For twelve long years, the dread fortress of Azkaban held an infamous prisoner named Sirius Black. Convicted of killing thirteen people with a single curse, he was said to be the heir apparent to the Dark Lord, Voldemort.
 
Now he has escaped, leaving only two clues as to where he might be headed: Harry Potter's defeat of You-Know-Who was Black's downfall as well. And the Azkaban guards heard Black muttering in his sleep, "He's at Hogwarts . . . he's at Hogwarts."
 
Harry Potter isn't safe, not even within the walls of his magical school, surrounded by his friends. Because on top of it all, there may well be a traitor in their midst.

this is one of the best books I have ever read!!

I decided to read this book because my dad read it when he was a kid and he said it was good.

this book is really good and will keep you turning pages. This book is about harry potter finding out that sirius black is his godfather and whats more professor Lupin is a werewolf! Harry thinks that sirius black led voldemort to the potters but it was actually peter pettigrew.

Harry Potter the prisoner of azkaban is my favourite series in the Harry Potter film. This book is Harry's third year hogwarts book tells us the mystery that Harry still has someone in their family named Serious Black who is in prison of azkaban. In this book Harry once again fights Draco Malfoy, gets a new defence with dark arts teacher named Professor Lupin. In this book Harry gets one big fear which are: Death eaters these creatures are extremely dangerous and try to kiss you. Harry got this fear by playing quiddtich against huffapuff. In this book Harry find his patronous as a stag. Overall I enjoyed this book and will rate it 5/5. I hope one day people who haven't read this book enjoy and continue to love Harry Potter as a childhood memory.
