Clark In the second fantasy book, author J.K.
Rowling once again hit the boundary. Harry Potter
and The Chamber of Secrets is another
outstanding creation of her. The writing of this
book is even better than the previous one. There
is no doubt about its popularity. The way
Rowling opened another world in front of us is
really praiseworthy. In this book, Harry starts
his second year in the Hogwarts School of
Witchcraft and Wizardry with his best friends
Ron and Hermione and his enemy Dracco. When the
house-elf Dobby warns him about the plot in the
school Harry ignores him. To stop Harry from
going back to school Dobby takes several
attempts but he has failed. Meanwhile mysterious
series of messages have been written on the
school corridor wall saying, the chamber of the
secret has been reopened and the hair of
Slytherin will kill all the muggle-born. After
the threat, several attacks have been going on to
the muggle-born. But they have not been killed.
They have been petrified. Harry, Ron, and
Hermione learn about the chamber of secrets from
their ghost professor and they find that the
chamber is home to a monster. They want to know
more about the chamber. So they make polyjuice
potion to trick Dracco for information. In the
meantime, Harry hears voices inside the school
wall in the office of professor Lockhart. He
finds the power of talking with a snake which is
the power of Slytherin. For this reason, some
students think of him as the heir of
Slytherin. Suddenly, Harry finds a diary and
identifies that Hagrid opened the chamber of
secret before and expelled from the school. And
for the current attacks, he has been sent to
Azkaban. When Hermione has been petrified, Harry
and Ron find nothing to work with. But they find
a note on Hermiones hand which leads them to the
chamber of secrets and its monster- Basilisk
snake. At last, Harry finds that Ginny, Rons
younger sister, does all of
3
these by the influence of Lord Voldemort through
the diary. Harry kills the snake and stops
Voldemort once again. Once again J.K. Rowling
welcomes us in the magical world of Harry Potter
by her wonderful ideas. This book has many more
twists than the first one. Though Rowling faced
difficulty to finish the book, it was the
best-selling book once again. From the 90s kids
to the present kids, everybody loves this book
for its mesmerizing story, easy writing, and
understandable plot. It will remain in the
all-time favorite book list of Harry Potter
loving people. The second book of this series is
equally good as the first one. In here, Voldemort
found a new way to return but failed again.
Harry had identified some of his gifted ability
which is similar to Slytherin. All those attacks
in the school created fear among the students and
staff. But the ending is good. Harry, Ron, and
Hermione stopped all those evil plots against
them.
