The heart of Book 7 is a hero`s mission - not just in Harry`s quest for the Horcruxes, but in his journey from boy to man - and Harry faces more danger than that found in all six books combined, from the direct threat of the Death Eaters and you-know-who, to the subtle perils of losing faith in himself. Attentive readers would do well to remember Dumbledore`s warning about making the choice between "what is right and what is easy", and know that Rowling applies the same difficult principle to the conclusion of her series. While fans will find the answers to hotly speculated questions about Dumbledore, Snape, and you-know-who, it is a testament to Rowling`s skill as a storyteller that even the most astute and careful reader will be taken...

This title is edited, along with an introduction, by David Stuart Davies. Have you ever heard of the fascination of terror? This is a unique collection of strange stories from the cunning pen of Wilkie Collins, author of The Woman in White and The Moonstone . The Star attraction is the novella - The Haunted Hotel , a clever combination of detective and ghost story set in Venice, a city of grim waterways, dark shadows and death.
