line:
Harry has been burdened with a dark, dangerous and seemingly
impossible task: that of locating and destroying Voldemort's
remaining Horcruxes. Never has Harry felt so alone, or faced
a future so full of shadows. But Harry must somehow find within
himself the strength to complete the task he has been given.
He must leave the warmth, safety , and companionship of The
Burrow and follow without fear or hesitation the inexorable
path laid out for him!
In this final, seventh installment of the Harry Potter
series, J.K. Rowling unveils in spectactular fashion the answers
to the many questions that have been so eagerly awaited. The
spellbinding, richly woven narrative, which plunges, twists
and turns at a breathtaking pace, confirms the author as a
mistress of storytelling, whose books will be read, reread
and read again.
This portion is from the UK Children's version:
Harry is waiting in Privet Drive. The Order of the Phoenix
is coming to escort him safely away without Voldemort and
his supporters knowing if they can. But what will Harry do
then? How can he fulfil the momentous and seemingly impossible
task that Professor Dumbledore has left him with?
