Kds & I listened to the series and loved it!

Kids kept asking for "more story" everytime we'd get in the car. I'm glad I finally found a series a mom, a 9y/o boy and a 7y/o girl can enjoy!!

Incredible! A must listen!

Loved all of it. At first I was not a fan. It was a male narrator and about kids. But oh boy am I happy I kept at it. It was beautiful.

Good, but not as good as I hoped.

Would you listen to The Council of Mirrors again? Why?

Yes, I'll listen again because it's the end of the series.

What did you like best about this story?

It wrapped up the series-long story.

Have you listened to any of L. J. Ganser’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, I've listened to the entire Sisters Grimm series. L. J. Ganser did as well with this book as he has with the entire series. He's no Jim Dale (Harry Potter US version, Petter and the Starcatchers, etc.), but then, nobody is. His performance brings the story to life and makes for a fun listen on road trips.

Any additional comments?

This series is, to me, one book too long. The last book and this one should have been condensed into a single book, and then the series would have been just right. These last two books just seemed to drag compared with the others, but overall, the series is fun, imaginative, and very much worth listening to / reading, especially if you have children between 8 and 15 to enjoy it with. I'm in my 40's, and I still enjoyed it a lot. Each book has its own story that keeps them from being "more of the same" (for the most part), but there is a deeper story line running throughout the series that makes you want to keep going with the next book. I said above that the series is one book too long because the last two books depart from this pattern, and they both really only deal with the overall series story line, so they rely heavily on each other to tell the story. The others can be enjoyed by themselves.The series-long story is full of twists and turns, taking the listener on a ride that is fun and sometimes surprising. Overall, I recommend it to lovers of clean, entertaining stories that encourage and expand the imagination.

Continuing the Magic!

The author sustains the suspense and charm through this ninth and final book in the series. What a delightful escape!

Favorite book ever!!!

This was my favorite book of the series. But there is something I don’t like about Sabrina: she treated her sister like a baby! It doesn’t take away the help & love Sabrina gave to Daphine. I love this book because it reminds me of my sisters and I.

Great series for the family...

If you could sum up The Council of Mirrors in three words, what would they be?

The sisters Grimm thought they were abandoned, maybe even orphaned... little did they know!

Any additional comments?

This is a series for the whole family. The second grader, the fifth grader, and the mom were all chomping at the bit for this 9th book in the series... we were not disappointed!

The Sister's Grimm has been a true treasure.

Would you consider the audio edition of The Council of Mirrors to be better than the print version?

I have not read the print version yet, however, the audio edition was so good that I plan to purchase the entire series in print and keep them as a family classic to share for generations to come.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Council of Mirrors?

That is difficult to answer without giving things away, so I will try to keep it vague for those who have not read it yet. It was Sabrina's secret weapon that ended up saving the day.

What about L. J. Ganser’s performance did you like?

His unique inflections for each voice make you forget that there is only one person doing the voices.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Although this is a light story, where one wouldn't expect to be overly moved, there are plenty of heart warming moments and surprisingly a few that make you a bit a sad.

Any additional comments?

If you are looking for fun new adventure series to read with your children and even young teenagers I highly recommend this series. My child and I loved reading these, discussing the characters, the direction of the stories and debating which ones we liked best.

The mystery and story of it all

I LOVED everything it’s so good AND I wish there was a 10th book (It’s actually annoying that I finished the series)
