Which Harry Potter novel by J.K. Rowling was published fourth?

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire was the fourth Harry Potter novel by J.K. Rowling.

Bloomsbury published it in the United Kingdom on 8 July 2000. In the story, Hogwarts hosts the Triwizard Tournament, an international magical competition involving champions from three wizarding schools. Harry is unexpectedly selected as a fourth champion.

The novel marks a major shift in the series. The plot grows more dangerous and politically significant, and the ending brings Lord Voldemort back to physical form. It therefore serves as a bridge between the lighter early adventures and the darker final books.

It followed Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban and preceded Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. The film adaptation was released in 2005 and directed by Mike Newell.
