Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows


Author: J K Rowling

These books are my guilty pleasure. They have fun clues to solve along the way and are familiar.

The series is useful for descriptions of setting, Latin and Greek derived words and names and looking at adaptation. It also explores reputation, primarily through Severus Snape.
