About this listen

Single mom Cedar McLeod leads an ordinary but lonely life, balancing the demands of her career and her six-year-old daughter, Eden. One day, a fight between the two leads to the stunning discovery that Eden can open portals to anywhere she imagines. But before they can learn more about Eden’s extraordinary gift, the young girl mysteriously disappears. Desperate to find answers and her daughter, Cedar seeks out Eden’s father, who left before Eden was born. What she discovers challenges everything she’s ever known about the world around her: Magic is real - and mythical beings from an ancient world will stop at nothing to possess Eden’s abilities. Now, Cedar may have to put her faith in all of them if she hopes to save her daughter’s life.

The first in the Thin Veil series, Through the Door is a pulse-pounding adventure that takes listeners across the globe and into the ancient realm of Celtic myths, where the stakes are high and only the deepest love will survive.

Read it in Print.

So I read this story in Print form first. I am really glad I did. The story was pretty cool. While reading it I felt like I cared for the characters. The story moved well only slowing in a few places. The big problem with the audio edition is with the performance of the narrator. Cedar and her mum was made to sound like a whiny, weeping, constantly on the verge of hysterical basket case. You know I get it, the woman's child was missing, but it was just over the top and extremely distracting. There is also a lack of regional accents. Anyway I hope people will check out this book. Whichever form you choose to enjoy this book in The story is really good.

Just misses on a few points

In a teen book, I don't like promoting sex before marriage. The main characters could easily have been married.

The reader was good and I didn't have any problem with her voicing of male characters. Some female readers sound a little too much like pimply teens instead of the big brawny male characters they are sometimes meant to portray. Really 4 1/2 stars. I couldn't give her 5 in comparison to readers like Bronson Pinchot or Davina Porter.

I liked the main character but other characters were not allowed to be fleshed out. Some of them seemed a little hollow.

The book breaks down and ends a little too quickly and easily -- with a whimper instead of a bang.

Without giving anything away, I wanted to see a larger part of story take place in another setting. I understand perhaps why that did not happen but that contributed to the lack of drama at the end. In fact, I had the feeling that the climax was precipitated by one of John W. Campbell's pocket franistans. Maybe I missed something.

So much love towards this book.

I'm starting the next book asap, I listened to its entirety when I had gotten it only about 12 hours ago. I hope the next one is just as good, even better.

Too many lies

I'm not sure what went wrong with this story. It might have been the deliberate lies or deceit among the main characters. It might have been the years of totally unnecessary secrets between mother and child. What ever is was, I felt absolutely nothing for any of the folks involved in the book. Even the ending left me cold. Needless to say, I have no desire to read another book in this series.

An enjoyable take on traditional Irish folklore

This story focuses on Cedar and her daughter, Eden. It's an interesting take on some traditional Irish lore, and manages to weave traditional characters with modern day situations in an enjoyable story.
