  • This was probably my favorite of the series. It goes into the backstory and provides the greatest understanding of the world Harry Potter lives in.

  • Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

  • Ever since I started from the first Harry Potter book, J. K. Rowling's words drew me into the wizardry that she wrote. My favorite part of this book is when Harry finds out that Sirius Black is his godfather.

  • This has always been my favorite book of the series. There's so much mystery and so many different plot lines in this one, and you find out the most about Harry and his family.

  • If a real life school offers a compulsory subject with a teaching quality as bad as the "defense against dark art" offered by Hogwarts in the first three books, the school should obviously be in real trouble......

  • I listened to this one for the first time and love it. The narrator, Jim Dale, has improved since the first novel. I can't wait to listen to the next one.

Read by Jim Dale
Running time: 11 hrs., 48 mins. 10 CDs.

For twelve long years, the dread fortress of Azkaban held an infamous prisoner named Sirius Black. Convicted of killing thirteen people with a single curse, he was said to be the heir apparent to the Dark Lord, Voldemort.

Now he has escaped, leaving only two clues as to where he might be headed: Harry Potter's defeat of You-Know-Who was Black's downfall as well. And the Azkban guards heard Black muttering in his sleep, "He's at Hogwarts...he's at Hogwarts."

Harry Potter isn't safe, not even within the walls of his magical school, surrounded by his friends. Because on top of it all, there may well be a traitor in their midst.
