Om forfatteren
J. K. (Joanne Kathleen) Rowling was born in Gloucestershire, U. K. on July 31, 1965. She also writes fiction novels under the name of Robert Galbraith. Rowling attended Tutshill Primary and then went on to Wyedean Comprehensive where she was made Head Girl in her final year. She received a degree vis mere in French from Exeter University. She later took some teaching classes at Moray House Teacher Training College and a teacher-training course in Manchester, England. This extensive education created a perfect foundation to spark the Harry Potter series that Rowling is renowned for. After college, Rowling moved to London to work for Amnesty International, where she researched human rights abuses in Francophone Africa, and worked as a bilingual secretary. In 1992, Rowling quit office work to move to Portugal and teach English as a Second Language. There she met and married her husband, a Portuguese TV journalist. But the marriage dissolved soon after the birth of their daughter. It was after her stint teaching in Portugal that Rowling began to write the premise for Harry Potter. She returned to Britain and settled in Edinburgh to be near her sister, and attempted to at least finish her book, before looking for another teaching job. Rowling was working as a French teacher when her book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was published in June of 1997 and was an overnight sensation. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone won the British Book Awards Children's Book of the Year, was shortlisted for the Guardian Fiction Award, and received a Commended citation in the Carnegie Medal awards. She also received 8,000 pounds from the Scottish Arts Council, which contributed to the finishing touches on The Chamber of Secrets. Rowling continued on to win the Smarties Book Prize three years in a row, the only author ever to do so. At the Bologna Book Fair, Arthur Levine from Scholastic Books, bought the American rights to Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone for the unprecedented amount of $105,000.00. The book was retitled Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone for it's American release, and proceeded to top the Best Seller's lists for children's and adult books. The American edition won Best of the Year in the School Library Journal, Publishers Weekly, Parenting Magazine and the Cooperative Children's Book Center. It was also noted as an ALA Notable Children's Book as well as Number One on the Top Ten of ALA's Best Books for Young Adults. The Harry Potter Series consists of seven books, one for each year of the main character's attendance at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. All of the books in the series have been made into successful movies. She is number 1 on the Hollywood Reporter's '25 Most Powerful Authors' 2016 list. She has also written Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Quidditch Through the Ages, and The Tales of Beedle the Bard. She won the 2016 PEN/Allen Foundation Literary Service Award. In 2016 she, along with Jack Thorne and John Tiffany, published the script of the play Harry Potter and the cursed child. It became an instant bestseller. Rowling's first novel for an adult audience,The Casual Vacancy, was published by Little Brown in September 2012. She made The New York Times Best Seller List with her title Very Good Lives: The Fringe Benefits of Failure and the Importance of Imagination. She published two bestselling fiction novels under the name of Robert Galbraith: The Cuckoo's Calling and The Silkworm. (Bowker Author Biography) vis mindre

Harry fylder 13 og er klar til sit tredje år på Hogwarts troldmandsskole. Han får fødselsdagsgaver fra Ron, Hermione og Hagrid. Vernons søster Miss Marjorie Dursley - kaldet Aunt Marge - fornærmer Harrys forældre, så Harry flygter fortvivlet og bliver samlet op af selveste ministeren for magi, Cornelius Fudge, efter en tur med den magiske bus med Stan Shunpike og Ernie Prang som besætning. Nyhederne handler om flugtfangen Sirius Black. Hagrid underviser i Magiske Dyrs pleje, Professor Sybill Trelawney i Forudsigelser. Professor R. J. Lupin er ny lærer i Forsvar mod Mørkets Magter.
Hermione har anskaffet en kat, Crookshanks, der ikke kan lide Rons rotte Scabbers. Og hun har lånt en dims, så hun kan følge flere timer samtidigt.
Black siges at ville dræbe Harry, så Dementorerne fra Azkaban er sat på opgaven. De checker toget inden det når Hogwarts og Harry besvimer.
Lupin underviser i Riddikulus besværgelsen og drikker en trylledrik, som Snape har lavet. Harry vil gerne til Hogsmeade, men har ikke fået underskrift fra forældre eller værge.
Imens er der tegn på Sirius er på Hogswarts et sted.
Harry får en anonym julegave, en superkost, mærket Firebolt.
Under en Quiddich match besvimer Harry igen pgra dementorerne og hans kost går i stykker. Men Fred og George har fundet Røverkortet, og giver det til Harry. Det er lavet af Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs.
Usynlighedskappen og Røverkortet er en god kombination. Harry overhører en samtale der røber at James og Lily blev dræbt, fordi en Fidelius ed blev brudt. Og at det var Black, der gjorde det. Lupin viser sig som en god ven og røber langsomt at han, James og Sirius var gode venner.
Hippogriffen Buckbeak bliver dødsdømt fordi den hakkede i Draco Malfoy, hvilket ellers burde være straf nok i sig selv.
Sirius Black viser sig og får forklaret Ron, Harry og Hermione hvordan tingene hænger sammen.
Scabbers er Peter Pettigrew og en animagus som James og Sirius. Lupin beretter om hvordan han blev bidt af en varulv og at Slagpoplen er plantet for at han kan bo i fred i den uge hver måned hvor han er ulv. Hans tre venner blev animagi for at hjælpe ham.
Sirius spillede Snape et puds der nær havde kostet Snape livet, men James reddede ham. Snape er stadig sur over det. Pettigrew undslipper og Sirius må flygte. Det ordnes på genial vis vha Hermiones tidsvender og med Buckbeak's liv som bonus.
Snape er frådende arrig på Harry efter dette, men forstår ikke hvordan det er sket.
Glimrende fortsættelse på bind to.… (mere)
