through this volume and on towards the future.

The return of the Dark Lord is an almost welcome event at this
juncture, partially because a confrontation was inevitable and also due
to the fact that the fate of Harry is ultimately tied up with his
nemesis. Their symbiotic relationship can only result in one outcome;
an endless struggle for power and dominance over each other.

New dimensions of the wizard world continue to unfold with brilliant
elements like Portkeys (for instant teleportation), the Quidditch World
Cup (a natural evolution of the favorite wizarding sport) and the
TriWizard Tournament (a fantastic new competition). The introduction
of other wizarding schools broadens the scope of Rowling's world by
several magnitudes, and so she continues to amaze us as she peels away
curtains, revealing more of her imagination.

The most important element introduced in the series thus far, in my
humble opinion, is the wizard discipline of Auror. In the past I found
myself grumbling at the ravages and madness of the Dark Wizards. Every
misdeed and crime they committed made me wonder if there was no
organized resistance to the evil.

When the Auror Mad-Eye Moody appears for the first time, I almost
cheered. He represents a breed of wizard that dedicate their entire
lives to the pursuit, capture and even destruction of Dark Wizards. I
feel that without such sacrifice and focus, evil would certainly have
the upper hand over good.

It was certainly heartening to me when Moody recommends this lonely and
agonizing path to Harry. I believe this is the most likely path for
our champion, given the struggles he has endured with Dark Magic since
his birth. I don't wish him pain and suffering, but the stuff his soul
is made of suggests he would not find peace unless he tried the hardest
he could to right wrongs in the world around him.

As always, our heroes continue to grow and mature. We are certainly
seeing the blossoming of romances and other higher aspirations.
Brought many smiles to my face.

The staggering conclusion, and the gravity of the events to follow in
book five, make me wonder how will our heroes survive this? It seems
that the lines are being drawn for cruel and ruthless War between good
and evil. People are taking sides, and who knows if Harry, Hermione
and Ron will have the strength, courage, wisdom and vision to survive?
Thus the last chapter is titled - The Beginning.

Summary: Harry Potter at age 14
Review: This is J.K Rowling's fourth Harry Potter book. Filled with ideas, she writes Harry Potter and the Goblet of fire. In this book she introduces new characters, new magical creatures and the latest of Lord Voldemort. In this particular book, there is more adventure (and a lot of pages) and what we saw form the minute Harry got his wand, a type of relation with You-know-who. The plot is more complicated and once more,J.K ends it with an exciting and unexpected ending. A fun way to spend our days, enrichning our mind with magical knowledge, there is Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire; A book you must not loose the chance to read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Review: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire By J.K.
Rowling

Wish you where a wizard? This wizard goes to
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardy and
his name is Harry Potter in Harry Potter and the
Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling.

I recommend this book because Harry is
underaged in the Twizard Turnament which makes
the stoty so interesting you just can't put it down.
I can't tell you what happens in the end, but I can
tell you it's a great book. It's A Great Book!!!

I think J.K. Rowling was trying to tell her
readers that even if most people think you can't do
something that if you think you can win or just have
a great time. Now do you want to read this book??

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Harry Potter
Review: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K.
Rowling is a really exciting book! Harry (the protagonist) gets picked for the Twizard
Tournament that hasn't happend in 400 years! But
that's not even half of what happens.
If you like to fight dragons and cast spells I
recommend this book to you.
J.K. Rowling is a very good fantasy writer.

Rating: 5 stars
