Welll.... yes of course. A little visit in wikipedia would've told you that.

Crikey Mikey! I've always suspected that!

That's so cool to finally have it confirmed.

Does anybody know the name of that "huge blonde Death Eater"? IIRC his name is not mentioned...

¿Lucius Malfoy? He's in Azkaban, and Harry and the others know Lucius but they were referring to him as "that huge Death Eater", like they wouldn't know is name.

Besides, I doubt that Voldemort would have send him to that mission after his failure in the Ministry...

yeah, but a lot of people don't STAY in that prison, they escape. Anyway that's just the rumor going around.

Harry would have recognized him. Lucius also wasn't really "huge", according to descriptions we've had of him thus far.

...I didn't think Harry was the one who coined the description in the first place.

Lucious was never "large" anyway. He was built a lot like Draco, who has a small build. At least that's what I always thought.

Anywho, about this locket buisiness: Anyone remember what the locket they found at the Order looked like? I'm being lazy (as I so often am) and refuse to look it up when I know that the information is probably lying around in someon's head at this very moment. Well, it'd be a different moment when you guys read this...but I digress. My point is, do you guys think that it's the same one? I'd like to think so...especially since I like the idea of Regelus(sp?) being a "good" Black.

Finally, read the book yesterday (took all day, but it seemed shorter than her last, eh). Seemed like the story was "trying to hard" in a few places, but certainly enjoyed the story. Gripe: lot of halaboo was made about D's burnt/black hand then the story of it was just generalized with his destroying of the ring....maybe JKR means to extrapulate further in the next, but what a lame piece of setup IMHO.

Enjoyed the book, look forward to the next.

I suspect Snape is not the evil fella that Harry thinks him (I admit liking, Snape, so I'm completely biased). Cute that Harry has begun to see Draco's side of things, Harry is growing....cool.

There are many people who believe that Snape is good. Probably more people think he's good than think he's bad. Personally, I'm still on the fence. But maybe we're making our own twist here that he's good, only to have J.K. Rowling pull the rug out from under us and have him really be evil. Just a thought...

Check out the discussions at barnesandnobleuniversity.com in the classes with John Granger as one of the professors. Get jiggy with Snape, the good guy so undercover Harry thinks he's bad!

i just got the half-blood prince a couple days ago but i think i noticed a big mistake. throughout the series rowling always says that the wizards never wear muggle clothes, they only wear robes and stuff, but ive seen 2 spots in the book where it refers to harry wearing pants at hogwarts. i thought it was weird, did anyone else notice this?

And when using Muggle transportation or going into areas where they might be seen, dressing in Muggle clothes was often preferred .
