Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban follows Harry into his third year at Hogwarts, where a mass-murderer and supposed Voldemort ally named Sirius Black has escaped and is believed to be hunting him. Dementors patrol the school grounds, a Divination teacher reads death in his tea leaves, and the threat of danger feels closer than ever. If this is your wavelength, you're drawn to fantasy worlds with genuine menace, moral ambiguity, and the question of whether the people you fear are really what they seem.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is a fantasy novel by British author J. K. Rowling. The third novel in the Harry Potter series, it follows the young wizard Harry Potter during his third year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. With his friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, Harry investigates Sirius Black, an escaped prisoner who is believed to be one of Lord Voldemort's allies.
