By J.K. Rowing Would you ever try to battle a dragon? Or swim in a lake with a giant squid? That is what a boy none other than Harry Potter does when he goes to Hogwarts. There he gets entered in the triwizard tounament. And has to do three different tasks.
1.He has to beat a dragon,
2.He has to get Ron from the bottom of the lake,
3.He has to go get the cup.
It gets pretty annoying with Reiter Skitter buzzing around for a story.
Can't tell anymore it might give it away. To find out more read Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

Summary: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire review
Review: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
By J. K. Rowling "Would you really fight Voldemort?" Harry got his name in the Goblet of Fire by somebody but he didn't know whom. Harry won the trophy for the Trywizard Tournament but little did he know it was a portkey that took him to Voldemort where he fought him. I like this book because it has a lot of action and it makes you want to be in Hogworts. The best characters are Harry, Ron and Herminie.
I learned that I would love to go to Hogworts if it were real. If I got accepted and it were real I would definitely say "Yes!" This book is my favorite book because it is so cool and the author allows you to visualizes such good fantasy that it makes you want to be accepted at Hogwarts if it were real. Find out what happens in the fight with Harry and Voldemort or should I say, "you know who?"

Summary: J.K. Rowling has turned out a masterpiece!
Review: "Goblet of Fire" is an incredible achievement: it is clear and straightforward enough for younger children to follow, and complex and gripping enough to hook even the most jaded adults. Most impressive are the characters, especially Severus Snape. It would have been so easy for Rowling to make him the posterboard-villain of the series, yet the depth of his psyche is astounding. This is especially made clear in this book.
Most tantalizing are the little clues thrown in every so often; dedicated readers constantly read through the book to find them. If you look carefully, you can predict with some detail the answers to The Great Questions: Why does Voldemort want to kill Harry? What will happen next? Where will the battle lines be drawn?
Any reader should immediately buy all four books of the series, if you haven't done so already. The first two are "fun" and Rowling clearly is taking much from "pop fantasy," but in the third book she really comes into her own. I cannot wait for the fifth book, and I wish it would come out already!!

Summary: Harry potter and the goblet of fire, a chidrens book?
Review: I started reading this series despite my better judgement due to the pestering of my friends. I did however find that it captured my imagination quite quickly although it was unmistakably a childrens story. As the series has progressed it seems to have become a lot darker and more sinister with the dementors in azkaban and the re-emergence of Voldemort in the Goblet of fire. Far from detracting from the books I find that it adds to them and gives them far more credibility to adults. I thouroughly enjoyed this book and would recomend it to anyone not a cynical so and so.

Summary: The best Harry Potter book yet!
Review: This fourth book in the Harry Potter series blows the first three books away! Harry finally comes face to face with his enemy and is forced to use everything he has learned to survive. This book is slightly "darker" and more frightening than the other three, but even more engaging. Though this book is over 700 pages, I found myself wishing it were even longer. Incredible!

Summary: Almost 5 stars for Harry and the Goblet!
Review: Another great adventure from Ms. Rowling. This time we find Harry, living for the summer with the Dursleys on Privet Drive, two weeks before going back to Hogwarts. He has been starving all summer, because his enormous cousin, Dudley, is on a strict diet, and Harry's aunt believes they all should have to eat what Dudley has to eat. Harry lives on stale birthday cake he has hidden under the floorboards in his bedroom.
He wakes from a terrible nightmare one night, his scar burning, and a horrible feeling of dread. His fears are soon pushed aside, though, as he travels with the Weasleys to the Quidditch World Cup. All kinds of adventures ensue until Harry, Ron, and Hermione return to Hogwarts.
Upon arriving at school, the students discover that the usual Quidditch cup will not be contested this year, as an old tournament, The Triwizard Tournament, has been revived. Only witches and wizards 17 years of age and older can compete. Students from competing schools will compete with the one student selected from Hogwarts.
What happens when Harry's name is selected as one of the champions to compete begins a rollercoaster ride of an adventure! Who entered him in the tournament? Why does his scar continue to burn? Another great mystery and another suprising ending.

Summary: Rowling takes adult step up
Review: J. K. Rowling has rewarded her adult readers by taking a step up in the fourth instalment of the Harry Potter septilogy. The first three books were fun, fast and full of action. The fourth one loyally retains these features for its younger readers, but adds a whole new dimension of intriguing themes. A multitude of sub-plots boil away, each commenting on analogous situations in the real world. Nonetheless, the plotlines all wrap up at the end very satisfactorily ("like a jigsaw puzzle"), while leaving the mouth wet in anticipation of the fifth book. The majority of the book is fairly light-hearted but the opening chapter gives a hint of the dark, overbearing finale that will leave Hogwarts, and indeed all of Europe, a much less safe place by the time the fifth book arrives on shelves.

Summary: A Harry Potter For Grownups
Review: I'm with all the others. I give this book five stars. It is imaginative, crisply descriptive, and full of excitement. I recommend it as one of the best fiction stories I have read. I also recommend "West Point" by Norman Thomas Remick, the only book I have ever read that is a true (nonfiction) story presented as a fantasy. It's kind of a Harry Potter for grownups. Try it. You'll like it, and learn!

Summary: Hooked and waiting
Review: All the books are awesome. I hadn't read anything for months, then I read the first book. I was hooked. I read all four in a month. Stayed up all night to finish the fourth one. Now I am on the waiting list for the fifth book. The books seem like their childish but their for anyone, 5 years old to 100 years old. J.K. does an outstanding job of creating a whole other world.

Summary: It's not just for kids!
Review: First of all, I have to take issue with the so-called "serious" authors who would negate Ms. Rowlings contributions by forcing her removal from the New York Times Bestsellers list and relocating her to a Children's Bestseller list. Sour Grapes, all of you! A best seller is just that. A book that sells the most copies, regardless of its intended readership. Put Ms. Rowling back on the top of the "real" list where she belongs! These books belong to all ages. Every member of my family has read them, borrowed them from others and then purchased their own copies, attended the 4th book's midnight unveiling parties and eagerly await the next installment! My 74 year-old mother in law was recently widowed and received the boxed set of Potter books to distract her from her own grief. She is now a Potter-maniac in her own right and snatches up every Potter tie-in product she finds! (mouse pad, coffee mug etc!) It's a rare author indeed who can give children, parents and grandparents a magical world they can't wait to share with each other. I highly recommend Jim Dale's audio versions. They are richly characterized without ommitting a single word (trust me, my 12-year old has listened repeatedly with the books open trying to catch any mistakes and so far has found only one... where Dale refers to "Snape" as "Snipe".) My husband is a truck driver who loves making the miles fly by while getting immersed in life at Hogwarts and he's gotten other drivers hooked on the series as well! I could go on and on touting the virtues of these books (the foster child who takes a great deal of comfort from the abused and neglected boy who discovers his own magic) but if you've read them, you already know and if you haven't, what's stopping you?
