La relectura del primer libro fue maravillosa pero esta ha estado a otro nivel.
Me acordaba muy bien de casi todo porque es mi libro preferido de la saga, pero aún así no he podido disfrutarlo más. La acción no decae en ningún momento, el argumento en sí y el desenlace para mi es el más redondo de toda la saga y en fin, nuevos personajes como Sirius y Lupin ponen la guinda.
Bueno, y luego está Hermione, que es más QUEEN que nunca.
FAN, muy fan de todo.
La edición ilustrada por cierto, es una verdadera brutalidad, las ilustraciones hacen muuuucho más que acompañar, os lo aseguro, y me va a doler no poder seguir la relectura en estas ediciones...

I haven’t read this since I was a kid. So many details that I’d forgotten. I really enjoyed getting to revisit this!

I'm so sad it only gets darker from here on out but I love the way everything played out! Wishing Harry and his friends the best. Can't wait to read the other books!

I've been reading all of the HP books to my 3 oldest kids, and they love them. Just finished this one. Except for The Sorcerer's Stone, this is probably my favorite. To be honest, they're all amazing.

Quicker read than the rest and a bit simpler on the plot as a result but good leisure reading.  It is the Oz of its generation.

Prisoner of Azkaban is the third book in the original group of Harry Potter novels, thus it is set in the student's third year at Hogwarts. The book introduces several new characters, including the new defense against the dark arts professor, Professor Lupin, the titular prisoner of Azkaban (which is the wizard prison), Sirius Black, who is out to find Harry, and the Dementors, the guards at Azkaban who are trying to track down Black but also have a huge effect on Harry any time they come near him.

This book is significantly longer than the first two, and as such, it has more content cut out for the movie adaptation than the first two books did. For example, the book has two additional Qiddich matches that were not shown in the movie, and there was more to the Buckbeak storyline than was shown in the movie. Also, some events played out differently in the book than they did in the movie, such as when Hermione decks Draco, Harry facing the Boggart for the first time, the circumstances of Harry getting his new broom, and the climax of the book when all is revealed has a lot more detail than was shown in the movie. And, some characters that were introduced in this book did not show up on film until the Goblet of Fire movie.

Overall, the book is very well written, and done in a similar (yet a bit darker) tone than the first two. As most know, Rowling anticipated that kids reading the books would age as they were released so she made them darker and more "adult-like" as each book was released. So, there is a lot more talk of death in this one and we learn more details of the night that Harry's parents died than in the first two books. While it is technically a book for kids, in the 10-13-year-old range, adults can easily enjoy it. Even people like me who were older than the target reader group when the books were originally published. I had seen almost all the movies before I ever read the books for the first time and I think I enjoy the books more having already seen the movies. Even though the book is longer than the first two (435 pages), it is still a fairly quick read, depending, of course, how fast you read and how much time you have to read. If you are a fan of the movies or the first two books, it is definitely a must-read.

シリーズの中でも1番好きなアズカバンです。ペーパーバックはすぐに紙が劣化するのでこれで3冊目の購入。この表紙はとても気に入っています。
内容はもちろん何度読んでも面白いです。

I am so late to the "Harry Potter party," but I am reading these books with my teenage nephew - and loving them!  This is the third book, and I do believe it was the best one so far...riveting, with good character development. It was easy to "buy in" to the story and truly feel the suspense and every other emotion of the characters. Great read!

Bon produit arrivé vite comme d'habitude. Je regrette juste que l'on ne puisse pas regrouper les frais de port lorsque l'on fait plusieurs achats simultanés.
