harry potter and the deathly hallows 1 review

It was like holding the holy grail when my copy arrived (pre-ordered of course) and I savoured the moment before I actually opened the book this would be the last time I would hold a Harry Potter book that I had not read, once I had finished this, that would be it, no more. To say it was eagerly awaited would be an understatement. The seventh and final instalment of the Harry Potter series sold 11 million copies in the first 24 hour of its release. With Voldemort ever closer our hero must not hesitate the final battle is coming and no one knows what the outcome will be. With three gifts, bequeathed by Dumbledore to our intrepid trio, they set off on their deadliest task yet and know that this could be the end of everything they hold dear, even themselves.

Voldemort continues his rise and nowhere seems to be safe anymore. Harry is also searching for the answers he feels Dumbledore has left unanswered and his feelings for his beloved old headmaster veer from anger and bitterness to painful loss. Harry has left Hogwarts to dedicate himself to the quest for final Horcruxes, together with his friends Ron and Hermione.
