MuggleNet’s global book club, “Alohomora!”, continues its reread of the “Harry Potter” series. We’ve finally gotten back to Hogwarts, but the opening feast holds some surprises. Join hosts Kat, Kristen, and Alison, along with special guest Lauren, as they discuss Chapter 8 of Half-Blood Prince.
In light of MuggleNet’s own convention, MuggleNet Live! 2015: Expo Patronum, here is a list of practical and fun things everyone should do when attending a “Harry Potter” convention.

So, how do we, those of us who want to be a bit more like this boy wizard we so admire, develop the strength of character to become impervious? I think we can find the answer, or at least part of the answer, in the words of our favorite Headmaster…
Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy) is about to star in US show, “Dig,” which begins on March 5. We previously revealed that a real-life mystery game version of the show had been created for members of the public to play. In a new interview, Isaacs has spoken about the show, as well as his talent for accents that he has developed over the years.
