  • Description
    A perennial bestseller in the wizarding world and one of the most popular books in the Hogwarts School library, Quidditch Through the Ages contains all you will ever need to know about the history, the rules - and the breaking of the rules - of the noble sport of Quidditch. Packed with fascinating facts, this definitive guide by the esteemed Quidditch writer Kennilworthy Whisp charts the game's history from its early origins in the medieval mists on Queerditch Marsh, through to the modern-day sport loved by so many wizard and Muggle families around the world. With comprehensive coverage of famous Quidditch teams, the commonest fouls, the development of racing brooms, and much more, this is a must-have sporting bible for all Harry Potter fans, Quidditch lovers and players, whether the weekend amateur or the seasoned Chudley Cannons season-ticket holder. This brand new edition of the most famous sports book in the wizarding world pairs J.K. Rowling's original text, with gorgeous jacket art by Jonny Duddle and line illustrations throughout by Tomislav Tomic. A contribution from the sale of each book will go to Comic Relief.

    Author Info
    • J.K. Rowling is the author of the enduringly popular Harry Potter series, as well as several stand-alone novels and a bestselling crime fiction series. After the idea for Harry Potter came to her on a delayed train journey in 1990, she plotted out and started writing the series of seven books and the first, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, was published in the UK in 1997. The series took another ten years to complete, concluding in 2007 with the publication of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Smash hit movie adaptations followed. The Harry Potter books have now sold over 600 million copies worldwide in 85 languages and been listened to as audiobooks for over one billion hours. To accompany the series, J.K. Rowling wrote three short companion volumes for charity: Quidditch Through the Ages and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, in aid of Comic Relief and Lumos, and The Tales of Beedle the Bard, in aid of Lumos. Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them went on to inspire a new series of films featuring Magizoologist Newt Scamander. Harry's story as a grown-up was continued in a stage play, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, which J.K. Rowling wrote with playwright Jack Thorne and director John Tiffany, and which is now playing in multiple locations around the world. In 2020, she returned to publishing for younger children with the fairy tale The Ickabog, the royalties from which she donated to her charitable trust, Volant, to help charities working to alleviate the social effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Her latest children's novel, The Christmas Pig, was published in 2021. J.K. Rowling has received many awards and honours for her writing, including the OBE and Companion of Honour, the Hans Christian Andersen Award and a Blue Peter Gold Badge. She supports a wide number of humanitarian causes through Volant, and is the founder of the international children's care reform charity Lumos. J.K. Rowling lives in Scotland with her family.

    This book is fab!!! Thanks J.K. Rowling!!!!!

    I bought this book 'cause I'm a great quidditch fan. And guess what, I loved it. The book has lots of information about quidditch. But this book is made for only the ones who have read the Harry Potter series and like quidditch. If u haven't read the HP series, then u won't understand much about this book. And thanks flipkart, for offering such a nice book. But I wish this book could have been bigger.

    Not at all for non-harry potter fans

    I liked this book a lot because I am another Harry Potter bloke but if you are not a quidditch fan, please do not buy it. It has a very high prize and is just made for harry potter fans. It gives a complete history of quidditch- where the Golden Snitch came from, how the Bludgers came into existence, or why the Wigtown Wanderers have pictures of meat cleavers on their robes. So please do not buy it if you are not a HP fan.

    Only for Harry Potter fanatics...

    If you aren't a harry potter buff: DONT BUY THIS!
    For fans: Must Read
    Though a bit overpriced, I dont regret buying this one. History of the game is explained properly. Makes a good read.
    I, being the harry potter fan that I am, I loved this book. And especially for Quidditch fans it is fantastic...
    But, as I mentioned earlier this book won't interest other people...

    For Potterheads through and through

    I am an avid Potterhead and I've been part of this amazing fandom since my childhood. For those of you who haven't read the books and only watched the movies...FIND ANOTHER. BOOK TO BUY, THIS IS NOT FOR YOU. And for those of you, like me, who have read the books with more than a sparkling interest and rather with a deep passion for Potter, you have come to the right place.

    The flying broomstick

    Small, witty and charming this is a great addition to those Harry Potter books lined up on your shelf. It's made to look genuinely like a library book (its got a forward from Dumbeldore even.) Great service by flipkart as per usual.
