About the book
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is the fifth novel in J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter series, following Harry's fifth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. After the return of Lord Voldemort, the Ministry of Magic refuses to believe the danger and installs Dolores Umbridge as a repressive new teacher, while Harry and his friends secretly form Dumbledore's Army to learn defensive magic. It is the longest book in the series.
The novel deepens the series' darker themes, exploring institutional denial and propaganda, the isolation of an untrusted hero, grief, and the burdens placed on the young. Harry contends with anger and alienation even as he discovers loyalty and courage in his friends, and the Order of the Phoenix works to resist Voldemort's rising power.
Published in 2003 amid record anticipation, the book was among the best-selling and most talked-about releases of its era and cemented the Harry Potter series as a global cultural phenomenon. It was adapted into a major feature film in 2007.
