Harry Potter - A Journey Through A History of Magic

This book is like an encyclopaedia for Potterheads with the background of various ideas and theories propogated in the books, raw u edited texts written by J K Rowling herself and other factoids and historical facts about magical objects and practices. An amazing read overall

J K Rowling has proved yet again that she left no stone unturned while creating the Harry Potter series. In this book you find insights of her research about world magic that would have been done when she was writing the majestic series. Very good illustration as well.

A must have for every Harry Potter fan. The book is very well made and the illustrations are breathtaking. At about 500 rupees, it is a good buy.

Very nice It's appropriate for every potterhead It is a simplified version of the orginal A HISTORY OF MAGIC I love it so much❤🤩

Loved the book. The only think I didn't like was the packaging. They sent the book in a thin paper packet. These books are collector's edition and when we buy such books that cost a huge amount of money. You could at least put some bubble wrap.

I am a potter head, and as much as I would like my son to love HP, he could not care less.. So bought this book to try him get into HP but it is me who is totally in love with it. Specially the small notes, author's scribes etc. Makes the connection much more personal.

Received this amazing book today at a great price of ₹532. This is a must-have for all Potterheads out there. The images, information and paper quality is outstanding! Go for it coz it's worth it!

Got on time and in perfect condition. Don't think k just buy it if you're a Harry potter fan and even if you aren't ..I'm sure you'll love to find out about the magical world.

Ce livre est très beau. Belles mises en pages et couleurs. C'est vraiment un livre qu'il faut posséder si on est un grand fan d'Harry Potter.

The book had great pictures and interesting facts. Arrived quickly and in perfect condition.

I’m an avid HP fan, as so many are! This book is fascinating. It has original, handwritten manuscrips by Rowling and some original sketches she created. It goes into the history behind some of the characters, plants, potions, and historically based ideas that were referenced in the book. It’s a GORGEOUS book. As an illustrator/graphic designer, this book is so very well illustrated and designed. I checked it out from my library as soon as it came in. I loved it so much that I ended up purchasing one for myself. I can see myself reading this and soaking in the illustrations for many years to come. The price is astonishing. It’s worth more than what I paid, IMO!

This is a curious book, as everything about Harry Potter is curious. But it is a very good and much appreciated book as well. It takes you through the history of magic. In that sense it is actually a great reference for those interested in historical topics and myths. The book makes an ideal great gift for muggles and budding wizards alike that want to solidify their base knowledge about magic. The 144 page book is filled with colourful illustrations and art. So it is all very nicely presented. This makes it a great addition to our daughter’s growing Harry potter collection and book shelf in particular. The book addresses ancients myths and mythical creatures, astronomers, mermaids, unicorns, medieval witchcraft and alchemy - all of course tying into to Harry’s world of magic. There is a whole background story about dragons and brooms. Then there are detailed explanations about Hogwarts classes like the Defence Against the Dark Arts, Divination and Herbs. Furthermore there are sketches and manuscripts from the grand wizard herself; J.K Rowling as well. So it is really a very rich, complete book. The book includes interactive instruction to create your own ‘magical ‘ potion like invisible ink as well. My Potter-crazed daughter wrote me a letter with this and I can confirm the text was absolutely invisible, as the included picture demonstrates. Note that it it was produced along with the British Library to support the exhibition Harry Potter: A History of Magic, we sadly missed that. However there was also a tv documentary that can be found online.

Muy buena compra, indispensable para cualquier fan de Harry Potter. Las ilustraciones son preciosas.
