Explore the Magic of the Wizarding World with Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Book 1

Amazon Customer: The voice acting isn't great and the voice actor mispronounced words that any HP fan knows. Made it hard to enjoy.

Karen Compton: I loved listening to this book! I read the series years ago and have seen the movies, but listening brings them to life again😄 I just wish the series was included in my kindle unlimited membership. The other books are way to expensive to listen to, so this will be my only one I’m afraid. I still loved listening to Book 1!

Juss B: My wife is the big fan of series.
I finally decided to read them but felt better about the audiobook.
I have watched movie couple of times over years and feel although the movie is well made and mostly true to book but are no match.
Book does excellent job building excitement around new and magical things before revealing them.
Characters are very well defined and a lot of extra stuff in books if you are like me and have just watched movies.

kimbacaffeinate: t was wonderful revisiting this story. The last time I did a reread was when I bought the illustrated edition and of course, it all started with me looking at the beautiful illustrations and the next thing you know I was lost to this world. Honestly, it never gets old.

Rowling’s writing is marvelous from pacing to her ability to express the character’s emotions. I know there are folks who have not yet read the series (gasps). I, of course, cannot recommend them enough regardless of format. The movies are brilliant, but only scratch the surface of what the books and audios have to offer. If you love Harry Potter but have never tried audio, this is the perfect time to listen.
