Tom Felton’s adolescence was anything but ordinary. His early rise to fame in beloved films like The Borrowers catapulted him into the limelight, but nothing could prepare him for what was to come after he landed the iconic role of the Draco Malfoy, the bleached blonde villain of the Harry Potter movies. For the next ten years, he was at the center of a huge pop culture phenomenon and yet, in between filming, he would go back to being a normal teenager trying to fit into a normal school. Speaking with great candor and his signature humor, Tom shares his experience.

Austen wrote, 'I am going to take a heroine whom no-one but myself will much like' and thus introduces the handsome, clever, rich - and flawed, Emma Woodhouse. Emma is perfectly content with her life and sees no need for either love or marriage; nothing however delights her more than matchmaking her fellow residents of Highbury. But when she ignores the warnings of her good friend Mr. Knightley and attempts to arrange a suitable match for her protegee Harriet Smith, her carefully laid plans soon unravel and have consequences that she never expected.

Story
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Story
Narrator Dan Stevens ( Downton Abbey) presents an uncanny performance of Mary Shelley's timeless gothic novel, an epic battle between man and monster at its greatest literary pitch. In trying to create life, the young student Victor Frankenstein unleashes forces beyond his control, setting into motion a long and tragic chain of events that brings Victor to the very brink of madness. How he tries to destroy his creation, as it destroys everything Victor loves, is a powerful story of love, friendship, scientific hubris, and horror.

Loved hearing the stories
I enjoyed this quick interview with Sam Heughan and a little preview of his memoir. However, the interviewer became annoying fast by leading each question with, "And...". It became quite distracting.

Looking forward to listening to the book
I enjoyed the interview. Sam discussed a number of interesting events in his life. The discussion lead me to purchasing the audible version of a book that I otherwise might have missed. It is really special to listen to the author narrate his own biography.

Interesting and Entertaining
I’d recommend this to anyone who is a fan of Sam Heughan. Sam is a natural storyteller. If you haven’t read Waypoints yet, this is a good introduction into that book. Everything Sam talks about here is covered in Waypoints. You’ll get a glimpse into his hiking adventure and his life.

Its Sam!
I think everything Sam narrates or interviews is spectacular so I may be a bit biased. This is a great interview. Gives the feeling of being a fly on the wall while friends chat. Sam has a real gift of for sharing.
