2 HP Podfics

[takola.livejournal.com]

I recorded these for the hp_podfic_fest and haven't gotten around to reposting them until now. The theme was winter, so it was inevitable that Christmas would creep in. However, neither of these podfics are particularly Christmasy (I know A Wizards Memory is set at a Christmas party, but it's a background issue and mentioned maybe once if at all. A Fruit Tree in WInter is not at all Christmasy).

I adore Stephen Fry, but I've not listened to the Jim Dale version. I read reviews that his Hermione!voice was super irritating and plus - STEPHEN FRY. ^____^

For a REAL audiobook treat - listen to Roy Dotrice reading the Song of Ice and Fire series. HE WAS AWARDED A GUINNESS WORLD RECORD FOR MOST CHARACTER VOICES IN AN AUDIOBOOK. Something like 220 distinct voices? HE IS AWE INSPIRING.

And yes, podfics make me a FANDOM WHORE. I'LL DO ANYTHING FOR MORE PODFICS!

But actually, it's only been for the past year or so that I've been completely overtaken by SPN. I've been reading fanfic for over a decade //is so old OMG// but SPN is the first fandom I've really set down roots in. THOSE BOYS. I LOVE THEM SO MUCH.

//that was a lot of capslock. i...really like podfics?// ^_^;;

Awesome, thank you for the rec! I'll check out those audiobooks.

And YES! Jim Dale did this thing with Hermione, and I cringed every time she said "Harry," (I need to be able to say it to make you understand, but trust me, it's awful).

I'm going to choose one thread and just reply to you there from now on! :D
