Book Review of The Harry Potter Effect

The Harry Potter Effect
AldersgateBooks avatar reviewed on + 33 more book reviews


J K Rowling's Harry Potter series is uncontested as the greatest children's book phenomenon of all time. The films that followed have served to widen the appeal even further.

Christians have been notoriously divided over Harry. John Houghton looks at 'the Harry Potter effect' both in the wider culture and in the Christian community. His considered critique offers timely and valuable insight for fans and detractors alike, as well as parents, teachers, and all those who work with children.
