It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn't much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband, and a father of three school-age children. While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son, Albus, must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places
Roman
Es kommt nicht oft vor, dass der 16-jährige Lucas Swain Freundschaften schließt. Er ist lieber für sich, denkt nach, grübelt herum. So ist es für ihn ein richtiges Ereignis, als er sich mit Violet Park anfreundet, denn Violet ist - tot. Und Lucas rettet ihre Urne. Das erste Mal hörte Lucas von Violet in einem kleinen Minicar-Büro, mitten in der Nacht. Ihre Überreste stehen in einer Schachtel auf einem Regal. Allein die Tatsache, dass sie einmal gelebt hat und nun bis in alle Ewigkeit in einem verräucherten Büro stehen muss, setzt Lucas so zu (mal davon abgesehen, dass er eine Nanosekunde glaubt, sie würde ihn aus der Urne heraus um Hilfe anrufen), dass es für ihn zu einer Mission wird, herauszukriegen, wer diese Frau war. Was er erfährt, lässt ihn sein eigenes Leben besser verstehen.

He can't quite believe that Professor Dumbledore will actually appear at the Dursleys' of all places. Why is the Professor coming to visit him now?

Mit der 3-Typen-Lehre familiäre Krisenherde entschärfen Wenn Eltern und Kinder immer wieder »Stress« miteinander haben, sind sie womöglich unterschiedliche Persönlichkeitstypen. Wenn ein Gefühlvoller (oder Beziehungstyp), ein Nachdenklicher (oder Sachtyp) und ein Aktiver (oder Handlungstyp) aufeinander treffen – und das in ein und derselben Familie –, begegnen sich tatsächlich Vertreter verschiedener Welten ... Die 3-Typen-Lehre vermag schlüssig zu erklären, warum etwa eine Beziehungstyp-Mutter und ein Sachtyp-Kind sich auf den immer gleichen »Kriegsschauplätzen« wiederfinden. Darüber hinaus verdeutlicht sie, welcher Typ welche Sprache spricht und wie die einzelnen Charaktere sich gegenseitig behindern, aber auch fördern können. Aber nicht nur als Erklärungsmodell, sondern auch als Arbeitsgrundlage ist die Typologie hervorragend geeignet, um entspannte Beziehungen und eine harmonische Familienatmosphäre zu gestalten. Mit einem Fragebogen zur Typbestimmung und vielen kleinen (Vorlese-)Geschichten für Kinder im Vor- und Grundschulalter, die ihnen die Inhalte des Buchs aufschließen.
