Jim Dale does a wonderful job narrating the audio version of this book. It's been a while since I last read it, and I was amazed at how much of the plot I had forgotten... I was familiar enough with the story line, however, that it was perfect for quick commutes (5-10 minutes), unlike "Clash of Kings" which I had a hard time following with such short listening periods (which I will finish, some day). I already have "Chamber of Secrets" in my car ready to go.
