Game of Thrones star Natalie Dormer will lend her voice to the audiobook version of Harry Potter: A History of Magic, the companion book to the British Library's exhibition of the same name.

Harry Potter: A History of Magic came out in October 2017 and includes in-depth information about Hogwarts subjects like Herbology and Alchemy, never-before-sen descriptions of magical creatures, and knowledge about how the Wizarding World works. In addition to being an encyclopedia on all things magical, the book also delves into the history of these concepts as Muggles have understood them.

Dormer's audiobook version will come out on October 4th, 2018, and from her statement it sounds like she's excited to be a part of the Potter world:

"There are so many wonderful details to explore and A History of Magic unearths some remarkable gems of information that are sure to have listeners awestruck. It’s been fun to join the Wizarding World family."
