obert Galbraith’s Lethal White made a surgical strike on the Audible
number one spot for September, shooting straight to the top on its very first month out of the gate. It displaced Stephen Fry’s five-month number one Mythos—somewhat ungrateful of Galbraith’s alter-ego, J K Rowling, for whom Fry voiced all 125 hours of the Harry Potter series. Between them, Fry and
Rowling have topped the audio download list 16 times.Te pair spent six months at the top with Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, and Fry racked up a further eight poles with his narration of Sherlock Holmes: Te Definitive
Collection and his written-and- narrated Mythos. Rowling has added a further two as Galbraith. Robert Glenister narrates
the Cormoran Strike series and, following on from Career of Evil’s Audible top spot in October 2015, chalks up his second number one.
