Now Phil:
A better match for the pattern in PS/S
would be the large black and silver screaming volume that Harry opened at
Christmas in the Restricted Section in the library
the books contained powerful Dark Magic never taught at Hogwarts, and only
read by older students studying advanced Defense Against the Dark Arts.
The hint att the beginning may be in Diagon
Alley's Flourish and Blotts where Harry saw
books as large as paving stones bound in leather.
Phil who is now looking through book 3.
