Reading from a series is a peculiar thing. The things we frequently consume produced in sets (movies, books, art, etc.) are judged and often appreciated much differently than their independent-work counterparts -- even when they belong to the same person. In a series, bits and pieces and characters and storylines are judged against one another; each individual part is viewed as an integral piece of a larger whole - a stair in the case, and there is undoubtedly at least one moment along the line that you think to yourself, "I don't think it will get any better than this one"... until it does. Goblet of Fire was that moment for me. I am sure as I press forward to complete reading the series I will find myself saying it again but as of now, this has been the pinnacle. Reviewing from the standpoint of a 24 years old business professional, I was downright enamored with the 4th installment by Rowling. This being my first venture through the ever-popular series (I know.. I basically lived under a rock), I found the 3 previous stories, though deep in their underlying message, to be childish on the surface. In my humble opinion, Goblet really elevated those themes and the plot twists and turns TOTALLY HAD ME! When a children's book fools an adult, it's a well-written piece of lit. Engaging and free-flowing, Goblet gets my full marks as an entertaining piece of work as well as my so-far-favorite-of-the-series approval. FIVE STARS!!!!
