Harry Potter is my favourite book series. It’s written by J.K. Rowling whom I think is the most brilliant author ever. I love the entire series but I have to say that Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is my favourite. It’s about Harry’s godfather Sirius Black who is believed to have betrayed Harry’s parents to Voldemort who killed them. But it was one of their other friends named Peter Pettigrew who betrayed them to Voldemort.
After Harry runs away from his aunt and uncle’s house, he hears about Sirius Black as a mass murderer and a follower of Voldemort. But in the end Harry realizes the truth in an epic adventure, with help from his friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. The story also reveals to Harry his father’s childhood. It’s a truly enchanting story and one of those books which you can’t put down.
