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.

I LOVE this book!! :-)

At first, I thought Sirius Black was the baddie, twist ending. Those of you who haven't read the book probably don't know what I'm talking about, read the book and you'll find out.

gret story

It was GREAT!

i have read all the books and out of them all this one was my fav. i rate it 5 stars!

Third book of Harry Potter series. Very interesting and full of dementors and how to get rid of them. J. K. Rowling introduces Sirius Black, Harry's old Godfather.

This book is really wonderful!! It has great characters and dialogue. This is my favorite year so far. I have read 1,2.4, and I am reading the fifth one right now. It really gets into your head. It has pictures in each chapter, but doesn't have it in the middle of them. In my opinion, I like that it doesn't have any pictures. You can put your own image in your head. Imagine how everything looks like. I do that, and I sometimes don't want to stop reading. I will feel really sad when I'm done with the whole series. Sometimes I even reread each book to read my favorite lines. I recommend this book to everyone.
