More about the book

Harry can't wait for his holiday with the dire Dursleys to end. But a small, self-punishing house-elf warns Harry of a mortal danger awaiting him at Hogwarts school. Returning to the castle nevertheless, Harry hears a rumour about a chamber of secrets, holding unknown horrors for wizards of Muggle parentage. Now someone is casting spells that paralyse people, making them seem dead, and a terrible warning is found painted on the wall. The chief suspect-and always in the wrong place-is Harry. But something much darker has yet to be unleashed."Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, unlike many sequels, is as good as its predecessor ... Hogwarts is a creation of genius." -Times Literary Supplement"An intricately woven, highly imaginative tale ... cleverly textured, sophisticated fiction." -Scotland on Sunday"It seemed so unlikely that she could replicate the imaginative power, emotional intensity and entrancing complexity of the prototype, that I received the draft of volume two with trepidation. It's good to be wrong sometimes." -Glasgow Herald"A wonderful creation ... The comic handling of the material and the insight into the child's world are fresh and magical in every sense ... the new Harry Potter is in my suitcase ready for my holiday." -Ian Hislop, Sunday Telegraph
