The book are excellent nd the quality amazing it just u can't see when the books are gonna come so that was difficult nd they had the wrong waiting period so my books took longer then I thought they would but all in all I'm happy
So happy with this book. Lovely behind the scenes information and photos about the horcruxes and Deathy Hallows development and designs. Can't wait to get the other books in the series.
Wish I knew about this book sooner. Many many questions were answered. Dr. Hill explains so much technical info in layman terms without overwhelming the reader with doomsday notions. Her book is balanced and allows the reader to come to their own informed decisions and conclusions
