Synopsis

`It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities' Albus Dumbledore Harry Potter can't wait for his holidays with the dire Dursleys to end. But a small, self-punishing house-elf warns Harry of mortal danger awaiting him at Hogwarts. Returning to the castle nevertheless, Harry hears a rumour about a Chamber of Secrets, holding unknown horrors for wizards of Muggle parentage. Then students are found as though turned to stone, and a terrible warning is discovered painted on the wall. The chief suspect - always in the wrong place - is Harry. But something much darker has yet to be unleashed. These adult editions have been stylishly redesigned to showcase Andrew Davidson's beautiful woodcut cover artwork.

Funny, imaginative, magical ... In the 2020s, thirty-something book-lovers will know each other by smug references to Diagon Alley and Quidditch * The Times *
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, unlike many sequels, is as good as its predecessor ... Hogwarts is a creation of genius * Times Literary Supplement *
One of the greatest literary adventures of modern times * Sunday Telegraph *
Spellbinding, enchanting, bewitching stuff * Mirror *
