Voldemort tightens his grip on both the Muggle and wizarding worlds — and Hogwarts is no longer safe. Harry suspects new dangers may lie within the castle.

— Critical consensus, summarised
A moodier, more romantic entry that critics felt was visually beautiful but narratively in service of the bigger climax to come. Memorable for the cave sequence and Dumbledore's death rather than its plotting.
