What the critics say

"Here's a perfect choice for the Harry Potter/Philip Pullman crowd." (AudioFile)
"Gerard Doyle's rich voice and English accent suit the story perfectly. His excellent expression and conviction draw listeners into the tale and help them follow the complex plot, giving each character's voice just enough distinction." (School Library Journal)

Delightful

Diana Wynne Jones is a gifted storyteller. Her works illustrate the marvel of alternative universes using comfortable characters and pleasant surroundings. Hers are the worlds I wish to be emulated in the 5th dimension.
