There’s a new Harry Potter audiobook coming out next week and it sounds magical.

Yes, while the story of the Boy Who Lived et al is over (for now), it turns out that there’s even more enchanting adventures to be had in the world of witchcraft and wizardry.

Namely, because The Tales of Beedle The Bard will be available next week – and the audiobook features a number of familiar faces voices from the Harry Potter universe.

The book itself is no doubt familiar to Harry Potter fans. However, if you need a refresher, Dumbledore left his copy of The Tales of Beedle The Bard to Hermione after his death – and the story The Tale of the Three Brothers ends up holding the answers the Golden Trio are looking for about the Deathly Hallows.

The audiobook version of The Tales of Beedle The Bard is narrated by Sally Mortemore (librarian Madam Pince), Warwick Davis (Professor Flitwick), Evanna Lynch (Luna Lovegood), Jason Isaacs (Lucius Malfoy), Bonnie Wright (Ginny Weasley), Noma Dumezweni (Hermione Granger in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, London’s West End and New York’s Broadway) and Jude Law (Albus Dumbledore in the Fantastic Beasts films).

The audiobook will be released  on Audible on March 31.

The Tales of Beedle The Bard’s audiobook release is also supporting JK Rowling’s international children’s charity, The Lumos Foundation. The charity helps children worldwide out of institutions, so they can thrive in loving families and communities.
