Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Golyshev initially scoffed at an offer to translate the fifth book in J. K. Rowling's bestselling series ("Hell no, what am I, 8 years old?"). However, he subsequently joined a team of translators employed by the Russian publisher of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix after complaints of poor translation.

He has not been part of the translating team for any of the other Harry Potter books.
