Harry Potter the famous fictional wizard

 


Harry Potter is a fictional character created by British author J.K. Rowling. He is the main protagonist in the "Harry Potter" series of fantasy novels, which consists of seven books:

  • "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" (published as "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" in the United States)
  • "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets"
  • "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban"
  • "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire"
  • "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix"
  • "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince"
  • "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows"

The series follows Harry's journey as a young wizard who learns about his magical heritage on his eleventh birthday when he receives a letter of acceptance to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Harry discovers that he is famous in the wizarding world for surviving an attack by the dark wizard Lord Voldemort when he was just a baby. Voldemort's curse left a lightning bolt-shaped scar on Harry's forehead and killed his parents.

Throughout the series, Harry and his friends, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, face various challenges and uncover the mystery behind Voldemort's return to power. Harry is known for his courage, loyalty, and determination to fight against dark forces, despite the numerous obstacles he encounters. The books explore themes of friendship, bravery, the battle between good and evil, and the importance of choices.

The popularity of the "Harry Potter" series led to the creation of a successful film franchise, stage plays, merchandise, and an expansive Wizarding World franchise that includes spin-off books and movies like the "Fantastic Beasts" series.
