In this exquisitely detailed book, a monk gives his own Christian
take on the Harry Potter series. He traces the intricate pattern of
J K Rowling's surprisingly mystical tale with wit and insight. He
brings out the wisdom of her understanding of good and evil and
links her magical world, shown to be a rich mine of spiritual and
Christian teaching, to spiritual reality. The author identifies the
many symbols and illuminating connections both to the Christian
tradition and among the books themselves and shows how they are
ultimately rooted in the death and resurrection of Christ. Never
didactic and always engaging, the author expounds on, among other
things, the values that Harry learns at Hogwarts, which set the
vulnerability of love and sacrifice against the ignorant and
self-defeating power seeking of Voldemort. Packed with literary
insight, richly referenced, and argued with fine literary acumen,
this book will be a delight and an enlightenment for all lovers of
the Harry Potter series. I
