This is a behind-the-scenes audio documentary, recorded on the set of the movie Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald.

“This film is a different beast.” (Eddie Redmayne)

Available only in audio, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald - Makers, Mysteries and Magic lifts the lid on the moviemaking secrets behind the latest installment in J.K. Rowling's Fantastic Beasts series. Narrator Dan Fogler (who plays No-Maj Jacob Kowalski) will guide you through the process of creating the magical on-screen world and explore the story, themes, and characters of Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald.

Over 100 hours of interviews with the cast and crew have been used to create this unique audio adventure that’s sure to be loved by fans of filmmaking and the Wizarding World. Across its nine chapters, you will explore themes such as what’s next for Newt Scamander, whether we’ve seen every side of Albus Dumbledore, what makes Dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald so dangerous, and what connects the worlds of Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts.

With unrivalled access to the film’s cast, directors, producers, and makers, hear what it takes to build 1927 Paris on a lot just outside London, discover what influenced the design of the Elder Wand, meet the individuals who constructed iconic wizarding world locations including Hogwarts’ Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom - and mastered the craft and artistry required to fill it with authenticity and excitement.

With contributions from actors including Eddie Redmayne (Newt Scamander), Jude Law (Albus Dumbledore), Katherine Waterston (Tina Goldstein), and Alison Sudol (Queenie Goldstein) as well as director David Yates and producer David Heyman.

Give your eyes a rest and your ears a treat. Take a trip behind the scenes of the Wizarding World like never before.

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

First - watch the movie- then enjoy this book - then watch the movie again to “see and hear” what you may have missed the first time! Loved the insights to all aspects of the creation of the movie!

Behind the scenes!!

I almost didn't get this based on the reviews. Dan Fogler was a little obnoxious, but didn't ruin it, and I thought the music was wonderful. Exactly as the description states, "A Behind the Scenes Documentary". It was informative, and I had to go back and watch the movie again.

It's Really Not Bad!

I enjoyed learning more about the making of a favorite movie / series of mine, however, I did feel like Dan Fogler (who I really did enjoy in the movie ) was often a little too much. He seemed to get caught up in his own performance and did not concentrate enough on the documentary aspect.
All in all, I liked the whole thing, learning more about how it was made was fascinating.

Behind the scenes is fun

For those who like to know behind the scenes information about the magic of movie making, this audiobook could be a delight. Dan Fogler's pitch perfect presentation is marred at times with his slap happy "impressions" that may be a hit with children too young to care. The montages of the people involved in the very essential production basics are interesting although, sometimes, one wishes for subtitles to help understand some of the thick accents. What is clear is that these are very talented people who love their work and are proud of their contributions to the Harry Potter film legacy. Their enthusiasm lifts the heart and made it worth the few times I had to rewind in order to understand their unique contributions to the movie.

I love everything set in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. The book held my attention from beginning to end.

A fantastical world

I read before purchasing the book. I did, and it saved the day! This is NOT the novel I wanted. This IS an entertaining look behind the scenes. All the complaints were valid, unless you actually wanted an entertaining behind the scenes look. Ok, Mr Foglers’ voice becomes a bit tiresome at times, as is the long wait between chapters. But, I enjoyed it overall! Now where is the Novel??!!

Read the reviews. Know before you buy!💖

I think if anybody else had narrated this book it would have fallen flat. The narration was perfect the guest appearances by the celebrities was a wonderful insight into how they feel about the movie and the characters and I thoroughly found this entertaining. If you are a fan of the series at all, I suggest listening to this wonderful behind-the-scenes peek at the crimes of Grindelwald.

very entertaining
