How many pages are in harry potter and the prisoner of azkaban

Harry Potter's third year at Hogwarts is anything but quiet in Prisoner of Azkaban. He accidentally causes his Aunt Marge to inflate when she visits the Dursleys during the summer and is picked up by the Knight Bus when he leaves the house in anger. He reads about Sirius Black, who has escaped from prison, and later learns that Black may be after Harry.

On the way to Hogwarts, Harry, Ron, and Hermione are introduced to Remus Lupin when the new professor saves Harry from Dementors with a piece of chocolate. Later on, he is helped into Hogsmeade by the Marauder's map, given to Harry Fred and George Weasley. The map is written by Moony, Prongs, Wormtail, and Padfoot and leads him through a secret passageway into the village.

Harry will later learn that this quartet is no other than his father, James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and the traitorous Peter Pettigrew. For the rest of the year, Harry Potter unravels the mystery of Sirius Black and his parents' deaths.

“Harry Potter is a wizard. He is in his third year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It's always a relief after summer with the Dursleys, however, Harry doesn't realize that this year will be just as eventful as the last two! The atmosphere at Hogwarts is tense. There's an escaped mass murderer on the loose, even the Muggles have been warned. The sinister prison guards of Azkaban have been called in to guard the school and Harry, Ron and Hermione rapidly discover why all witches and wizards live in fear of being sent to Azkaban. Lessons, however, must go on and there are lots of new subjects in the third year - Care of Magical Creatures and Divination among others. Plus the delights of Hogsmeade, the only village in the UK entirely populated by the magical community” (from Bloomsbury’s website).

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, written by world-renowned author JK Rowling, was first published as a hardcover on July 8th, 1999 by Bloomsbury Publishing. The third in the Harry Potter series, this novel follows Harry Potter and his friends on yet another thrilling adventure through the world of magic. The acclaimed novel has achieved many awards, was adapted into film in 2004, and has even been adapted into a video game.
