Bare in mind I don't actually have the boxed set, but I've read all of the Harry Potter series.First off, I want to say that J.K. Rowling did a fantastic job in writing an entertaining series. Second, I would like to point out, that while the books are entertaining, they contain quite a lot of things I don't agree with. As a Christian, I was inclined first to just ignore the objectionable content, but I found my conscience convicted. For starters, no one can deny this book is about magic- more importantly "good" magic vs. "bad" magic. I realize that most of the stuff in HP cannot be replicated (i.e. the spells are not real). But, one cannot deny the occasional occult reference (which the author must have researched and added). The absense of God and the idea given to younger readers that if you say the right things and do the right motions, you can have great power beyond your wildest dreams is frankly disturbing. I'm not saying we should all go burn Harry Potter books, but more that we should not allow young children to read them. Children imitate what they see. If they see characters who use "good" magic to help people, they are inclined to be more interested in magic in general. Even I got sucked up in the thrill of the stories. I found I was paying more attention to Harry Potter than I was to my relationship with Jesus Christ, so I've decided not to read them anymore. I also feel that as a Christian I could be setting a bad example for young people saying that "fake magic" is good and fine to read about,etc. but real magic is bad. God warns us to stay away from all forms of magic, divination, and the like. He also calls us not to be immitators of evil. But anyways, that's probably the longest review I've ever written.. haha but I needed to get that off my chest. Keep in mind I'm not judging those who enjoy and like to read Harry Potter. Everyone should come to their own decision about whether or not to read these books based on their convictions.

I absolutely love Harry Potter! I had every book the day they came out! This is a collection I will pass on! I do wish there could be one more book but it's not really necessary to have one. She's a great author. She planned her books well. She said there were 7 years@ Hogwarts and stuck with that despite the high demand for another! If she made another people would only want another then another. Harry Potter is a character I've become addicted to. Maybe a few years from now she'll creat something different and people won't compare the new to Harry!

Rowling did an incredible job creating a world to escape into, with great attention to detail, adding nuances that fans cherish. The best thing about the books is the characters:their pasts and presents and futures.
