Revue de presse

Rowling has woven together clues, hints and characters from previous books into a prodigiously rewarding, suspenseful conclusion (Guardian)

Funny, imaginative, magical . . . Rowling has woken up a whole generation to reading. In the 2020s, thirty-something book-lovers will know each other by smug references to Diagon Alley and Quidditch --(The Times)

And you thought wizardry was for children. Harry Potter will make you think again. He casts his spells on grown-ups too --(James Naughtie)

The most remarkable publishing sensation for a generation . . . the story is told with such momentum, imagination and irrepressible humour that it can captivate both adults and children --(Daily Express)
