As Harry shouted, "Expelliarmus!" Voldemort cried, "Avada Kedavra!"Ī jet of green light issued from Voldemort's wand just as a jet of red light blasted from Harry's - they met in midair - and suddenly Harry's wand was vibrating as though an electric charge were surging through it his hand seized up around it he couldn't have released it if he'd wanted to - and a narrow beam of light connected the two wands, neither red nor green, but bright, deep gold. Voldemort has Cedric killed by one of his Death Eaters, and ends up challenging Harry to a duel. It turns out to be a portkey, which teleports them to a graveyard where Lord Voldemort and his band of Death Eaters lie in wait. Both Harry Potter and Cedric Diggory, another Hogwarts student, reach the Cup at the same time, and decide to touch it together, because Harry Potter is an insufferable moralist. The plot culminates with the last challenge of the Triwizard Tournament, in which the champions from each school must navigate a large maze full of magical monsters, puzzles, and obstacles to reach the Triwizard Cup. Rowling could come up with for the wizard equivalent of Nazis. The Goblet of Fire introduced a lot of new things to the Harry Potter universe-the Triwizard Tournament, the Beauxbatons and Durmstrang schools, the first appearance of the Death Eaters, which is the scariest name J.K. Let's start with the book (spoilers ahead!). Rowling play Mario Party 2 while writing Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and incorporate it in the book? It raises important questions about the sources of its plot and themes-themes that still resonate with adolescents and young adults today.

Goblet of Fire was, in retrospect, a major turning point for the series-the book that took the series to new level of darkness and maturity. The first Harry Potter film was to start filming in a few months. Rowling herself called it "a central book" and "the heart of the series." Rumors were flying that a major character would be killed off. It was to be the first Harry Potter book released at the same time in both the United States and the United Kingdom. Rowling was about to release the fourth Harry Potter book, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. In July of 2000, the world was at the height of Harry Potter mania.
