Harry and friends are beginning to grow up in this book. There are a few hints about hormones and girl-boy relationships, though far less than would be expected from typical books about 14-year-olds. But it makes it possibly more suitable to an older audience than the earlier books, which were recommended for age 9-11. I would put this more in the 12-15 category myself, but of course it's read and enjoyed by people of all ages, from seven to well over seventy.
I still think the ending is dark. Very dark. It involves a relatively minor character being killed and some rather unpleasant graveyard scenes. When the movie was released, I decided not to go and see it. So although I recommend it generally - preferably after reading the first three - I wouldn't recommended recommend this book for sensitive younger children. {{amazontext|amazon=0747550999}}
