Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

 

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is the sixth book in the Harry Potter series. It was released July 16, 2005. It has 30 chapters. The book jacket has the following story line:

The war against Voldemort is not going well: even Muggle governments are noticing. Ron scans the obituary pages of the Daily Prophet, looking for familiar names. Dumbledore is absent from Hogwarts for long stretches of time, and the Order of the Phoenix has already suffered losses.

And yet . . .

As in all wars, life goes on. Sixth-year students learn to Apparate — and lose a few eyebrows in the process. The Weasley twins expand their business. Teenagers flirt and fight and fall in love. Classes are never straightforward, though Harry receives some extraordinary help from the mysterious Half-Blood Prince.

So it’s the home front that takes center stage in the multilayered sixth installment of the story of Harry Potter. Here at Hogwarts, Harry will search for the full and complex story of the boy who became Lord Voldemort — and thereby find what may be his only vulnerability.

Here is a list of the chapters:

Chapter 1: The Other Minister
Chapter 2: Spinner’s End
Chapter 3: Will and Won’t
Chapter 4: Horace Slughorn
Chapter 5: An Excess of Phlegm
Chapter 6: Draco’s Detour
Chapter 7: The Slug Club
Chapter 8: Snape Victorious
Chapter 9: The Half-Blood Prince
Chapter 10: The House of Gaunt
Chapter 11: Hermione’s Helping Hand
Chapter 12: Silver and Opals
Chapter 13: The Secret Riddle
Chapter 14: Felix Felicis
Chapter 15: The Unbreakable Vow
Chapter 16: A Very Frosty Christmas
Chapter 17: A Sluggish Memory
Chapter 18: Birthday Surprises
Chapter 19: Elf Tails
Chapter 20: Lord Voldemort’s Request
Chapter 21: The Unknowable Room
Chapter 22: After the Burial
Chapter 23: Horcruxes
Chapter 24: Sectumsempra
Chapter 25: The Seer Overheard
Chapter 26: The Cave
Chapter 27: The Lightning Struck Tower
Chapter 28: Flight of the Prince

Completion of Book 6 Revealed Two Years Ago Today
The completion of the sixth Harry Potter book, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was announced to us exactly two years ago. The Room of Requirement opened on J. K. Rowling's website on December 20, 2005, to reveal a Christmas tree and presents. From there, we had to go through many different steps, answering riddles, and figuring out how to get the gift we all wanted - the news that the sixth book was complete!

Alas, so far, we have not received this gift for the seventh book, though many of us hold out hope.

Jo did, however, give us a recent update, which we are thankful for!lol

If you did not get the chance to be a part of that fun Christmas puzzler two years ago, then you can see how it went on our J. K. Rowling website update link.
