"'Welcome to the Knight Bus, emergency transport for the stranded witch or wizard. Just stick out your wand hand, step on board and we can take you anywhere you want to go.'"

When the Knight Bus crashes through the darkness and screeches to a halt in front of him, it's the start of another far from ordinary year at Hogwarts for Harry Potter. Sirius Black, escaped mass-murderer and follower of Lord Voldemort, is on the run - and they say he is coming after Harry. In his first ever Divination class, Professor Trelawney sees an omen of death in Harry's tea leaves.... But perhaps most terrifying of all are the Dementors patrolling the school grounds, with their soul-sucking kiss....

Having now become classics of our time, the Harry Potter audiobooks never fail to bring comfort and escapism to listeners of all ages. With its 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.

Theme music composed by James Hannigan.

Mysteries and magic

Reviewed in Australia on 24 July 2021

Someone once told me that this series gets better with each book and I’m certainly find that ! This one was definitely my favorite so far ! Full of adventure , mystery , suspense and lots of magic !!
I’m definitely hooked on Harry , and enjoying it thoroughly !!
I’m enjoying that we see Harry grow into his magic , find more confidence but also discover more and more about his parents and how they have influenced people but also Who he is ultimately !
It’s also great watching Ron and harmonie discover them selves as well and their undying loyalty between them all , between friends, despite differences .

Still enough magic tricks and not a lot of "war and killing" as in later books

As always with Rowling's books, I loved Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban! JK Rowling's words have a curious habit of coming to life, and her characters are funny, and realistic. One of the greatest things about Harry Potter, is that they improve with each book, and you can clearly glimpse the clever, intricate plot Rowling has wove, with cleverly placed foreshadowing and seemingly innocent hints.

A much darker story but a fabulous read with a little something for everyone

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 June 2019

In this book, as Harry approaches adolescence the tone changes. And we get a more interesting, but also more complex and darker story.

Unlike the static characters in other books or series, Harry is getting older, and getting less stable emotionally. The book still appeals to both children and adults but it involves some horror creatures, Dementors and there is lot of focus on Harry’s parents' deaths.

The great thing for children is that the familiar, relatable characters are being brought to life and come across as very realistic. Harry’s friendship with Ron and Hermione takes a different direction in this instalment. Hermione is being forced to make tough choices that impact Harry but Ron in particular. With who she is in constant disagreement. But the book also has an exceptionally strong set of secondary characters like Professor Lupin, the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, a great new character that hides a big hairy secret. Then there is Professor Trelawney for Divination studies. While Hagrid displays his love of all magical creatures. Professor Snape remains enigmatic so that you continue to question his true motives. Cedric Diggory and Cho Chang, who play important roles in later books of the series are introduced as well

The book has are many fun, unexpected and exciting plot points. Many elements in this story are not what they appear at first sight, take for example Sirius Black a prison escapee, who is believed to have betrayed Harry’s parents. The mystery of Lord Voldemort murder of Harry's parents is increasingly central and new details are revealed. And the climax was exhilarating and intense.

Our daughter had to be forced to put the book down. And when pushed for favourites, Prisoner of Azkaban is her favourite Harry Potter book, if not among all the books she has read.

Used hardback - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 March 2020

Verified Purchase

Original harry potter and the prisoner of azkaban 1999. Used hardback copy is as discribed and although edges are yellowed, however all pages and text are clearly readable and intact and there is NO damage at all. Fantastic buy for £2.99 from seller Britbooks LTD.

Third installment of the Harry Potter Series, Harry along with friends Ron and Hermione start their third year at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Who knows what will happen this year as a notoriously dark wizard has escaped from azkaban and is making his way to Hogwarts...but why? And for who?

The book arrived next day good packaged (as amazon usually do).
In this review I will not be saying about the story, it is definetely amazing without doubts. I read the story years ago and now my 7 years old enjoy reading the book.
The book's quality is good, my little one give the book to her friend after she finished, and the book still was in very good condition. It is slightly boring for the little kids though as there are no any illustration ))
Thank you!

Magic Moments

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 January 2022

Verified Purchase

This is the third instalment as I attempt to read this so-called modern classic. I watched the first three or four films as they came out but abandoned reading the books after reading the first one twenty years ago. I was advised to persevere with them and that by the third one I would see what it was all about. This was easily better than the first two and I have begun to warm to the characters especially Ron and Hermione. The plot was also more complex than the first two and I felt it became a page turner towards the end which I hadn’t experienced with the first two.

I will continue and expect further rewards in the final four books. There is a whole universe in here which is admirable. If I am honest compared to Lord of the Rings there is no comparison in terms of the wonder contained. I may change my mind by book 7 . However, this is a huge step up from the first two. We will see.
