S'il vous est jamais arrivé de vous demander quelle est l'origine du vif d'or, comment les cognards sont apparus ou pourquoi les wigtown wanderers portent l'image d'un couteau de boucher sur leur robe, vous devez lire le quidditch à travers les âges.
Cette édition limitée est la reproduction exacte du volume conservé à la bibliothèque de pouldard oú il est consulté presque chaque jour par les fanatiques de quidditch.

Harry Potter is furious that he has been abandoned at the Dursleys' house for the summer, for he suspects that Voldemort is gathering an army, that he himself could be attacked, and that his so-called friends are keeping him in the dark. Finally rescued by wizard bodyguards, he discovers that Dumbledore is regrouping the Order of the Phoenix - a secret society first formed years ago to fight Voldemort. But the Ministry of Magic is against the Order, lies are being spread by the wizards' tabloid, the Daily Prophet, and Harry fears that he may have to take on this epic battle against evil alone.

These adult editions with glorious jacket art by Andrew Davidson are now available in hardback for the first time. Lire la suite Fermer

Le classique le plus emprunté à la Bibliothèque de Poudlard !Découvrez tout ce qu'il faut savoir sur le sport préféré des sorciers : l'apparition du vif d'or, l'évolution des balais volants, les équipes mythiques et les matchs qui ont marqué l'histoire souvent hilarante de ce noble jeu !

Harry entre en 5e année à Poudlard, mais il n'a jamais été si anxieux. L'adolescence, la perspective des examens et ces étranges cauchemars... Car le Seigneur des Ténèbres est de retour. Le ministère de la Magie semble ne pas prendre cette menace au sérieux, contrairement à Dumbledore. La résistance s'organise alors autour de Harry qui va devoir compter sur le courage et la fidélité de ses amis de toujours...

Bienvenue à Pagford, petite bourgade anglaise paisible et charmante : ses maisons cossues, son ancienne abbaye, sa place de marché pittoresque... et son lourd fardeau de secrets. Car derrière cette façade idyllique, Pagford est en proie aux tourmentes les plus violentes, et les conflits font rage sur tous les fronts, à la faveur de la mort soudaine de son plus éminent notable. Entre nantis et pauvres, enfants et parents, maris et femmes, ce sont des années de rancunes, de rancoeurs, de haines et de mensonges, jusqu'alors soigneusement dissimulés, qui vont éclater au grand jour et, à l'occasion d'une élection municipale en apparence anodine, faire basculer Pagford dans la tragédie.
