Description
The third adventure in the spellbinding Harry Potter saga - the series that changed the world of books forever 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.

But perhaps most terrifying of all are the Dementors patrolling the school grounds, with their soul-sucking kiss. These classic editions of J.K. Rowling's internationally bestselling, multi-award-winning series feature thrilling jackets by Jonny Duddle, bringing Harry Potter to the next generation of young readers. It's time to PASS THE MAGIC ON ...
