Quidditch anyone?
I'm a major Harry Potter fan. I was introduced to JK Rowling's books by my nephew years ago. We read all the books and saw all the movies and were sad when the books were over. So anytime I find anything related to the Harry Potter saga, I'm there! This book was very interesting in explaining the beginnings of and history of Quidditch. It's an easy read, but also brought back a lot of good memories!

A Concise Read and Solid Library Addition
Potterfan and Proud Gryffindor/Thunderbird here so I had to add this book to my library. Do you have to too? Will you be missing out on crucial information if you're a first time reader of Harry Potter (Welcome!)? No; you get a vivid enough picture of the game in the books to make it through just fine. It's just fun extra content to enhance the experience. My tip would be check it out at the library and you'll get a feel if you're the type of person who buys the book or pulls a Ron Weasley and spends that money on dungbombs instead.Content: I like the history of the game; the reactionary newspaper articles that come every time there is a major change in the rules always include a little funny line about someone crying that the game isn't going to be the same again. You get the rules of the game, descriptions of the brooms and other equipment, different plays, one paragraph descriptions of the various teams and leagues. I always like a bit of backstory into the Wizarding World, but the book is short enough not to be tedious. I'm sure that people who LARP Quidditch will wear their texts out because you really do get solid Wiki description of how to play the game.Edition: I got the 2001 edition pictured here. The 2001 Comic Relief editions of the Hogwarts Library books have proved to be my favorite (along with Tales of Beedle and especially with Fantastic Beasts because the commentary goes missing in the 2012 box set). I know there is a 2012 edition of this book that is in the Hogwarts Library box set, but I've heard (have not witnessed) that the content is relatively the same. I think the deal with the hardcover 2012 edition is the cover looks different, more like a textbook and uniform with the other books, but I like my 2001 mismatched editions just fine.Happy Reading!

Fun and easy read
It’s definitely a fun pastime to sink into a book that is normally kept as a secret from us Muggles.

Boring statistics--A cute book, nonetheless
This is written in the style of a sports book. Ms. Rowling has perhaps the greatest imagination on planet Earth today. The purchase goes to a good cause. I did find the book an interesting read.

Quidditch history
I've been a fan of the Wizarding world for over 20 years. I greatly enjoyed learning about the origins of Quidditch, the history of the sport, and the dedication of it's fans.

Ginny Weasley is a great sport's announcer.
I love audio books. I love Harry Potter. I read the original shorter version. The 2014 game addition is a real treat and the narration was wonderful. Don't you just love to hate Rita Skeeter?

At the bottom of the short story ebook pile about the wizarding world
I loved the other short story ebooks published by J.K. Rowling, but Quidditch Through the Ages disappoints. It could be because it's supposed to be an actual book for wizards by 'Kennilworthy Whisp,' but it dragged on and on about history, teams, plays, etc. etc. I thought, "Okay, you can stop making stuff up now." I would recommend the others over this book: 'Short Stories from Hogwarts of Power, Politics and Pesky Poltergeists,' 'Hogwarts: An Incomplete and Unreliable Guide,' and 'Short Stories from Hogwarts of Heroism, Hardship and Dangerous Hobbies.' They contain much more interesting backstories to the Harry Potter series and I find the etymology behind the words, spells and names very interesting.

I loved it
Quidditch Through the Ages is a recommended reading for Harry Potter lovers, because, without the prior knowledge of the HP universe it would make no sense; a book that you read in a few hours that delights the imagination of those who have fallen in love Hogwarts, its rods, its uses, and of course his sport. That's why I loved it!
