About this listen

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

There it was, hanging in the sky above the school: the blazing green skull with a serpent tongue, the mark Death Eaters left behind whenever they had entered a building... wherever they had murdered...

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.

When Dumbledore arrives at Privet Drive one summer night to collect Harry Potter, his wand hand is blackened and shrivelled, but he does not reveal why. Secrets and suspicion are spreading through the wizarding world, and Hogwarts itself is not safe. Harry is convinced that Malfoy bears the Dark Mark: there is a Death Eater amongst them. Harry will need powerful magic and true friends as he explores Voldemort's darkest secrets, and Dumbledore prepares him to face his destiny...

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.

Poor Old Group (Sorry if I spelt it wrong)

Why’d they call Group nearly human, it’s just mean. Overall I think the book is my favourite in the series. It’s amazing!

Masterful Audiobook Production: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince narrated by Stephen Fry

I cannot recommend Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince enough as an audiobook experience, especially when narrated by Stephen Fry. Fry does an amazing job of engaging the listener and bringing the story to life with his impeccable vocal range and expressive delivery.

Of course, it goes without saying that J.K. Rowling is an amazing author, and the combination of her literary prowess with Fry’s narration is a masterclass in Audible production. The Half-Blood Prince is one of the most beloved books in the Harry Potter series, and with Fry’s narration, it truly comes to life in a whole new way.

Listeners will be transported to Hogwarts once again as Harry and his friends face new challenges and revelations about the wizarding world. Fry’s narration adds depth and nuance to the already rich story, and his portrayal of the characters is both convincing and captivating.

Overall, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is a must-listen for fans of the series, and Stephen Fry’s narration only enhances the experience. It’s no wonder that this audiobook has become a classic in its own right, and it’s sure to delight listeners for years to come.

Excellent, beautiful!

My favorite of the series, made more beautiful by Stephen Fry. His narration from The Cave to The Lighting-Struck Tower to The White Tomb is just perfect. Left me crying by the end.

Spectacular

Each book is special in a different way. I think this is the one where the personality of the sixteen years old Harry comes out the most, and KJR carries this on magisterially.
