Harrius Potter et Philosophi Lapis (Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Latin edition) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This is a smooth and clever translation, perfect for the person who wants an enjoyable quick read to refurbish fluency in the language. The bright style of the original is preserved, and it is obvious that the translator has his own sense of humor as well, playing with words and phrasing without sacrificing...

Harry Potter y la Órden del Fénix Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I'm an adult with a reasonable command of Spanish as a second language. I can read a newspaper fairly easily, and I can hold mutually interesting conversations with people, so long as their speech isn't too slangy, to regional, or too fast. I found Potter #5 in spanish translation to be an entertaining...

Harry Potter Und der Stein der Weisen (German Edition) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Chances are if your thinking on buying this book in German, you've probably already read the Englsih version, so I won't bog you down with any lengthy opinion on the story itself except to say it is a modern classic, full of mystery and suspense that can be enjoyed by kids and adults alike.Foreign language...

Harry Potter Box Set (Books 1-5) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)You remember those times as a kid when you picked up a book that was truly magical? Those were the days of "A Wrinkle in Time" and "The Chronicles of Narnia", where you could be swept away in an amazing world and desperatly desired to become part of that universe. The Harry Potter books are kind of like...

Harry Potter and the Order of the Court: The J.K. Rowling Copyright Case and the Question of Fair Use Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)This book was extremely helpful and answered all the questions I had on the topic. The only thing that bothered me was the way that- twice on one page- it would tell me that the testimony provides for "rather compelling reading." I've already bought the book; I intend to read it. Just get to the point.Other...

The Unofficial Harry Potter Vocabulary Builder: Learn the 3,000 Hardest Words from All Seven Books and Enjoy the Series More Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)We bought the Harry Potter series for our private high school library. The vocabulary book is probably on an 8th grade level and is like a dictionary giving the words and definitions. Each word is referenced to a specific volume, page and word in one of the Potter books. The definitions are clear, comprehensive...

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I: Heroes (Harry Potter Movie T) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Loved the book, only setback was that my sister bought it for me for christmas and demanded half the posters; there were only two posters of Harry, and one was on the back of Ron, so if you're planning on hanging the posters on your wall like we did, just know that there's only enough for one of each...

Unlocking Harry Potter: Five Keys for the Serious Reader Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)Maybe you are a life-long learner sort, or a college professor interested in acquiring an insightful, but thoroughly accessible book about Rowling's series. Maybe you're a thoughtful Christian, who suspects the anti-Potter denunciations are not quite on the mark, but you can't quite articulate why. Maybe...

The Deathly Hallows Lectures: The Hogwarts Professor Explains the Final Harry Potter Adventure Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)It seems like the majority of Deathly Hallows critique and analysis has focused on what Rowling got wrong -- the opportunities she missed, the issues left unresolved, etc. Mr. Granger's book of essays/lectures points out what Rowling got right and makes a very persuasive argument that Deathly Hallows...

Harry Potter Paperback Boxed Set (Books 1-3) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)JK Rowling has exquisite talent using the English language to weave a fabulous tale within the genre of fantasy. As a parent, former elementary teacher and current professor, I recommend this book to all with the reminder that it is not reality - it is fantasy! Take joy and fly on the imaginary flight...

Jesus Potter Harry Christ: The Fascinating Parallels Between Two of the World's Most Popular Literary Characters Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)After reading Murphy's book but before writing this review, I wanted to check out Holy Blasphemy Press. I accept atheism as a valid philosophy for anyone making an intelligent decision and I wrote about this in my own work, rejecting the old, dictator god that many of us grew up with and replacing that...

The Book of Harry Potter Trifles, Trivias, and Particularities Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I bought this obsessively well-researched book to read on my own, and see if my re-reading of Rowling's works had taught me anything. I picked it up a chapter at a time during the busy holidays for a break, and enjoyed it very much. But where the book is really going to shine is in groups. Have a theme...

Re-Reading Harry Potter Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I did enjoy parts of this book very much. I'm afraid, though, that it was often for the wrong reasons. At times I suspected that it was an elaborate and extended send-up of academic squabbling over literature. I'm still not quite sure, but I *think* it is serious.The first chapter 'Book Covers' ("I begin...

Harry Potter y las reliquias de la muerte (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Spanish Edition) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)El final de la saga Harry Potter, de verdad muy bueno el libro, lo lei en menos de una semana. Entre los puntos positivos el mas destacable: Al fin se devela el misterio Severus Snape (sorprendente!!!!!!!!!), asimismo tiene poco desperdicio, es decir, poco material de relleno como ocurria en ediciones...

Harry Potter A L'Ecole Des Sorciers (Harry Potter (French)) (French Edition) Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)I took French years ago but like many US citizens, I rarely had the opportunity to actually use even what little I knew. Remembering the old saw that "If you don't use it, you lose it," I tried from time to time to improve my reading skills by taking up a book that I knew I had enjoyed in English. Although...

The Seeker's Guide to Harry Potter Review

Average Reviews:(More customer reviews)If you liked any of the Harry Potter stories even a smidgen, you'll thoroughly enjoy The Seeker's Guide. Well and engagingly written, this book brings together Dr. Geo Trevarthen's vast knowledge of Celtic spirituality, ritual magic, myth, and the timeless themes from spiritual traditions across the...
