The hardest thing Potter fans ever had to do was align themselves with the fact that the book series was over, and so were the movies. But with The Tales of Beedle the Bard, an audio book inspired by JK Rowling's iconic series, you can now revisit Potterverse. Stories like the Tale of the Three Brothers, which is beautifully depicted in the penultimate movie Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, and The Fountain of Fair Fortune, will take you to a different world.
Sally Mortemore, who plays librarian Madam Pince in the movies, and is the voice of JK Rowling in the audio book, told mid-day she was surprised when this project came to life. "I couldn't believe it, and then, I was the voice of Rowling. How fabulous is that!" she said in a telephonic interview from London.
