Harry Potter
Harry Potter and his creator, J.K. Rowling -- where does one begin? Harry Potter came to our attention in June 1999, when the second book in the series, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, was published in the US. One of our favorite customers (Don Boose III) casually inquired that he would like any first editions we happen to come across of the series, particularly the first volume and including any UK editions. Sometimes the most innocent-looking customers can be the subtlest in their pursuit of bookish investment. At any rate, we give Don full credit for alerting us to what would become a world-wide phenomenon and the happy cause of many midnight parties in the years to come. Someday we will write up the now-legendary experiences of those book launches and the glorious madness they inspired. We do not carry every crazy merchandised item of the Potter Empire, but we like the core stories and things closely connected to them.

For twelve long years, the dread fortress of Azkaban held an infamous prisoner named Sirius Black. Convicted of killing thirteen people with a single curse, he was said to be the heir apparent to the Dark Lord, Voldemort. Now he has escaped, leaving only two clues as to where he might be headed: Harry Potter's defeat of You-Know-Who was Black's downfall as well. And the Azkaban guards heard Black muttering in his sleep, "He's at Hogwarts... he's at Hogwarts." Harry Potter isn't safe, not even within the walls of his magical school, surrounded by his friends. Because on top of it all, there may well be a traitor in their midst.
