The Riddle Years
It is the early years of the 1940’s and the muggle world lies torn apart by conflict. War rages across Europe and Asia and in Britain the Luftwaffe rain terror down on the streets of London in a brutal campaign of nightly bombing raids. Many people have fled their homes in the south of England and terror holds sway over the whole country. The Ministry of Magic would prefer to remain distant from such affairs, but London is their home too.
But as the darkest hours of human history unfold around them, the students in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry are sheltered from the turmoil, safe in the knowledge that the war is not theirs and cannot touch them. And yet, deep in the bosom of the castle, the seeds of another war are germinating; a war that will eventually rip the wizarding world apart and set friend against friend, father against son, brother against sister. For within the very walls that keep them safe from the horrors of the muggle conflict, shrouded in mystery and myth, the Chamber of Secrets calls out to one of the students … and its call is irresistible.
Welcome to Hogwarts. Join students Rubeus Hagrid and Minerva McGonagall and professors Albus Dumbledore and Horace Slughorn in the adventure that gives birth to a legend. Take your rightful place in the school where Tom Marvolo Riddle nurtures his magical skills, discovers the secrets of Dark Magic and sets out on the path that will eventually lead him to become the most feared dark wizard of all time, Lord Voldemort.
The Chamber of Secrets is calling Tom, and Tom is calling you … how will you answer?
