Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Book 5)Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Book 5) by J.K. Rowling
Buy new: £11.01 / Used from: £0.01
Finally the most recent is certainly worth reading. I feel it is more aimed at adults and also deals with some really important and difficult issues in amongst the addictive storyline.
