Product Description:
HP Sleuths are clever fans who know how to ferret out the clues J.K. Rowling has hidden in her septology, fans who revel in the quest of divining what is yet to come from those concealed mysteries.
HP Sleuths aren't quite ready to be told answers to the mysteries in J.K.R.'s fifth installment of the Harry Potter series -- but they do want to know if they are on the right track. This unusual book provides the hints and clues readers need to unravel these complex mysteries themselves. New Clues to Harry Potter: Book 5 is a 'hints only' guide and is in a different format from our Ultimate Unofficial Guide. It includes lots of FAQs to explain some of the more complex events that occurred in Book 5. It also points HP Sleuths to the right sections so you know precisely where to look for all the mega clues we have spotted, and has a lot of big hints and tools that you need so you can start solving the mysteries. The HP Hintoscope, WWP Sleuthoscope and Rememberit Quill will all help too! But we won't be openly exposing all of the answers in this 'New Clues' Guide. Includes:
• Special tools to investigate the mysteries in Book 5 • New Guide of Clues to Harry Potter • Cool reference materials to keep key clues fresh
HP Sleuths who are ready for the answers can find them in the new Ultimate Unofficial Guide to the Mysteries of Harry Potter (Analysis of Book 5), the full analysis released by Wizarding World Press before the release of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, in July of 2005. Get ready to pull out your memories and take a look—you’ll be amazed at what there is to see!

What makes this book sparkle is its flavorful tackle of Book #5. I originally bought this back in the day, when it was very first published, and was pleasantly surprised; even now I still examine it every now and then for future ideas that might occur in the series' final installment. This book was written for those kinds of people, the crazy fans that want to over-analyze every little detail. It's great fun, folks.
The book is written in a close, personal, and gritty manner with the foremost objective of tackling information and secrets, and it does so most impressively. Someone was thinking when this was written, and it shows! Theories are discussed thoroughly, and impressively backed up with book/interview information.
While a lot of ideas presented should probably be taken with a grain of salt, it is this over-extention that makes this piece so awesome. This is a great little source for those just beginning the series, or those that just want to look back to re-analyze things. Heck, it's just fun.

This one is a little harder to follow, but it is definately making me gop back and re-read book 5, there is so much that I missed the very first 6 or so times!!

I might have enjoyed this book. As it was, the hints were too vague and arch (as in mischievous, saucy) for the non- philologists. I have gotten clearer explanations of esoteric references in HP out of reading the boards on the various web sites. Speaking of the boards, here's a link that will take you to a discusion of Galadriel and WWF on The Sugar Quill.
Galadiel Waters and her team have spent a great deal of time on this quest, but IMHO, the WWF books are for the Hermoines of the world who solve every problem by going to the library.

really, if I had the time to research all the references and books the author mentions, I would write my own guide!! Not worth the effort unless you aspire to PhD in Philology...

A thoroughly enjoyable HP sleuth effort. I read the entire extant HP corpus 5 times last year (I AM NOT obsessed!) But this little gem made want to read OotP again. I missed many clues, apparently! This one goes into my permanent library for re-reading after the new HP 6 is read! WWP SCORES A PERFECT 10!
