Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling is the fourth installment in the Harry Potter series, following Harry’s fourth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The story revolves around the Triwizard Tournament, a dangerous magical competition between three wizarding schools, and the dark forces rising in the wizarding world.

Plot Summary:

Triwizard Tournament Announcement: Hogwarts hosts the Triwizard Tournament, inviting champions from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang. The Goblet of Fire selects one champion from each school. Unexpectedly, Harry’s name is also chosen, forcing him to compete despite being underage.

Tasks and Challenges: Harry faces three perilous tasks: retrieving a golden egg from a dragon, rescuing friends from the depths of a lake, and navigating a magical maze filled with obstacles.

Dark Forces and Betrayal: Throughout the tournament, Harry encounters threats and mysterious events. The Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Mad-Eye Moody, helps him prepare but is later revealed to be Barty Crouch Jr., a Death Eater in disguise who manipulated the tournament to bring Harry to Voldemort.

Voldemort’s Return: In the final task, Harry and fellow champion Cedric Diggory touch the Triwizard Cup, which is a Portkey transporting them to a graveyard. There, Voldemort is reborn using Harry’s blood. Cedric is killed, and Harry narrowly escapes after a duel with Voldemort.

Aftermath: Harry returns to Hogwarts with Cedric’s body and warns of Voldemort’s return, but the wizarding community is slow to believe him. The book ends with the ominous realization that the fight against Voldemort is far from over.
