Some of you maybe aware of the BBC unabridged audio book of the His Dark Materials trilogy, unlike most audio books which has one person telling the whole story, it involves a full cast playing the voices of each character with another person reading the narrative, in this case, Philip Pullman himself. I thought that this treatment would be brilliant for the Harry Potter series. My plan is to get members of this community recording the dialogue, whilst keeping the narrator of the British edition of the audio book (the legend that is Steven Fry). Obviously this wouldn't be intended for sale, just a fun project.
Would love some opinion of this idea, or if you're interested in getting involved, let me know. To keep with the location of the series, people would want to get involve would need to either be british themselves or be able to do a convincing british accent.
Look forward to your replies

This sounds amazing! Do you plan on doing all of the books or just one?
I'd love to eventually do all of them, however I think I'll just focus on the 1st book for now, considering the vast number of characters in just that one, it's gonna need a lot of people/time to even get the relativity short philosopher's stone done, let along the longer later ones
