It's the pivotal fourth novel in the seven-part saga of a young wizard's coming of age. The thickest. The juiciest yet. Harry Potter turns fourteen. But will all his friends? Rumors have persisted that one of the characters may not see the conclusion of this novel, something the author has refused either to confirm or deny. But we who love Ron, Hermione, Hagrid...even pitiful Neville Longbottom...wait anxiously to see if they will make it through safely. No one's fate is certain when Volde -- excuse me -- He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named is part of the picture.
What is certain is that a novel of excruciating suspense awaits, leavened by J. K. Rowling's inimitable sense of humor and the burgeoning details of her magical world. Whether it's taking a front-row seat at the International Quidditch World Cup, or meeting the new Defense-Against-the-Dark-Arts teacher, or finding out if Harry really does start a romance with Cho Chang, fans of the history-making boy-wizard will find their thirst for Hogwarts adventure slaked deliciously...at least for a little while!

Harry Potter, the boy who lived, is going into his fourth magical year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He is very excited to learn new spells. Also classes to go to. He was going to be out of the Dursley household, For an Entire year! The days of Summer are counting down and the Quidditch World Cup is coming up soon!
But little does Harry know, his worst enemies are rising and the world is darkening. Harry receives the most dangerous surprise that he didn't expect. He gets to prove that he can do anything anyone else can. This fantasy story by J.K Rowling is the fourth in the series and is the best so far! I would rate this book with 5 stars!
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is a delightfully scary book. The plot twists are everywhere. The tension is everywhere. The heartbreak is everywhere. Harry starts his summer by going to the Quidditch World Cup with Hermione and the Weasley's. After the tournament, Death Eaters (Followers of Voldemort) show up. Everything is chaos. The Death Eaters are hurting people. People are fleeing. Harry, Ron, and Hermione find a safe patch of woods and sit down. Hermione relates how she saw that people have spells on their house elves so that they cannot run away. They see the Dark Mark in the sky, and Winky is blamed for it. At Hogwarts, things are just as chaotic. When Harry finds out their is to be a Triwizard Tournament held at Hogwarts for all students who are seventeen. Two other schools come, schools which are EXTREMELY intimidating. Students who want to participate can put their names into the goblet of fire. When it is time for the goblet of fire to choose who can play, Harry's name comes out, along with Cedric, Fleur, and Victor. He must compete. Harry battles dragons, saves people from mermaids, and goes through an intricate maze. He and Cedric decide to share the glory of winning the Triwizard cup. It is a portkey! When they grab it, they are transported to a graveyard where Cedric is killed, Harry battles Voldemort, and Harry's parents save him. He goes back through the portkey to Hogwarts. Harry figures out that Mad Eye Moody is not him at all. It was Bartimus Crouch Jr. He is taken to Azkaban. Voldemort has come back, but nobody believes Harry, except for Dumbledore, and Harry's friends. This is a great book, through and through. Thank you, J K Rowling for your wonderful series!
I decided to read this book because EVERYONE at my school would talk about it, so I decided to read the book and start from the beginning. It is so interesting and fun, with great details. I also have the audio books for 2 Harry Potter books for book one and book to, and I'm interested in selling. =)
Harry Potter An The Goblet Of Fire is the first "Scary" movie of the series, due to the fact that it is rated "M". I find this quite interesting, as it has a lot of twists. This movie is about Harry Potter entering the Triwizard Tournament, which he and 3 other Champions compete, all from different wizarding schools.
Do you like fiction stories? Than Harry Potter is the series for you. In this review I will be talking about the fourth book in the series, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling.
Harry Potter (protagonist) is a 14 year old boy about to start his fourth year in Hogwarts school of Witch and Wizardry. He stays at his aunt and uncle's house for the summer and gets a letter delivered by owl. It was from his friends mom saying that they want to take him to the Quidditch World Cup and let him stay at their house for the rest of the summer. One of the conflicts is that they go to the World Cup and something happens after. It's something called the dark mark. Is it a sign of Harry's death or a sign of his arch nemesis Voldemort (antagonist)? Another conflict is in the beginning of the year the school of Hogwarts finds out that the triwizard tournament will be held at Hogwarts this year. Three schools compete and each school has student 17 and older to put their names in the goblet of fire to have a chance to be chosen and be the school champion. They will need to complete three tasks and who ever gets the most points on the tasks will be the triwizard champion. Who will be the three school champions and who will win the triwizard tournament? Will Harry survive yet again another year of Hogwarts? I encourage you to read this book and series.
