Loved by millions of readers worldwide, let the third story in the greatest children’s book series of all time take you on an unforgettable journey. The hope and wonder of Harry Potter’s world will make you want to escape to Hogwarts again and again. There’s magic on every page!
When the Knight Bus crashes through the darkness and screeches to a halt in front of him, it’s the start of another far from ordinary year at Hogwarts for Harry Potter. Sirius Black, escaped mass-murderer and follower of Lord Voldemort, is on the run – and they say he is coming after Harry. In his first ever Divination class, Professor Trelawney sees an omen of death in Harry’s tea leaves … But perhaps most terrifying of all are the Dementors patrolling the school grounds, with their soul-sucking Kiss …

Praise for the Harry Potter books:
‘That rare thing, a series of stories adored by parents and children alike.’ – Daily Telegraph
‘A phenomenon … Grown men in suits have been spotted with them on trains. Parents squabble over who gets to read them to the kids, and teachers say a chapter can silence the most rowdy of classes.’ – Guardian
‘One of the greatest literary adventures of modern times.’ – Sunday Telegraph
‘Spellbinding, enchanting, bewitching stuff.’ – Mirror
‘The only thing wrong with it is that you can’t put it down.’ – Fiona Chadwick, 9 years old
‘It is very funny. I would love to be Harry and make up some magic spell to play on my teachers.’ – Tom El-Shawk, 11 years old
‘My mum loved it so much she would not let my dad read any of it to me.’ – Alexander Benn, 7 and 9¼ years old
‘It’s for all ages and it’s brilliant.’ – Katrina Farrant, 10 years old
As it turns out, Harry isn't punished at all for his errant wizardry. Instead he is mysteriously rescued from his Muggle neighborhood and whisked off in a triple-decker, violently purple bus to spend the remaining weeks of summer in a friendly inn called the Leaky Cauldron. What Harry has to face as he begins his third year at Hogwarts explains why the officials let him off easily. It seems that Sirius Black--an escaped convict from the prison of Azkaban--is on the loose. Not only that, but he's after Harry Potter. But why? And why do the Dementors, the guards hired to protect him, chill Harry's very heart when others are unaffected? Once again, Rowling has created a mystery that will have children and adults cheering, not to mention standing in line for her next book. Fortunately, there are four more in the works.
