Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
‘It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities’ Albus Dumbledore
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets sees Harry eagerly awaiting the end of his holidays with the dreadful Dursleys. However, a small, self-punishing house-elf warns him of mortal danger that awaits at Hogwarts. Ignoring the warning, Harry returns to the castle, where he hears a rumour about a Chamber of Secrets that allegedly holds unknown horrors for wizards of Muggle parentage.
As the school year progresses, students are discovered as though turned to stone, and a chilling warning appears painted on the wall. All eyes turn suspiciously to Harry, who is always found in the wrong place at the wrong time. Yet, something far darker remains to be unleashed.
These adult editions have been elegantly redesigned to feature Andrew Davidson’s exquisite woodcut cover artwork.
