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.

Featured Article: The top 100 fantasy listens of all time


When compiling our list of the best fantasy listening out there, we immediately came up against the age-old question: Is this fantasy or science fiction? The distinction is not as clear as you may think. Dragons, elves, and wizards are definitely fantasy, but what about wizards that also fly space ships? (Looking at you, Star Wars.) For the sake of fantasy purity, the top 100 fantasy listens include the best audio works in all manner of fantasy subgenres.

I probably sound like a heretic to people who LOVE Harry Potter, but after book two, I had second thoughts about continuing this series. That whole book felt so repetitive. True, it repeated a cool story, but I get bored with that kind of thing. The start of book 3 introduced a funny and despicable new aunt which added freshness to Harry's summer with his aunt and uncle. The middle third of the book did feel a bit repetitive, but still amusing enough. The last third played out the plot of the escaped prisoner who was supposedly trying to kill Harry. This was fast-moving and engaging. As a result, I will soon go on to book 4.

Better than Harry Potter book 2

I love this series. The depth of where this particular story takes the reader, along with the intricate weaving of brilliant magical experiences, brings such fullness that even at the end there are no questions left. And so beautifully, a bit of levity and a good belly laugh closes the last page. Listened all the way through, enjoying the narrator just as equally !!

The best book ever!

Listening to all these books again, listened to the first 3 in a week and, although I know most people complain about the performance, I’ve grown use to it. He makes the voices fit after a while.

Loved it
