Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - J.K Rowling
le 10/06/2008 - par Shanilara pour QLTO Il n'y a pas de commentaire, soyez le premier à réagir !The long-expected end of a wonderful story... an absolute page-turner, breathtaking and full of surprises.
We meet Harry again and for the last time while he is waiting in Privet Drive for the Order of the Phoenix to take him to safety, as the magical protection of the Dursley's home will come to an end on the day he turns 17. But he does not intend to go back to Hogwarts for his last year of school, as is expected of him. With his friends Ron and Hermione, he will start on a dangerous quest to end the threat of Voldemort's dominion over the world of wizards. And as he promised Dumbledore, he will not rest until He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named (and this euphemism takes a whole new meaning in the book) is dead and gone. But, as Voldemort takes control of the Ministry of Magic, then of Hogwarts, the price for helping the trio becomes dear, and safety, trust and allies become next to non-existent... and all of Voldemort's servants are intent on one and only one thing : finding Harry and destroying him.
I'll give you no more details, no more elements of the story ; if you want to know the end of the book without reading it, you can always use Le Parisien, who revealed it even before the release of the book - a feat I still find outrageous a year after (it's well known : woman = long memory, all the more for the bad things). As for me, I read it and was well content to do it, and if you liked the other books of the series, I can only advise you to do the same. Well written, fast-paced, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows introduces us a new Harry, more mature, more responsible, far from the brooding adolescent of the fifth book (you know, the one you would gladly have kicked some sense into). Step by step, he understands and accepts his destiny, helped by his two faithful friends, maybe less funny, but more touching than ever as they thread their way on the path towards adulthood.
An absolute must-read, for me the best of the series, where J.K Rowling not only offers us great moments of writing, unlikely laughs in the middle of dramatic events (you'll understand when you come to Trelawney's launching of crystal balls), but surprises us by not going anywhere near the whole batch of ends that was foreseen for her books. Her end is really hers, and it's great.
Thank her for being able to do that.
