Publisher's Summary

Stephen Fry brings the richness of these magical stories to life in the original British recordings.

'There is a plot, Harry Potter. A plot to make most terrible things happen at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry this year.'

Treat your ears to a performance so rich and captivating you'll imagine yourself in the halls of Hogwarts. Wherever you listen, the unmistakable voice of Stephen Fry is guaranteed to guide you ever more deeply into this magical story and transport you to the heart of the adventure.

Harry Potter's summer has included the worst birthday ever, doomy warnings from a house-elf called Dobby, and rescue from the Dursleys by his friend Ron Weasley in a magical flying car! Back at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for his second year, Harry hears strange whispers echo through empty corridors - and then the attacks start. Students are found as though turned to stone... Dobby's sinister predictions seem to be coming true.

Theme music composed by James Hannigan

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.

Outstanding AF

Stephen Fry nails it. Even if you've read the books before it's great to listen to on the way to work or at the gym. Magical

Stephen Fry is PERFECT

Stephen Fry narrates a passionate and convincing story, often sounding very similar to the characters that played the roles in the movie!
The story itself is timeless and the narration brings the Harry Potter world alive.
I’d recommend to the young and young at heart, fantastic for long road trips, getting kids into bed to listen for a while or while washing up.
Every time I replay the books I learn a new snippet or connect the dots of the Harry-Voldemort connection a little more.
Couldn’t recommend highly enough!

Fantastic

Highly recommend reading the series, as narrated by Stephen Fry, especially if you are new to the wizarding world. I think Fry encapsulates the characters' personalities very well which heightens the reading experience.

Incredible Impressions!

Out of the two Harry Potter books I've listened to so far, this was by far read in a way that hooked me in way more than the last one! The voice impressions by Stephen Fry were beyond incredible, they even edited his voice in certain parts like when Mrs Weasley sent him a howler to give it an echo as well as a snake like voice when he heard the voices in the walls. Amazing listen, 100% recommend!
