Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Book 7

De: J.K. Rowling

Narrado por: Jim Dale

Jim Dale's Grammy Award-winning performance of J.K. Rowling's iconic stories is a listening adventure for the whole family.

'Give me Harry Potter,' said Voldemort's voice, 'and none shall be harmed. Give me Harry Potter, and I shall leave the school untouched. Give me Harry Potter, and you will be rewarded.'

Close your eyes and enter the magical world of Harry Potter. In these editions, Jim Dale's characterful narration is so entertaining, fun, and theatrical you can almost hear the crackle of the fire in the Gryffindor common room.

As he climbs into the sidecar of Hagrid's motorbike and takes to the skies, leaving Privet Drive for the last time, Harry Potter knows that Lord Voldemort and the Death Eaters are not far behind. The protective charm that has kept Harry safe until now is broken, but he cannot keep hiding. The Dark Lord is breathing fear into everything Harry loves and to stop him Harry will have to find and destroy the remaining Horcruxes. The final battle must begin - Harry must stand and face his enemy...

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.

I'm so sad it's over!!

I have to admit I always wondered what the big deal was about this series; although I saw some of the movies years ago and enjoyed them, I never read the books. When they became available on Kindle/Audible however I ordered the first book for my 8 y.o. daughter thinking she’d like to listen to it. Then I thought I’d try it out and see if I liked it myself; I was a little hesitant having already seen the movie and worried that listening to the book might be repetitive. But, I learned quickly that I was SO WRONG. There is SO much more detail, storyline, insight and humor, amongst many other things, woven into the pages that of course you don’t see on a DVD. I ended up listening to all 7 of the audiobooks in just under 2 months, and I finished Deathly Hallows about 4 days ago and I feel SO EMPTY! Lol! There is nothing else that will measure up/compare to this series or its writer. I am going to start on JK Rowling’s ‘adult’ books next I think, but I have half a mind to re-listen to my favorite Harry Potter books first, even this soon after finishing them, which I’ve NEVER done. I love the characters, the effortless way the story builds throughout all 7 books and I love the fact that something that might have happened in book 2 or 3 might be referenced in later books. I also loved the “real” way that certain things that weren’t obvious in the beginning of the series (i.e. whom Harry ends up with) develop in a way that feels completely natural and of course like that was meant to happen all along. Nothing in any of the HP books feels forced or conveniently created to serve a plotline that otherwise might be struggling. Despite its theme of witchcraft and wizardry Harry Potter seems very human and even relatable at times, thanks to the genius woman who created him, especially when it comes to his relationship with his closest friends. I think that’s why it’s so hard to leave them behind.

Oh and yes, I agree with many other reviewers that Jim Dale was the one and only narrator who could've brought this story to life in the amazing way that he did. So many characters, so many distinct voices, and he nailed them all in a way that I found myself comparing HIS version to the movie versions and, in many cases, finding I preferred Jim's.

I will miss Harry, Hermione, Ron, Sirius, Dumbledore, Hagrid, Snape, all the characters who made these books what they were, but I might have to revisit them soon because I’m not sure I’ll be able to handle this impending post-HP depression hahaha. Wish me luck...

What can I say, Harry Potter is the best!

Jim Dale is the most talented narrator and makes the books come to life even more so than the movies.

Didn't want it to be over.

I didn't want it to be over. Great book and can wait to RE read it and listen to it again.

Fantastic as ever!

Jim Dale never lets me down in any of his audio work. This is by far his best! Best voices! The story is as enriching and gripping as ever! Love it!

Jim Dale is the best!!!

besides the fact that harry Potter is amazing, Jim Dale, the narrator is simply the best. his voices are great, his meter, his flow, everything. he is the best

great performance

not my favorite book of the series, but my favorite series by far. I love Harry Potter for the magical innocence and creative brilliance. JK Rowling is a genius! this book was a necessary ending, but a little too dark for me. From the death at the end of book six on, I never really recaptured the romance of this series. As a teacher, I highly recommend this series to my students. The vocabulary, complicated storyline, symbolism and foreshadowing are rare in modern books. it is impossible to read the first book without longing to read the rest and waiting for an owl with a Hogwarts acceptance letter.
Jim Dale makes this book come alive ! superb narration!

Magical End

And this concludes the original Harry Potter series. There were ups and downs, joys and sorrows, and I loved rereading it all. From Hermione and Ron's bickering to Harry's relationship with Ginny, from Ron's success in getting on the Quidditch team to Hermione's realization that the Hallows were real, to Harry's ultimate decision that saves not only Hogwarts but the entire Wizarding World. This book ends a tale of friendship that so many people enjoyed reading about, and yet it is not the end but the middle of the story.

Rowling was truly inspired to write such a wonderful story and watching the characters grow and change was my favorite part. From an unsure boy who was abused by his uncle and aunt to the hero who rejected power to defeat his enemy, Harry Potter is a protagonist I love reading about. From the second-in-everything Ronald Weasley who stepped onto the Hogwarts Express to the man who realized that being the popular one is a matter of perspective. From the brainy girl with no friends to the woman who eventually became Minister of Magic and helped to protect the rights of non-Wizards. All of their stories are fantastic and sad at the same time.

If you have the time to follow a seven-book series, definitely pick up this amazing series. Be prepared to laugh, cry, and jump up and down with victory in each book. If you enjoy fantasy and magic with lots of friendship, pick up 'The Philosopher's Stone' and start the journey. Or, if you're an old hat at Hogwarts, reread this amazing series to sink back into the glorious world that J.K. Rowling has made.
