Book Pyre

Second to the last book. This one is by far the most intense, eye opening, and interesting book of them all. The rest of the world is now aware that Lord V has returned, and Harry has several times stopped his efforts to wreck havoc, but he is still not believed by the adults trying to run the show. Gone is the brooding, depressed Harry from the last book, now he is pissed, frustrated with bumbling wizards in positions of authority, and for the first time seriously taking control of his destiny. Dumbledore reveals to him what has been happening all along (it was not what anyone thought) and gives him direction and a plan for the final battle. The next book will be the last one, and it is going to have to be pretty impressive to tie up the mess everyone finds themselves in at the end of this one.
