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.

My favorite part of the story is when Harry went back in time and saved his god dad from Azkaban. I did not like it when it sounded like they killed a animal .I was shocked when I found out it was still alive.i recommend this book 5 out of 5 stars.

WARNING: YOU WILL GET HOOKED TO THIS BOOK I have read every Harry Potter book and have watched every movie. I used to think Harry Potter was for nerds (which I now understand is not a nice term) but if that is so, I am proud to consider myself a nerd.

it was great !!!!!!!!

this is a good book also

This is the first big chapter book I read by myself. I wanted to read it because my sisters really loved it and I watched the movie. The book is even better than the movie. I really like the magic stuff that happens in the book. It would be fun to be a wizard and go to Hogwarts like Harry and his friends.

I love how he always gets involved with the magical world!
