Lead[[edit source]]
I've moved the following from the lead to here so that it can be sourced:
- The books were about a bespectacled wizard boy, Harry Potter, who lived with his aunt and uncle and attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He was often targeted by Lord Voldemort, an evil wizard bent on killing him.[additional sources needed]
I doubt this is in-universe at all, but it's possible that these details were given somewhere in prose or comics. If that is the case, it needs to be sourced.
