Jim Dale's narration is, as always, incredible. What makes it even better, though, is the fantastic cast that plays Rump, the King, Jane, and all the other characters in this updated fairytale. There's so much to love about this audiobook! WOW Blown away by the songs and performances! Jim Dale always delivers and the rest of the cast exceeded all my expectations.

When street magician Carter runs away, he never expects to find friends and magic in a sleepy New England town. But like any good trick, things change instantly as greedy B. B. Bosso and his crew of crooked carnies arrive to steal anything and everything they can get their sticky fingers on. After a fateful encounter with the local purveyor of illusion, Dante Vernon, Carter teams up with five other like-minded kids. Together, using both teamwork and magic, they'll set out to save the town of Mineral Wells from Bosso's villainous clutches. These six Magic Misfits will soon discover adventure, friendship, and their own self-worth in this delightful new series. (Psst. Hey, you! Yes, you! Congratulations on reading this far. As a reward, I'll let you in on a little secret. This book isn't just a book. It's a treasure trove of secrets and ciphers and codes and even stage tricks. Keep your ears peeled and you'll discover more than just a story - you'll find magic.) PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio. Critic Reviews: "An earnest message about discovering the magic in the world and finding the family that suits you." ( Kirkus Reviews) "Fun.... A worthy first volume." ( BCCB) Members Reviews: A kids book EVERYONE will enjoy This book is fantastic! Who would have thunk that Neil Patrick Harris could be such a wonderful author. This book was WAY better than I thought it would be, and I always find it MAGICAL when an author narrates his own audiobook. AND the narration was adjusted to BE an audiobook. I CANNOT WAIT to read the rest. I just can't get over how good this book was, it was perfect. Thank you Mr. Harris, this was wonderful. Loved it! The sound effects are awesome and the last trick is my favorite. I am so excited for the next 3 books. Wo Awesome, I love magic so this was a cool book to read glad I found it Great Narration We listened to this book as a family on a trip. The narration was fun, but the story was not very believable. I like how he explained some magic tricks. Practice, practice, practice!! The magic we've read before... While entertaining, this book is definitely a formulaic hodge-podge of a few other young adult/children's books. The writing evokes a watered down, less clever, version of Series of Unfortunate Events. It's almost as if NPH came up with this book while filming Count Olaf for Netflix. The twists and turns were very predictable, especially at the end. Characters were a little flat and could have used more fleshing out... hopefully something that will be more explored in the next book of the series. The narration was pretty outstanding, except in a few places where NPH's sarcastic tone seemed a bit too forced.

Nevermoor: The Trials of Morrigan Crow Audiobook by Jessica Townsend

Listen to this audiobook in full for free on http://hotaudiobook.com [http://hotaudiobook.com] Title: Nevermoor: The Trials of Morrigan Crow Author: Jessica Townsend Narrator: Gemma Whelan Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs Language: English Release date: 10-31-17 Publisher: Hachette Audio Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 56 votes Genres: Kids, Ages 8-10 Publisher's Summary: A breathtaking, enchanting new series by debut author Jessica Townsend about a cursed girl who escapes death and finds herself in a magical world - but is then tested beyond her wildest imagination. Morrigan Crow is cursed. Having been born on Eventide, the unluckiest day for any child to be born, she's blamed for all local misfortunes, from hailstorms to heart attacks - and, worst of all, the curse means that Morrigan is doomed to die at midnight on her 11th birthday. But as Morrigan awaits her fate, a strange and remarkable man named Jupiter North appears. Chased by black-smoke hounds and shadowy hunters on horseback, he whisks her away into the safety of a secret, magical city called Nevermoor. It's then that Morrigan discovers Jupiter has chosen her to contend for a place in the city's most prestigious organization: the Wundrous Society. In order to join, she must compete in four difficult and dangerous trials against hundreds of other children, each boasting an extraordinary talent that sets them apart - an extraordinary talent that Morrigan insists she does not have. To stay in the safety of Nevermoor for good, Morrigan will need to find a way to pass the tests - or she'll have to leave the city to confront her deadly fate. Perfect for fans of the Harry Potter series and Neil Gaiman, this fast-paced plot and imaginative world has a fresh new take on magic that will appeal to a new generation of listeners. Critic Reviews: "The magical elements are well-written and clever...but the core of this novel lies in Morrigan's realization of her own value, of being a person worth attention and affection. A dark, mystical, and emotional look at a girl who has a complex relationship with magic in a sophisticated and lushly described world." ( The Bulletin) Members Reviews: Hope it becomes a series I listened to this book because I thought it was already a series. Really liked it though. A different take on magic apart from the wizarding world of Harry Potter we're all accustomed to. The trials however, are nothing like Hunger Games. Light and entertaining. Would recommend. if you like Harry Potter... It's like the author took the outline for HP and renamed the characters. Not a bad story, but it was so hard to get past the similarities. Loved it! If you liked Harry Potter, this is a must-read. The only disappointment is that the sequel doesn't come out till Oct. 2018. AMAZING. I LOVED this book. Even though this book just came out, I got it as soon as I could. I read it every single day. I can't wait for the next book to come out. Although, I heard that it took Jessica Townsend 10 years to complete Nevermoor: The trials of Morrigan Crow, so I'm not betting on her next book coming out any time soon. I would definitely recommend this book, it was filled with so many twists and, the characters and settings were so detailed. In case you were wondering (which you probably weren't) why my title has a period at the end, it is because that is all I have to say about this book. It was AMAZING. As magically as Harry Potter -* We loved this book. Can't wait for the sequel. Morgan is the female hero that young girls need in fiction.
