瑪姬姑姑又要來了!這個名字一出現在德思禮家,就代表著哈利為期一週的惡夢。小時候玩大風吹,她會用手杖猛敲哈利的腳,免得他贏過達力,有一年他不小心踩到了瑪姬養的牛頭犬,只能在樹上躲到三更半夜。瑪姬姑姑跟德思禮家所有人一樣,都以貶低他為樂,直到她侮辱了哈利的父母,被他用魔法變成大氣球……

在麻瓜的世界裡擅自使用魔法是重罪,哈利擔心自己一時的衝動,會害他永遠回不了霍格華茲,但對整個魔法世界來說,有遠比瑪姬姑姑更嚴重的事。天狼星.布萊克逃離了阿茲卡班監獄!十三年前,他只下了一個詛咒,就殺死了十三個人,如今這個佛地魔追隨者的頭號目標,正是——哈利波特!

好不容易回到霍格華茲,升上三年級的哈利卻發現,恐怖的「催狂魔」已經悄悄進駐校園。這是魔法部為了追捕天狼星所放出的邪惡生物,牠們喜愛腐敗和絕望,會將人們心中的一切的美好全都吸食殆盡。牠們的到來,讓原本就已危機四伏的校園生活,變得更加令人毛骨悚然。而就在此時,占卜學的崔老妮教授,竟在哈利的茶杯中看到了「死亡」的預兆……

When the Knight Bus crashes through the darkness and screeches to a halt in front of him, its the start of another far from ordinary year at Hogwarts for Harry Potter. Sirius Black, escaped mass-murderer and follower of Lord Voldemort, is on the run - and they say he is coming after Harry. In his first ever Divination class, Professor Trelawney sees an omen of death in Harrys tea leaves . But perhaps most terrifying of all are the Dementors patrolling the school grounds, with their soul-sucking kiss.
