About this listen

When an eerie voice interrupts Christian's ordinary life, the familiar scene of the Fall Valley Boarding School crumbles into uncertainty. Soon, this boy's worries are shifted from the troubles of his past to the terrifying disturbances that haunt him at every turn.

In a matter of days, the menacing voices and shadowy shapes become the least of his troubles. Christian decides he must face his foes or live forever in fear. In doing so, a mysterious force drags him into a strange and unfamiliar land where the unnatural terrors are somehow perfectly catered to torment him.

It isn't long before Christian is discovered by the inhabitants of this new realm. A peculiar but seemingly trustworthy fellow leads him to safety and introduces him to an ancient kingdom that has been lost for ages. Christian may think himself a victim of circumstance, but he soon discovers he has been chosen to determine the fate of an ancient people.

The task may seem impossible, but if Christian does not succeed, hundreds of lives may be lost...and billions cursed forever.

The terrors are relentless, the secrets are endless, and the expectations that are thrown upon this 13-year-old boy are almost overwhelming. The past may have stolen his hope for the future, but Christian must decide if he has the courage to abandon his doubts and seize the path to a truly unfathomable destiny.

pretty good book for YA

I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Although this is clearly geared towards a younger audience, I still found it entertaining. The author did a great job of tailoring the content without just dumbing it down. The alternate reality premise was really interesting. The narration is well done and was very engaging. All in all, I thought this book is worth checking out for most sci fi fans.

Perfect adventure for children


Recommended if you like fantastical adventuress & to want to be immersed in a Unique world. And if you want to embark on A magical quest about a young boy who must face his fears & learn to trust as he grows up.
This book is similar to the classic a wrinkle in time.
The characters are likable & realistic & the villains aren’t too scary for kids.
This Adventure is full of heartfelt emotions, but it is over explained at times ( It is a books for children after all).
The pace is a little bit slow, ( as no one ever explains what is really going on until the end) but the world building is imaginative, enchanting & worth the read. My niece is looking forward to the sequel!

standard young adult

Standard young adult and you kind of get what you expect but that doesn't mean what we get isn't well done.

Awesome YA Fantasy Novel

"This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review."

I really liked this book. After reading the synopsis, I knew I was getting a story that did seem kind of familiar. The author's execution of the story set it apart from those other stories, though. Following Christian as he traverses through a strange and dangerous world, I was taken into a journey along side with him and his traveling companions; on a journey that is most unique and unlike others.

Performance of the Audiobook was OK - they were good, but could seriously benefit from a pop filter. She almost blew out my car stereo with any loud P-word. :)

I loved the story-arc and the development of the plot, plus the addition of enough backstory to understand just the right amount to keep us going. I am very eager to see what happens next.

Character development was very good for Christian, and good for other characters. The Christian development is dark and twisted, he is no marysue!

I cant really find much I didnt like about this book, save for the reader's voice of Christian.. which isnt on the author. :)

Overrall, 4.5 stars, would recommend to others. I am stil waiting to hear back from the author to know when book 2 is coming out!

Original and unexpected

This is the first book I’ve read/listened to by this author and I would listen to another.
This is definitely appropriate for teens to adult. It’s not a wholly new premise- a realm in an alternate reality, a people’s that are trapped there and the young boy is the only hope for release- but it is a very well done, imaginative world with twists and characters that add originality well beyond the basic premise. The book does not end on a cliffhanger per se, yet it does obviously lead into the next book. It’s and interesting way she’s chosen to end this book. I liked it.

This is the first book I’ve listened to by this narrator ( Becca Scott) and I would love listen to another. She does a wonderful job giving each character a distinct sound and personality.

There are no explicit sex scenes, excessive violence or swearing.

Pleasantly surprised

I have not listened to books from this genre before and although it feels like a young teenager or young adult aimed story I did enjoy it and I am sure other older adults will too.
After a somewhat slow start the pace picks up and had me hooked. The writing is good and the storyline moves along quite well.
There are twists aplenty in the story and just when you think all is well and Christian has triumphed another twist in the tale surprises you.
Well worth your time listening to this story.
