The epicentre of magical fiction. - By: Mr. D. A. F. Weaver, 17 Jun 2008 
I opened this novel prepared for a gradual deceleration of plot & character developments - after alll, such a slow-down happens regularly in series of books as long as the Harry Potter series. But I was proved completely wrong within the first ten pages of this enchanting novel. Rowling must be commended for her capacity to develop the character of Potter into a mature, young man, who has himself the ability to take the role of protagonist so well in this epic book. I would go so far to say that this penultimate novel rivals the greatness of the very introduction that sets Harry Potter so further apart from other characters in fantasy fiction, 'Harry Potter & the Philosopher's Stone'. Another work from Rowling to read & reread with great pleasure.
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince on Audio - By: James Lee, 31 May 2008 
The book is reallly awesome. Don't get me wrong, I just like Harry.
Anyway, I found this audio cd collection somewhere & I just can't stop listening to it. Stephen Fry's readings always give the books by J. K. Rowling a little kick. Once you start hearing the story read to you by Mr. Fry you read along, or follow, the text written by the acclaimed novellist.
The film is coming out soon, but I think the filmmakers should have chosen an older person to play Dumbledore. Apart from that, the original cast glows like an on-glowing light.

brill book - By: Mehajabeen Farid, 13 Jan 2008 
Harry's sixth year in school is filled with problems & adventures. There Snape is the Defence against Dark Arts teacher & the Potions teacher has something important that is needed by Harry. Slughorn is very impressed by Harry's potion making & rewards him with a lucky potion. He has parties for good students which to every single one Harry & Hermione are invited but not Ron. The guests can bring along a friend but Harry has more important things to do with Professor Dumbledore including seeing & visiting the past of Voldermort & trying to trace the Seven Horcruxes. Fleur (Beauxbatons champion) & Bill (Ron's brother) get engaged & they start planning the wedding. Near the end of the book, someone who is much unexpected & trusted kills Dumbledore. But who? Read the book to find out! Rating: 10
