For twelve long years, the dread fortress of Azkaban held an infamous prisoner named Sirius Black. Convicted of killing thirteen people with a single curse, he was said to be the heir apparent to the Dark Lord, Voldemort.
Now he has escaped, leaving only two clues as to where he might be headed: Harry Potter's defeat of You-Know-Who was Black's downfall as well. And the Azkaban guards heard Black muttering in his sleep, "He's at Hogwarts . . . he's at Hogwarts."
Harry Potter isn't safe, not even within the walls of his magical school, surrounded by his friends. Because on top of it all, there may well be a traitor in their midst.

grade 6, stuff like that, name(not real name) Blazer: This book is a good book that is full of adventures and magic and not unicorns(unicorns in first book, Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone) but this book defies science and nature and reality. The book is about a kid named Harry Potter who is not safe because a madman named Sirius Black is on the loose. Sirius was sent to a place called Azkaban, the most confined prison in all of reality. Sirius broke out and is even on the muggle news (muggles are a non magic person like you or me). Sirius killed three people with one killing curse. Harry must find a safe place to stay while Black is on the loose. Harry goes to his school, Hogwarts and finds out that Sirius breaks in. He held a knife at Ron Weasly, Harry's best friend. Sirius Black is actually a good guy and tried to kill Petegrew in the form of Scabbers the rat.
Harry potter and the prisoner of azkaban is awesome! I like it because everybody thought that sirius black was a murderer but really he was a really good guy he never killed no one he was set up. And he is Harry's uncle! I really recommend this book.
My favorite part of the story is when Harry went back in time and saved his god dad from Azkaban. I did not like it when it sounded like they killed a animal .I was shocked when I found out it was still alive.i recommend this book 5 out of 5 stars.
WARNING: YOU WILL GET HOOKED TO THIS BOOK I have read every Harry Potter book and have watched every movie. I used to think Harry Potter was for nerds (which I now understand is not a nice term) but if that is so, I am proud to consider myself a nerd.
