How does the presence of Voldemort influence the events of the books?
- Voldemort is the clear antagonist despite not showing up until the end. How does he feature throughout the story?
- Do you believe that things would have been different had the Ministry taken Harry’s word at the end of Goblet of Fire?

Voldemort is the worst bad guy in the series despite not being present the whole time. Everything revolves around hm because people change their actions in order to stay away from him and to be safe. The story would have definitely been diferent if the Ministry had listened to Harry. More people would have believed that Voldemort was really back and would have protected themselves. Also, Harry and his friends wouldn’t have gone to Ministry to save Sirius and Sirius wouldn’t have been killed. Sirius Black would still be alive if the Ministry had listened to Harry and believed that Voldemort was truley back.

Voldemort is just a complete idiot really, I despise him so much. He strikes fear into the lives of many despite not being present throughout the book. If the Ministry had listened to Harry the security would've been a lot stronger and there would've been a lot more protection/warnings
