Strange things always seem to happen when Harry Potter is around. Things that disturb his guardians, the Dursleys, who decidedly reject anything unusual. It is only when a letter arrives, delivered by a shaggy giant named Hagrid, that Harry learns the truth that will change his entire future: His parents were killed by the evil Lord Voldemort, and he, Harry, is a wizard. Taken to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Harry discovers a world full of magic, ghosts, Quidditch, and friends who will stand by him in all circumstances. But when Harry hears about a stone with great powers, he realizes that his school has its own dark secrets, and an adventure that will become legendary begins. These editions for adults, featuring beautiful cover art by Andrew Davidson, are now available for the first time as a hardcover.
