‘There will be three tasks, spaced throughout the school year, and they will test the champions in many different ways ... their magical prowess - their daring - their powers of deduction - and, of course, their ability to cope with danger.'

The Triwizard Tournament is to be held at Hogwarts. Only wizards who are over seventeen are allowed to enter - but that doesn't stop Harry dreaming that he will win the competition. Then at Hallowe'en, when the Goblet of Fire makes its selection, Harry is amazed to find his name is one of those that the magical cup picks out. He will face death-defying tasks, dragons and Dark wizards, but with the help of his best friends, Ron and Hermione, he might just make it through - alive!

Having become classics of our time, the Harry Potter stories never fail to bring comfort and escapism. With their message of hope, belonging and the enduring power of truth and love, the story of the Boy Who Lived continues to delight generations of new listeners.

Part of the best things in life

Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2018

Verified Purchase

I think this is my third reading of the Harry Potter series. The first time is a precious memory to me. Our four children would all climb into our king size bed before bedtime and we would read one or two chapters each evening. We homeschooled so, as each child's reading progressed, they read a part too. Their mom died. They're in late 20s now. Five grandkids. Those will be ready to read to before we know it. But life is not always neatly packaged. I married a widow and moved us all. Today they are off to their own lives. My four and I are scattered across four states and even overseas. So, I'm reading to myself now. I can't make a stronger recommendation than to say that I immediately purchased "The Order Of The Phoenix" after finishing this one. I also have the set in hardbound on the bookshelf beside me. But Kindle is just too convenient. *smile*

This is the 4th book (out of 7) in the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling.

Some people think that they've come up with a good reason for not reading Harry Potter books. I do not find their reason compelling. You're missing out on sentences like "Dudley had reached roughly the size and weight of a young killer whale." Your loss.

There may be spoilers below. You've been warned. Continue reading at your own literary peril.

This book has everything.

We're introduced to portkeys which are used to great effect at least twice.

We also meet Viktor Krum, a champion Quidditch seeker.

We encounter Veela (apparently the Kardashians are half Veela).

We discover that Leprechaun gold is a form of wizarding world Bitcoin.

House elves are to Harry Potter what droids are to Star Wars (Rebels).

We discover why Rita Skeeter bugs the heck out of us and why she's always "buzzing around".

Professor Snape is still not the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher (nor is Alastor "Mad Eye" Moody (who somehow has encountered the Borg in Harry Potter's world)). A friend told me he knew a man with a wooden leg named Moody, so I asked him, "What was the name of his other leg?"

We get to see the first Triwizard Tournament in 700 years.

We find out who put Harry's name in the Goblet of Fire.

Hagrid has a patchwork quilt on his gigantic bed.

Don't mess with mother dragons. If you get a golden egg, look and listen to it closely.

Sneakoscopes aren't everything they're cracked up to be.

Sometimes Dobby's eyes leak with happiness.

Giants have a bad rap in Harry Potter's world. This include taking half measures with people like Hagrid and Madame Olympe Maxime.

Goblins have a gambling syndicate. They'll break your legs if you don't pay your debts.

Bartemius and Barty are two different people (even though they're related (father and son)).

Dumbledore speaks Mermish.

Harry is put on a high moral fiber diet.

The third task in the Tournament was amazing.

Voldamort was a really ugly baby. Even his mother couldn't look at him. His appearance was a riddle.

Wormtail was not very handy.

Can you apparate if you're a gorilla, orangutan, or chimpanzee?

Voldamort has problems letting go of petty offenses. "I do not forgive. I do not forget. Thirteen long years ... I want thirteen years' repayment."

Voldamort is back in a physical body. The next three books will respond to this. "I remember only forcing myself, sleeplessly, endlessly, second by second, to exist." A lesser villain would've just given in.

Bertha Jorkins was a veritable "mine of information". A mine is a terrible thing to waste.

Voldamort's choices always come back to haunt him. Including the fact that both his and Harry's wands have a phoenix feather core from Fawkes.

Sirius is a pretty good godfather (unlike the goblins). Seriously.

"What's comin' will come, an' we'll meet it when it does." Hagrid (quoting Dumbledore). "All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us." Gandalf (quoting himself).

Harry becomes a VC and funds a joke shop.

There were 3 Quidditch seekers as main characters in this novel.

This was a complex story line executed pretty well.

