    It was such an intense glare that the blond boy actually paled and stepped back, but then he recovered and quickly turned around, trying to find a new target. His eyes rested on Harry. "Well, the rumours are true. Harry Potter has come to Hogwarts," He stalked forward, ignoring the whispers in response to Harry's name.

    The elements of storytelling based on fantasy began in historic times as a way to explain the unknown. Literature has evolved since those times and many of the unknowns have now been explained through rational scientific methodologies.

Before reading this book, I just thought of owls as creatures that delivered mail at Hogwarts in the Harry Potter series. But in reading this book I have come to realize that owls, and all species, have personalities and emotions of their own. Wesley is a warm, quirky, and loving owl with a playful nature. In the book, O-Brien…

    happened with him that interfered with their plans, or he could have done something that got himself into trouble or got himself injured. This shows in Harry's creation of Dumbledore's Army. Due to Harry's choice of a name, Dumbledore has to flee Hogwarts to avoid being taken away because they're breaking the rules and the Ministry tried to crack down on them for doing that. Another example of people intentionally being kept in the dark with this motif is through the secret of magic. Witches and…

On the surface this seems to be almost a direct mirror of the events at the end of The Hobbit, but, from this particular distribution of rewards the reader does in fact gain the satisfaction that seems to be missing from…
