3.0 out of 5 stars Not quite sure, 5 Sep 2007

By	Mrs. Emily L. Uchelvich "Beautiful books" (UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Book 7) [Children's Edition] (Hardcover)

I am a huge fan of the Harry Potter series and have read this book a couple of times to really take it in.

Certainly the darkest book of the series, this is at some points quite frightening, even for an adult. Not sure how they will make this film accessible to children.

On the whole the main storyline is actually very good, from the wedding to the ending there is a purpose to the story which becomes clear after a couple of reads.

I can understand the negative reviews, as there are certain parts that definately go on for too long and make the reader loose interest. It almost seems like JK was trying to fill some space, where the book didnt need it.

The ending was approprite and anything more extravagent would have made this series even harder to let go. JK has produced an amazing set of books that will be appreciated for years and years to come, but i think that she has steered away from the childrens book that this once was, and has firmly cemented this book into the adult section.

Overall another really good book, but i feel that it was missing the spark that the earlier books had. However the last few chapters are the most explosive that she has ever written and she really should be congratulated for that!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great End to a Glorious Series, 15 Oct 2007

By	Mike London "MAC" (Oxford, UK) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Book 7) [Children's Edition] (Hardcover)

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Probably the best of the series. Rowling finally unfurls all of her resolutions (well, most of them anyway) to her intricate plotlines she has so successfully nurtured throughout the seven books.

The book is very fast paced, there are a lot of actions sequences, and you can tell everyone is playing for keeps this time. And yes, there deaths and tortures. Lots of them!

The ending, especially the scene involving Hagrid and Harry, is one of the most wrenching scenes in the entire series. The last few chapters will have you speed-reading to find out what happened next. Snape, obviously, has an important role, and we finally get the answers to his loyalties. While some complain that we don't get a lot of Snape until the very end of the novel, she has built his character so successfully we don't need to see a lot of him in this novel.

While the Epilogue has gotten a lot of people mad, it does give us a little (very little) snapshot of what happened after. Still, I think there's almost a novel's worth of material you could write about in the reconstruction after Voldemort's fall. Rowling has given further information in interviews, webchats, etc, about what happened to the characters after the end of book seven.

Now that we finally have the entire series at last, I can only applaud Rowling's unflagging invention. This is indeed a series for the ages

5.0 out of 5 stars unbeatable, 14 Aug 2007

By	loza "Laura" (england) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Book 7) [Adult Edition] (Hardcover)

Amazing how some book can be so good that when you've finished them you get filled up with a sadness and nostalgia that you cant describe. this is one of them.
absoloutly gripping from the first sentence to the last, harry potter and the deathly hallows completes harry's journey in the wonderful, sometimes sad, incredibly dangerous world of magic.
unlike the other books, this novel is full of destruction, death and loss. It doesnt even have the spirit-lifting moments of humor for us to depend on. however, i think this book is enough fast moving that you dont think about it too much and you just become engrossed with the charecters lives. to tell you the truth i find it impossible to fault this book. a 100% must read, and best harry potter ever.
