There is a door at the end of a silent corridor. And it’s haunting Harry Potter’s dreams. Why else would he be waking in the middle of the night, screaming in terror?
It’s not just the upcoming O.W.L. exams; a new teacher with a personality like poisoned honey; a venomous, disgruntled house-elf; or even the growing threat of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. Now Harry Potter is faced with the unreliability of the very government of the magical world and the impotence of the authorities at Hogwarts.
Despite this (or perhaps because of it), he finds depth and strength in his friends, beyond what even he knew; boundless loyalty; and unbearable sacrifice.

J.K. Rowling’s fifth installation in the Harry Potter series, “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix”, once again proves her mastery in weaving magic with words. The book manages to grip its readers, no matter their age, from start to finish. As Harry Potter’s world broadens and darkens, Rowling cleverly delves deeper into his emotions and conflicts, fleshing out characters and relationships while seamlessly expanding upon the fantastical lore of the wizarding world. Tensions flare, secrets surface, and bonds strengthen amidst the unfolding chaos, making for a reading experience that is nothing short of spellbinding. It is a definitive must-read, an exemplary work of imagination that will continue to shine in the annals of fantasy literature.
