- Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (Book 3)
-
- J.K. Rowling
- This third book in the Harry Potter series transitions from the primarily mystery and adventure plots of Sorceror's Stone and Chamber of Secrets to a greater emphasis on Harry's emotional state, personified by the soul-sucking dementors that force him to relive the darkest memories of his life just by being nearby.
Prisoner of Azkaban is the book in which Harry finds himself working at becoming stronger instead of relying, as he had previously, mainly on what natural talent and luck he had, as he takes struggles to overcome the dementors in private lessons with Lupin. This trend will continue through the other books, and Harry will increasingly stand alone in a world in which he was already singled out. -
