Summary
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.

Over all good listen
I really enjoyed this book - especially Eddie Redmayne's ability to make the mere facts of the A-Z nature of this book a treat for the ears :)
Do no expect a thrilling story to this book, the introduction is intruiging but apart from that it is very fact-like. However, I would definitely reccommend to any Harry Potter fan as there are a lot of familiar beasts that muster up fond memories from the Harry Potter series.

Nearly 5*, not quite though.
While I did enjoy this audiobook thanks to the great writing of J.K., the reason for not giving it 5* is that the narration (which is absolutely fantastic) sometimes was a bit too quiet or too loud, so it was just ever so slightly difficult to hear every word without puncturing my eardrums. Note: I did listen to it in my car which is possibly why the quiet parts of the narration seemed too quiet, however I have not experienced anything similar with other audio books. The nature of this book is like an encyclopedia, a book of beasts and where to find them, literally. There is only a splash of history in it, therfore there is no real story quality to it apart from linking some beasts to other characters in J.K.s universe, which is satisfying to most fans of hers who have read all her books. That being said I did enjoy it and would recommend it.

A must for young Mythology enthusiasts
I'm a big Eddy Redmane fan, so I thoroughly enjoyed this performance. it may be greedy to say so but I wish this book had been lengthened during its revision to include some more magical monsters - it is little more than a paragraph per creature but for a young listener or someone less invested in the real nitty gritty of how something that doesn't exist goes about it's day to day nonexistence should still find pleasure in this.
