Publisher Description
Jim Dale's Grammy Award-winning performance of J.K. Rowling's iconic stories is a listening adventure for the whole family.
'Welcome to the Knight Bus, emergency transport for the stranded witch or wizard. Just stick out your wand hand, step on board and we can take you anywhere you want to go.'
Close your eyes and enter the magical world of Harry Potter. In these editions, Jim Dale's characterful narration is so entertaining, fun, and theatrical you can almost hear the crackle of the fire in the Gryffindor common room.
When the Knight Bus crashes through the darkness and screeches to a halt in front of him, it's the start of another far from ordinary year at Hogwarts for Harry Potter. Sirius Black, escaped mass-murderer and follower of Lord Voldemort, is on the run - and they say he is coming after Harry. In his first ever Divination class, Professor Trelawney sees an omen of death in Harry's tea leaves... But perhaps most terrifying of all are the Dementors patrolling the school grounds, with their soul-sucking kiss...
Having become classics of our time, the Harry Potter stories never fail to bring comfort and escapism. With their message of hope, belonging and the enduring power of truth and love, the story of the Boy Who Lived continues to delight generations of new listeners.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
After another terrible summer with his awful aunt and uncle, Harry Potter has returned for his third year at Hogwarts. 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. 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. Our favorite Harry Potter narrator, English actor and Broadway regular Jim Dale, brings a new level of enchantment to this beloved book. 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. 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.
Customer Reviews
Great 👏
(WARNING: CONTAINS SPOILERS)
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban was another great story written by JK Rowling and narrated by Jim Dale. This was probably my fourth or fifth favorite HP book. But, it was probably my least favorite movie. I thought how Sirius Black was actually Harry’s godfather was interesting, and how Peter Petigru was Scabbers the Rat and framed Sirius was unexpected. Good book, highly recommended.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Alright, let’s get this straight.
The tracks are separated by chapter now, about 20-30 minutes each.
There is nothing in the middle of the book except the part of the book that’s supposed to be there, and there are no plugs!
This book is really worth the money!
The narration is amazing.
And, of course, J.K. Rowling’s creativity never gets old.
Look at the screen name of the person who’s lying (or just really confused) about the ads! “ScamBoss.” Need I say more?
I’m posting this on all the reviews so people know ScamBoss is lying (or really confused). TRUST ME! HE/SHE/THEY IS/ARE LYING!
I think it’s good
I never read it but I have read the other ones so I think it’s good
