"Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" by J.K. Rowling

Publisher Summary:

It's the pivotal fourth novel in the seven-part tale of Harry Potter's training as a wizard and his coming of age. Harry wants to get away from the pernicious Dursleys and go to the International Quidditch Cup with Hermione, Ron, and the Weasleys. He wants to dream about Cho Chang, his crush (and maybe do more than dream). He wants to find out about the mysterious event that's supposed to take place at Hogwarts this year, an event involving two other rival schools of magic, and a competition that hasn't happened for a hundred years. He wants to be a normal, fourteen-year-old wizard. Unfortunately for Harry Potter, he's not normal — even by wizarding standards.

And in his case, different can be deadly.


Any doubts that the Harry Potter series has gone from a kids book to Adult Fiction have now been crushed. This is an excellent book! Though you'd never tell by watching the movie since SOOO much had to be cut out of it.

Dumbledore is MUCH more of a class act than portrayed in the movie, the 3rd Task was actually more difficult than it was shown, and who knew that there were house elves in the book! You can tell... I really didn't like the 4th movie. But I give high marks on the book. Do yourself a favor and READ IT!
