The war against Voldemort is not going well; even the Muggles have been affected. Dumbledore is absent from Hogwarts for long stretches of time, and the Order of the Phoenix has already suffered losses. And yet . . . As with all wars, life goes on. Sixth-year students learn to Apparate. Teenagers flirt and fight and fall in love. Harry receives some extraordinary help in Potions from the mysterious Half-Blood Prince. And with Dumbledore's guidance, he seeks out the full, complex story of the boy who became Lord Voldemort -- and thus finds what may be his only vulnerability.

Summary: Harry Potter's Princely Adventure!
Comment: In the summer of 2005, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was released. Who was the Half-Blood Prince? Why is Severus Snape hanging out with Death Eaters in Chapter 1? Yet Dumbledore trusts him explicitly. Why is that?
There was much controversy when this book was published. As I recall, the author wanted the text to be secret (understandably) yet there were reviews, as from the New York Times and other publications that ruined it for many readers.
Well, I won't do that to you. Assuming you're one of the few who haven't read the book yet!
The book centers around Harry Potter of course, using his Invisibility Cloak and the Marauder's Map to track Malfoy, who's been up to something.
Being a sixth year student, he learns how to Apparate (appear in other places) and gets to be the captain of the Quidditch team. He also falls in love but refrains from "snogging" as his 'best mate" Ron is doing. Fun teenage hijinx without the maudlin text of a Twilight Meyers novel.
We again visit the Pensieve memory vat, explore He Who Must Not Be Named's childhood as Tom Riddle, who his parents were and what a Horcrux is.
Dumbledore tells Harry the main power he has that Voldemort does not have is his capacity to love, though Harry considers this just outright silly.
We meet zombies floating in a lake, ditzy Trelawney, werewolves and a new Ministry of Magic minister who wants Harry to be their poster child!
It's a darker novel, murder and blood, much more so than in the last novel. This book sold more than any other Harry Potter book up to 2005 at nine million copies in 24 hours!
See the Wiki article for the plot, but be warned, it contains immense Spoilers!

Summary: Great quality.
Comment: I am an avid lover of the Harry Potter franchise. That said, this review should be taken as product quality.
The book was bought used and with the exception of crease lines on the spine, is flawless. It looks brand new and looks as if it has only been read once. I received the product by the estimated delivery date. I had no problems and fully recommend using this outlet.

Summary: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince: Book Review
Comment: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is the 6th novel of the Harry Potter series by J. K. Rowling, and probably the best of the series that I've read so far. This is my favorite of the series, because it has many exciting moments that always seem to make you stand out on-end with excitement! The fact that you don't know what could possibly happen next helps the book be even more exciting! I remember when reading this book, I could barely put it down due to all of the action and excitement! Just the fact alone of mysterious memories and the betrayal of Hogwarts teachers seems to contain so much excitement, it may just even spoil the whole book for some people! I definitely suggest that you read this book as soon as you finish all of he other books before it!

Summary: ...and better and better and better...
Comment: Now, THIS is my favorite in the series!
I began reading these books with my wife last November, somewhere halfway though the Goblet of Fire we stopped reading to each other so that we could read them at our own pace, that was a few weeks ago and I have since zoomed through to this one.
This is the book that I felt The Order of the Phoenix should have been, where darkness really does begin to fall upon the wizarding world created by Rowling. There is a very predictable twist toward the end that we all saw coming since book one, but I was not able to guess who the Half-Blood Prince was and was surprised and excited when it was revealed.
There isn't much in the way of new characters and obviously the story focus' mainly on Harry, Hermione and Ron, though since the direction that The Order of the Phoenix took us I had hope to read much more of Neville and Luna.
I don't see how this book can be disliked by Harry Potter fans, as it is just as exciting, if not more so, and a more informative glimpse into the Harry Potter saga. This book has now become my favorite in the series, and I'd be surprised if fans of HP don't feel similarly.
