The Review:

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, by J. K. Rowling, is a profoundly serious story that explores death and dying, as well as grief, love, friendship, and redemption. It will make you weep for a variety of reasons, so be prepared and have tissues handy.

J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series has excellent character development on a grand scale, and I never noticed it before in this way, but now that I look back, I see how far all of the characters have progressed from what they used to be, and it happened gradually with each new book, they grew one year older, wiser, and stronger, and the way their thinking changed, and the problems they faced grew as well, and that is exactly how real-life progresses.

It's also a thrilling adventure, with the trio of companions on the lookout for Horcruxes while avoiding the Death Eaters. At the same time, there is plenty of potential for laughter and amusement; the Weasley twins, for example, manage to keep things at least a bit light-hearted. The Deathly Hallows revisits significant characters and locations from all six prior novels, with subtle connections to previous events or conversations from earlier volumes, making the book extremely fascinating to read. The majority of the loose ends from the previous novels will be resolved.

I'm presuming that everyone reading this line has already read all of the prior books, so I'll use spoilers in the same way that I did with some of the earlier novels.

Without Dumbledore's supervision, Harry Potter and his youthful friends, as well as members of the Order of the Phoenix, join the ultimate battle with Voldemort and his Death Eaters. They are on a mission to discover and destroy Voldemort's Horcruxes as well as the Deathly Hallows' secrets. What's the worst that might happen?

There is a lot of activity. In fact, readers will need to pay careful attention at times as they learn about Dumbledore and Snape's complicated pasts and come to comprehend the ambiguity, true allegiances, and goals of the two characters. The story comes to a strong and poignant finish in the final chapters.

This is a once-in-a-generation or maybe once-in-a-century series that has captivated the hearts and minds of so many people and left such an indelible mark on popular culture and imagination.

Overall, I think this is a fantastic and deserving finale to the series. I'm grateful for J.K. Rowling's books and the fantastic magical world she built. I only have two regrets: the first is that I started this series too late, when three books had already been published, and the second is not my fault; it was the author who finished the series. I'm hoping to find a series that spans hundreds of books, like the “TOR” series, and I'm going to review those someday, but not anytime soon, and who knows, I might start that task soon. However, it is debatable. Just comment if you want to know more about “TOR” and if you want me to review the series soon.

Final Thoughts:

The transformation of Harry Potter's tale from an 11-year-old just starting Hogwarts to a 17-year-old about to face Voldemort is quite astonishing. Harry has grown up, yet he's still a teenager, with all of his erratic adolescent emotions and anxieties. All of Harry's buddies have grown up as well.

At this point, I feel compelled to repeat myself about the Percy Jackson series by Rick Riordan. If you've finished with Harry Potter and are looking for something equally epic, I highly recommend this series. I am confident you will not be disappointed because it is the only series (aside from Harry Potter) that has received above 95 recommendation points or five stars for all of the books in the series.

Synopsis:

“'Give me Harry Potter,' said Voldemort's voice, 'and none shall be harmed. Give me Harry Potter, and I shall leave the school untouched. Give me Harry Potter, and you will be rewarded.'

As he climbs into the sidecar of Hagrid's motorbike and takes to the skies, leaving Privet Drive for the last time, Harry Potter knows that Lord Voldemort and the Death Eaters are not far behind. The protective charm that has kept Harry safe until now is broken, but he cannot keep hiding. The Dark Lord is breathing fear into everything Harry loves and to stop him Harry will have to find and destroy the remaining Horcruxes. The final battle must begin - Harry must stand and face his enemy...

Having now become classics of our time, the Harry Potter books never fail to bring comfort and escapism to readers of all ages. With its message of hope, belonging and the enduring power of truth and love, the story of the Boy Who Lived continues to delight generations of new readers.”
