Der britische Schauspieler Tom Felton, bekannt vor allem als Draco Malfoy aus den Harry-Potter-Filmen, blickt in seiner Autobiografie hinter die Kulissen einer der größten Filmproduktionen der letzten Jahrzehnte, und erzählt offen und mit seinem ihm eigenen Humor, wie es war, auf der Leinwand aufzuwachsen und Teil der Welt der Zauberer von Hogwarts zu sein.Er berichtet von dem Spagat, zwischen Dreharbeiten und Presseterminen immer wieder in ein normales Leben und in eine normale Schule zurückzukehren, und wie die Dreharbeiten im Mittelpunkt eines weltweiten Popkultur-Phänomens und gestandener Filmstars wie Alan Rickman und Maggie Smith wirklich waren. Von Freundschaften, die er in den zehn Jahren der Filmreihe schloss und die bis heute bestehen, von den Höhen und Tiefen des Ruhms und von der ungewohnten Realität des Erwachsenenlebens nach Abschluss der Harry-Potter-Dreharbeiten.Ein unterhaltsames wie erhellendes Buch mit tollen Einblicken in die magische Welt der Harry-Potter-Filmproduktion aus Sicht eines Protagonisten.
