From her first moment at Merryweather High, Melinda Sordino knows she's an outcast.

Now 15 years old and in his fifth year at Hogwort's, Harry has much on his mind. Terrible nightmares are interrupting his sleep, forcing him to wake up screaming. Worse still, the terrifying presence of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named is growing stronger. Add to this the disappearance of Hagrid and the fast-approaching Ordinary Wizarding Level exams, and the boy wizard's fifth year promises to be a great challenge.

Kit includes paperback book and audio CD.

Harry, wand in hand, is in his sixth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. A great war is raging between good and evil, the "Second War" prophesied at the conclusion of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. There is no doubt that He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named has returned. The New York Times Book Review praises the author: "... funny, moving and impressive ...Like Harry Potter, [J.K. Rowling] has soared beyond her modest Muggle surroundings to achieve something quite special."
