About this listen

Mortal Engines is now a major motion picture produced by Peter Jackson!

* "Reeve's [Mortal Engines] remains a landmark of visionary imagination." -- School Library Journal, starred review"A breathtaking work of imagination, Hester Shaw is a heroine for the ages. The moment we finished reading [Mortal Engines] we knew we wanted to make it into a movie." -- Producer Peter Jackson

Philip Reeve's epic city-eat-city adventure series continues with Mortal Engines Book 2: Predator's Gold.

With the great Traction City of London completely destroyed, Tom Natsworthy and Hester Shaw travel across the world, trading with other airships and adventuring on the exciting and exotic routes of the Bird Roads. When their little scrapyard aircraft is pursued by rocket-firing gunships, the ice city of Anchorage offers them sanctuary. But as Tom and Hester soon discover, it is no safe refuge. Devastated by plague in recent years and haunted by ghosts and madness, Anchorage is headed for the Dead Continent of North America. It's a perilous course, one that will take them directly into a firestorm of danger and conflict.Mortal Engines is now a major motion picture produced by Peter Jackson!

I was ready to give up on audio books after the first book, but I had extra credits left. Compared to the first book, this time the stakes are lower, the style better, the characters more likable. The author has convinced me to hang on to his mortal engines and I'll pick up the next in the series with my next credit.

a much better book than the first.

I've enjoyed the first 2 books of the series, but I believe the first had better world building, where the 2nd book seemed to expand on the characters a bit more.

Really enjoyable series so far

I have always like books that makes you think of what could be, living in a world different from our own.

This author really has created a new world in which I have emerged myself in. Not only is the story believable but it gives me goose bumps.

Wonderful world

I really enjoy this series. The man that reads it is very good and accents and reads with just enough gravitas. I enjoy the characters and the plot, and I feel the book is very well paced. I often worry with sequels that the story will just be a rehashing of what happened the first time but this was refreshingly different and still interesting. Love this series.
