A pretty good read, though definitely not the greatest in the world. The plot and characters were fairly creative, but it was predictable at best. This was the first series I had ever read, and I would recommend it to people just starting to read.

These books are ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!!!!! I hated reading for so long because as a kid i was forced into advanced reading classes and all i did was read. so i stopped reading for years until i found these books and now all i do is read. They helped me find my love for reading again!!!

Yeah, numbah isn't big on Harry Potter. The younger end of the Star Wars fanboys love these turds and I make fun of them for it regularly.

Children's books, or for those who read like children.

The first couple of books were above average for the type, but once Rowling got famous and dispensed with an editor, the later books were overlong and overdull.
