Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling

The wizarding world is divided as Lord Voldemort returns and Harry prepares for the war to come.

In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Harry begins his fifth year at Hogwarts while the Ministry of Magic refuses to accept that Voldemort has returned. The school is placed under the control of Ministry official Dolores Umbridge, whose restrictions prevent students from learning the practical defensive magic they need.

With Ron and Hermione’s help, Harry secretly forms Dumbledore’s Army, teaching fellow students how to defend themselves. At the same time, Harry experiences increasingly disturbing visions and discovers that his connection to Voldemort may be more significant—and more dangerous—than he realised.

As tensions rise within Hogwarts and the wider wizarding world, Harry and his friends are drawn into a conflict that will have serious consequences for them all.
