All 7 Harry Potter Books - J.K. Rowling Audio Book CDHarry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone by J.K. Rowling (Read by Jim Dale) Brand New (still shrink wrapped): Unabridged. 8.3 hours 7CDs Say you've spent the first 10 years of your life sleeping under the stairs of a family who loathes you. Then, in an absurd, magical twist of fate you find yourself surrounded by wizards, a caged snowy owl, a phoenix-feather wand, and jellybeans that come in every flavor, including strawberry, curry, grass, and sardine. Not only that, but you discover that you are a wizard yourself! This is exactly what happens to young Harry Potter in J.K. Rowling's enchanting, funny debut novel, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. In the nonmagic human world--the world of "Muggles"--Harry is a nobody, treated like dirt by the aunt and uncle who begrudgingly inherited him when his parents were killed by the evil Voldemort. But in the world of wizards, small, skinny Harry is famous as a survivor of the wizard who tried to kill him. He is left only with a lightning-bolt scar on his forehead, curiously refined sensibilities, and a host of mysterious powers to remind him that he's quite, yes, altogether different from his aunt, uncle, and spoiled, piglike cousin Dudley.A mysterious letter, delivered by the friendly giant Hagrid, wrenches Harry from his dreary, Muggle-ridden existence: "We are pleased to inform you that you have been accepted at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." Of course, Uncle Vernon yells most unpleasantly, "I AM NOT PAYING FOR SOME CRACKPOT OLD FOOL TO TEACH HIM MAGIC TRICKS!" Soon enough, however, Harry finds himself at Hogwarts with his owl Hedwig... and that's where the real adventure--humorous, haunting, and suspenseful--begins. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, first published in England as Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, continues to win major awards in England. So far it has won the National Book Award, the Smarties Prize, the Children's Book Award, and is short-listed for the Carnegie Medal, the U.K. version of the Newbery Medal. This magical, gripping, brilliant book--a future classic to be sure--will leave kids clamoring for Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling (Read by Jim Dale) Brand New (still shrink wrapped): Unabridged. 8.3 hours 7CDs It's hard to fall in love with an earnest, appealing young hero like Harry Potter and then to watch helplessly as he steps into terrible danger! And in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, the much anticipated sequel to the award-winning Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, he is in terrible danger indeed. As if it's not bad enough that after a long summer with the horrid Dursleys he is thwarted in his attempts to hop the train to the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to begin his second year. But when his only transportation option is a magical flying car, it is just his luck to crash into a valuable (but clearly vexed) Whomping Willow. Still, all this seems like a day in the park compared to what happens that fall within the haunted halls of Hogwarts.Chilling, malevolent voices whisper from the walls only to Harry, and it seems certain that his classmate Draco Malfoy is out to get him. Soon it's not just Harry who is worried about survival, as dreadful things begin to happen at Hogwarts. The mysteriously gleaming, foot-high words on the wall proclaim, "The Chamber of Secrets Has Been Opened. Enemies of the Heir, Beware." But what exactly does it mean? Harry, Hermione, and Ron do everything that is wizardly possible--including risking their own lives--to solve this 50-year-old, seemingly deadly mystery. This deliciously suspenseful novel is every bit as gripping, imaginative, and creepy as the first; familiar student concerns--fierce rivalry, blush-inducing crushes, pedantic professors--seamlessly intertwine with the bizarre, horrific, fantastical, or just plain funny. Once again, Rowling writes with a combination of wit, whimsy, and a touch of the macabre that will leave readers young and old desperate for the next installment. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling (Read by Jim Dale) Brand New (still shrink wrapped): Unabridged. 11.8 hours 10CDs For most children, summer vacation is something to look forward to. But not for our 13-year-old hero, who's forced to spend his summers with an aunt, uncle, and cousin who detest him. The third book in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series catapults into action when the young wizard "accidentally" causes the Dursleys' dreadful visitor Aunt Marge to inflate like a monstrous balloon and drift up to the ceiling. Fearing punishment from Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon (and from officials at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry who strictly forbid students to cast spells in the nonmagic world of Muggles), Harry lunges out into the darkness with his heavy trunk and his owl Hedwig.As it turns out, Harry isn't punished at all for his errant wizardry. Instead he is mysteriously rescued from his Muggle neighborhood and whisked off in a triple-decker, violently purple bus to spend the remaining weeks of summer in a friendly inn called the Leaky Cauldron. What Harry has to face as he begins his third year at Hogwarts explains why the officials let him off easily. It seems that Sirius Black--an escaped convict from the prison of Azkaban--is on the loose. Not only that, but he's after Harry Potter. But why? And why do the Dementors, the guards hired to protect him, chill Harry's very heart when others are unaffected? Once again, Rowling has created a mystery that will have children and adults cheering, not to mention standing in line for her next book. Fortunately, there are four more in the works. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K. RowlingBrand New (still shrink wrapped): Unabridged. 20 hours 17CDs In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, J.K. Rowling offers up equal parts
danger and delight--and any number of dragons, house-elves, and death-defying
challenges. Now 14, her orphan hero has only two more weeks with his Muggle
relatives before returning to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Yet
one night a vision harrowing enough to make his lightning-bolt-shaped scar burn
has Harry on edge and contacting his godfather-in-hiding, Sirius Black.
