📘 Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J. K. Rowling

The third book of the Harry Potter series follows Harry as he returns to Hogwarts for another turbulent year. A crash of the Knight Bus, the escape of Sirius Black—once branded a mass murderer and loyal follower of Voldemort—signals fresh threats. During a Divination lesson, Professor Trelawney ominously predicts death from Harry's tea leaves. Even more unsettling, Dementors roam the castle grounds, their pensive touch draining hope and life from those they encounter. Amid these dark omens, the school community must confront the lingering dangers of the wizarding world.
