However, life for the students of Hogwarts continues and with it, Harry and his friends learn and practice their magic, and do what teenagers do - fall out, make up, and even fall in love. With the help of the ‘Half-Blood Prince’, Harry receives some much-needed assistance with his potions. As the story unfolds, Harry also learns more about how Voldemort came to be and in doing so discovers his only weakness.
The sixth book in the Harry Potter series will not disappoint. Compelling, action-packed, and very dark in places, it weaves different plotlines together and is full of the surprises, friendships, danger, and humour that we have come to expect from this award-winning series.