Happily, the prospect of attending the season's premier sporting event, the
Quidditch World Cup, is enough to make Harry momentarily forget that Lord
Voldemort and his sinister familiars--the Death Eaters--are out for murder. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling Brand New (Brand New - still shrink-wrapped): Unabridged. 23 hours 23CDs As his fifth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry approaches,
15-year-old Harry Potter is in full-blown adolescence, complete with regular
outbursts of rage, a nearly debilitating crush, and the blooming of a powerful
sense of rebellion. It's been yet another infuriating and boring summer with
the despicable Dursleys, this time with minimal contact from our hero's non-Muggle
friends from school. Harry is feeling especially edgy at the lack of news from
the magic world, wondering when the freshly revived evil Lord Voldemort will
strike. Returning to Hogwarts will be a relief... or will it? Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince by J.K. Rowling Brand New (still shrink wrapped): Unabridged. 19 hours 17CDs The long-awaited, eagerly anticipated, arguably over-hyped Harry Potter and
the Half-Blood Prince has arrived, and the question on the minds of kids,
adults, fans, and skeptics alike is, "Is it worth the hype?" The
answer, luckily, is simple: yep. A magnificent spectacle more than worth the
price of admission, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince will blow you away.
However, given that so much has gone into protecting the secrets of the book
(including armored trucks and injunctions), don't expect any spoilers in this
review. It's much more fun not knowing what's coming--and in the case of
Rowling's delicious sixth book, you don't want to know. Just sit tight, despite
the earth-shattering revelations that will have your head in your hands as you
hope the words will rearrange themselves into a different story. But take one
warning to heart: do not open Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince until you
have first found a secluded spot, safe from curious eyes, where you can tuck in
for a good long read. Because once you start, you won't stop until you reach
the very last page. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling Brand New (still shrink wrapped): Unabridged. 23 Hours 17CDs Begun a decade ago and encompassing six shelf-bending novels, the seventh
and concluding volume of the international literary phenomenon that is the
Harry Potter saga comes to a bombshell-packed -- and oh so satisfying --
conclusion in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, arguably the most wildly
anticipated release in modern publishing history. About the Author J K Rowling:Joanne Rowling was born in South Gloucestershire, England on 31 July 1965, on the outskirts of Bristol. There is some confusion as to exactly where; Rowling has said she was born in Chipping Sodbury, whereas her birth certificate apparently claims she was born in the Cottage Hospital at Yate. Her sister Di was born when Rowling was almost two . The family moved to Winterbourne, Bristol when Rowling was four, and then to Tutshill, near Chepstow, Wales at the age of nine. She attended secondary school at Wyedean School and College. In December 1990, Rowling's mother succumbed to a decade-long battle with multiple sclerosis. She is not planning to write an eighth Harry Potter book, and has stated, "I can't say I'll never write another book about that world just because I think, what do I know, in ten years' time I might want to return to it but I think it's unlikely." However, Rowling has said she will be writing an encyclopaedia of Harry Potter's wizarding world consisting of various unpublished material and notes. Any profits from such a book would be given to charity. During a news conference at Hollywood's Kodak Theatre in 2007, Rowling, when asked how the encyclopaedia was coming along, said, "It's not coming along, and I haven't started writing it. I never said it was the next thing I'd do." As of the end of 2007, Rowling has said that the encyclopaedia could take up to ten years to complete, stating "There is no point in doing it unless it is amazing. The last thing I want to do is to rush something out". In July 2007, Rowling said that she wants to dedicate "lots" of her time to her family, but is currently "sort of writing two things", one for children and the other for adults. She did not give any details about the two projects but did state that she was excited because the two book situation reminded her of writing the Philosopher's Stone, explaining how she was then writing two books until Harry took over. She stated in October 2007 that her future work was unlikely to be in the fantasy genre, explaining, "I think probably I've done my fantasy....it would be incredibly difficult to go out and create another world that didn't in some way overlap with Harry's or maybe borrow a little too much from Harry." In November 2007, Rowling said that she was working on another book, a "half-finished book for children that I think will probably be the next thing I publish." In March 2008, Rowling confirmed that her "political fairy tale" for children was nearing completion. In March 2008, Rowling revealed in interview that she had returned to writing in Edinburgh cafés, intent on composing a new novel for children. "I will continue writing for children because that's what I enjoy," she told The Daily Telegraph. "I am very good at finding a suitable café; I blend into the crowd and, of course, I don't sit in the middle of the bar staring all around me." |
