I've listened to both the Jim Dale version and Stephen Fry version of
PS/SS and I much prefer the Stephen Fry. I find Jim Dale's character
voices distracting and also I find his intonation is "off" in places.
By the way, if anyone is looking for a reasonably-priced version of
GoF (Stephen Fry) www.sunday-times.co.uk/books are selling it for
£27.49 (45% off). I listened to it over the weekend and it's great.
