I read the first one last Christmas three times (feeling like an
idiot, of course). Harry is a cool kid--very 11-year-old, in spite of
the sorcerer stuff, some of the details are really neat, like the
every flavor jelly beans (he really means EVERY flavor), his truly
icky non-sorcerer relatives. And I'm a sucker for those "plucky young
hero defends the world against the forces of evil" books anyhow (the
brain obviously still thinks it's ten, although the rest of the body
is all too clear that that is not the case).
Haven't read either of the other two--only in hard back with waiting
lists a mile long. Would gladly do so if one drifted by.
