Potioncat:

GoF has Chapter 13: Mad-Eye Moody. He's the new DADA teacher, 
although he is mentioned earlier in the book, and he makes his grand 
entrance in 12, it's 13 that's named for him.

I've no idea if FF is the DADA teacher, but following this example, 
chapter 14 wouldn't be too late for it to be.