This is where the series becomes darker and more "adult"

Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2022

Verified Purchase

The Goblet of Fire is the fourth book in the Harry Potter franchise. It is, by far, the longest up to that point, and overall, the second-longest of the series. So, for those who have only seen the movies, the novel has a lot more content and has a much different pace than the movie adaptation. The main storyline that was removed to make the movie was Hermonie's quest to liberate the house elves that work in the Hogwart's kitchen. Also, there is a lot more backstory about the death eaters and about the events revealed at the end of the movie. Also, as I said, the pacing of the events in the book is a lot different than the movie. In the book, there is a lot more time devoted to the quidditch world cup, and a pretty hilarious beginning in which the Weasley's come to Privet Drive to fetch Harry. The selection of the champions does not start until about 1/3 of the way into the book, and the tournament takes place with months between the tasks. There are also some things from the book (like how Harry gets the Gillyweed) that are changed from the novels, and things that were dropped altogether from earlier films (like Hermonie's teeth) are resolved in this book. And, there are a lot more to Rita Seeker and Hagrid's story arcs in the book than were shown in the movie.

The book is a lot darker than the previous three novels. Of course, Rowling wrote them with the intention that the kids reading the books would age with the characters, so this one is more suitable for those in the 13-14-year-old range than those who are 10 years old. While the book is long, about 750 pages, it still reads fairly quickly like the other novels do. If you have good reading comprehension skills and read fairly quickly, you should be able to get through it in a week, give or take, depending on how much time you have to devote to reading. If you can devote a couple of days to it without stopping, you can probably finish it in that amount of time.

Overall, the book is very good, and while technically a kid's book, can be enjoyed by kids, teens, and adults. Even those who were adults when the books first were published. The themes about good vs. evil, friendship, loyalty, and heroism are timeless and certainly have wide appeal. If you have only seen the movie and love it, you will probably love the book too, and get a much fuller version of the story. It is definitely worth the read.

If you order this book (along with any book) keep in mind that it most likely will get beat up in the shopping process! I personally do not mind the bumps and bruises, but I know to many that it is not okay as they want these books to be in great condition. If you are planning on buying this book, or any book, for the sake of collecting them....I’d recommend going to a bookstore and purchasing it there. There’s a higher chance it won’t come damaged :) if you don’t mind bumps and bruises, ordering this book is perfect! I’ve been ordering the next book in the series when I’m about halfway through the previous book, that way the next book in the series arrives the day after I finish the previous book.

Just Magical!

These audio books are amazing! My sister has MS and struggles to read books due to the MS, but she LOVES Harry Potter. When I told her that the films do not have the same details that the books have she was very disappointed that she was missing out and so she started the first book but only managed a few pages over a week. She felt like the extra details were hidden secrets never to be revealed to her . . . Until now! The unabridged cds read by Stephen Fry are AMAZING! All the extra bits from the books are now reachable for my sister, who listens to them when driving. Only problem is that now she keeps highlighting areas where the film is not as thorough as the books! Thank you #StephenFry for doing such a wonderful job bringing all the different characters to life for her.

I never get sick of reading it again and again

I can never find a boring or uninteresting moment in The Goblet of Fire and I never get sick of reading it again and again as it's so easy to lose myself in Harry Potter with the astounding events and distinctive characters.Anyone who hasn't read up to The Goblet of Fire should definitely re-think that decision as this is the book where it all changes and it's then impossible to not continue reading the rest of the books.

It's getting darker

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 13, 2019

Verified Purchase

This fourth of the novel is among my most favourite in the series. There are Death Eaters, Harry faces a returned Voldemort! Professor Moody is not Moody and Rita Skeeter reveals her true nature.. This book sees Harry’s transformation into adulthood in a more serious storyline that perfectly mixes humorous with drama – the book has great character development but a key player will die. The book takes off begins with a tournament when Ron invites Harry to the Quiditch World Cup Final. Ron’s father, through his Ministry of Magic connections has managed to secure seats, but some uninvited guests spoil the event. Later on Hogwarts sees another tournament on its premises; the historic Triwizard Tournament and Harry, despite his age, unexpectedly becomes an contestant.

At the same time he-who-must-not –be-named is slowly growing stronger now that his reliable servant, Wormtail, has returned to him the tone of the books gets progressively darker.

So it’s a great book again, a worthy successor to the magnificent Prisoner of Azkaban, that I very much enjoyed.
We bought the more durable hard bound copy, so the that book can be passed on from one child to the other as they start to develop an interest. However given the Potter-enthusiasm our oldest displays I wonder she will ever part with it.

Good but why the spoilers on front or back covers in these editions of the books??

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 13, 2020

Verified Purchase

Everything good but I have a complaint with the edition of books: why the spoilers either on the cover or the back? The Chamber of Secrets has a picture of the freaking basilisk at the front cover which takes out all of the mistery in the book. And this one at the back talks about the Triwizard Tournament and gives all details while this is secret towards the first part of the book. Obviously not my first read but if it was and I knew nothing I'd be a bit annoyed about that
