An approved textbook at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry since its first publication, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is an indispensable guide to the magical beasts of the wizarding world. It showcases a menagerie of magical creatures, explained enchantingly by noted magizoologist, Newt Scamander, who you may remember from the film series of the same name.

And, who better to narrate this compendium of beasts than Eddie Redmayne, Oscar-winning star of the Fantastic Beasts films. The audiobook uses thrilling soundscapes to bring the beasts off the page.

The shelves of the Hogwarts Library are also home to many more fascinating books. If you have enjoyed Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them you might want to check out some of its other treasures: Quidditch Through the Ages and The Tales of Beedle the Bard.

If you could sum up Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them in three words, what would they be?

informative, bad audio

What was one of the most memorable moments of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them?

having eddie redmayne as the narrator

Did Eddie Redmayne do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

There weren't any different characters. But he did an excellent job using the same "Newt" manner of speaking that he did in the movie.

Any additional comments?

I loved the book. The content and performance were fantastic. However, the audio editing caused some major problems for me. The fact that it went lower every time he read a "note" made it very hard for me to hear those parts. The added sound effects took away from the performance as well. Worth a listen but don't try to use a speaker. Headphones only or you will miss large sections of the book

Audio Editing gone wrong.

Having Eddie Redmayne narrate this was a wonderful idea. Had a lot of information and was pretty funny. Chuckled out loud a few times.

Absolutely delightful.

I think this is cool and interesting to learn more about the creatures more in depth. I’m glad I bought this as an audiobook as I think it’s much better that way listening to everything and the background noises they made when announcing the animals. But I didn’t know it wasn’t going to be the story until after now I need to actually go buy the other book lol.

I thought it was the actual story

Great Listen!

I wish that it had excluded some more story to it. It was good though.

It’s not perfect
