-------------- Original message from "Miller, Gina (JIS)" : -------------- 

>I live in the US so I have previously only listened to the Jim Dale versions. Could someone tell me if they think one is better than the other and what the differences are? I am sure the wording is different but what about accents and general mood of the book? I would love both UK and US opinions from people that have heard both! Or if you are from somewhere else and read listened to both sets.

I have both the US & UK audio versions of all 5 books. The US is version is more entertaining but the UK version is more true to the original wording. I especially like the UK version due to the differences in slang and language were the most interesting. Both are great and entertaining.
