Just imagine how Jo is feeling recently. As though the success of her books wasn't enough, now they are all being transformed into mutlibillion dollar movies, and winning thousands of awards. And to be the first audio book to be entered into a hall of fame. Imagine the honour.

Cool a brand new thing for Harry Potter to excel in!! I thought Stephen Fry had done all the narrating though? Did he give up after so many books? Thats a shame

Jim Dale does a wonderful job, I just despise the way he portrays Hermione's voice, how she supposedly always says "Hawweeee" instead of "Harry."
