Just no.īut that pales in comparison to how obnoxious the plugs in the middle of this book are. Do they really think I just payed a premium price to hear that the book I know and love is "brought to me by Audible"? No. ADS! It's hard to describe the degree to which I hate whoever decided that adding a plug for Audible at the beginning of the book was a good idea. I cannot believe that this, the official audiobook on iTunes/iBooks sanctioned by Rowling herself, that costs almost $35, has ads. Horrified at the thoughtlessness with which this audiobook was published.
That being said, this audio product is a disgrace to the format. I was thrilled when I found out I could finally get a proper digital copy. I've listened to the cassette version more times than I can count. The only thing better than reading it is listening to the stunning performance by Jim Dale. Wonderful audiobook ruined by ads and lazinessįirst and foremost: I absolutely love this book. As much fun as the books are to read, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban shows how the audio versions can cast their own enchanting spell. One minute he’s snarling and cackling through a particularly spine-tingling moment, and the next he has us laughing out loud with his dead-on delivery of one of the Weasley brothers’ bad jokes. Our favorite Harry Potter narrator, English actor and Broadway regular Jim Dale, brings a new level of enchantment to this beloved book. Rowling is a master of plotting throughout this increasingly dark tale, dropping in tiny, seemingly insignificant details that end up playing a role in the intensely thrilling finale. But it quickly turns out it’s not going to be an easy one-all sorts of strange things are happening in the wizarding world, including notorious murderer Sirius Black’s escape from the infamous Azkaban prison and the rumors that he’s out to get Harry Potter! J.K. After another terrible summer with his awful aunt and uncle, Harry Potter has returned for his third year at Hogwarts.
