BEYOND THE WAND The Magic and Mayhem of Growing Up a Wizard

Any fan of the Harry Potter franchise will be delighted by the detailed and thorough view this memoir affords them. Actor Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) shares stories of his early life, which includes not only the expected tales of his involvement with the Harry Potter movies, but also a frank discussion of their effect on the rest of his life, including his friends, family, career, and mental health. In contemplating his roles in other films, such as THE BORROWERS, he describes the process of making movies through humorous, frequently self-deprecating anecdotes. Listeners will feel Felton's appreciation for the projects he's been involved with through the warmth of his narration and the familiarity of his voice.
