The witches and wizards at Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry are gripped by fear - fear of the Dark Lord, fear of political unrest, fear of passing their O.W.L.s! After a long summer, James and Sirius have taken it upon themselves to bring comedic relief to the castle -- and it's up to Remus (and his new shiny Prefect's badge!) to keep them in line (yeah right)... But it's not all fun and games about the castle as the Marauders discover there's something mad about the new Minister for Magic -- and it's up to them and the rest of the Order of the Phoenix to set things right!

The second half of the Marauders' Fifth Year has already started with a ton of excitement - but the year is not finished yet. As the Ministry continues the hunt for Harold Minchum and the cave in which he is suspected to be concealed, the Marauders grapple with coming to terms with their own losses and changes... *** This is a continuation of The Marauders series, be sure to read the others before reading this one!
