Book Reviews of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Book 1)
Book Review: Great story
Summary: 5 Stars
No surprise on the book being excellent, but Jim Dale's performance in reading the story is captivating. He adds voices, emotion, and excitement which make this far more enjoyable than watching the movie.Book Review: A Must Read For Everyone
Summary: 5 Stars
To be honest, I never thought I would read a Harry Potter book. I believe the books were for children until a respected colleague brought her copy of The Sorcerer's Stone to work one day. I laughed at first until I realized she was serious. To appease her I took it home and started reading.
Quickly I became so wrapped up in the story, I couldn't put it down until I finished. I immediately found the other books and devoured them just as ferociously.
Trust me when I say they are so much better than the movies. No disrespect to the directors and writers, but there is no possible way to give the books full disclosure on the screen. Pick this book up today and you'll find out what I did. This ain't just for the kiddies, it's for everyone who enjoys reading.
PATRICK RALEY is the author of the mystery, detective novel entitled "Precedent of Justice". Find out why Publisher's Weekly calls him "the next John Grisham."
Book Review: Love the series
Summary: 5 Stars
I came to the party a little late on these books but when I started reading them, I couldn't stop. These books got me back into reading. By far my favorite series. Book Review: A good way to begin the series with Jim Dale!
Summary: 3 Stars
This is the first book in the series- but listen to Jim Dale's narration when the character of Hagrid is introduced for example. Read the book, by all means, but this series as read by Mr. Dale compliments the printed page. Perfect!Book Review: Harry Potter

I am very happy with the product itself - the book is in perfect condition even after shipping. However, it took a lot longer to get here than any purchase I've ever done through the Amazon Marketplace. My guess is that when you do the Free SuperSaver Shipping, they take their own precious time getting your order ready.
