The Sorcerer's Companion: A Guide to the Magical World of Harry Potter
Elizabeth Kronzek, Allan Zola Kronzek
A great book for enjoyment as well as research for beginning writing topics.
I thought the first Harry Potter book would be the one I'd love above all others, but this book was life-changing for me. The characters are unforgettable and so perfectly scripted. I'll love this book for the rest of my life.
I began this series when I was very young and the captivating uniqueness of it just gets better and better throughout each book.
This book I picked up in Baltimore when I realized that day that I would love the underwater world forever, whales particularly. I had no idea if the book would even interest me long enough, but I've must of re-read it a million time since then. The beautiful images of the author's new world made me feel that I lived through Isabel with her adventures.
One of my favored novels on one of my best-loved topics to learn about: Greek mythology. Without this series, I would've never understood the myths so well, nor have I found any other books that explain it so clearly.
I just picked up this book and had no idea what a powerfully active adventure it would turn out to be.
Between Scarlett O'Hara, Melanie Wilkes, and Rhett Butler...how could this book not be so beloved? Its beauty has no end, even for a modern generation.
I recommend this book to anyone who fears to immediately jump in to any Shakespeare classic; it provides an unbeatable, fast-paced account of the celebrated author's major life details.
