AN ANCIENT RIVALRY REAWAKENS.

Everything I’d known about the world was a lie.

On my thirteenth birthday, I, Alcatraz Smedry (yes, I got named after a prison, don’t ask), received my inheritance: a bag of sand. And then I accidentally destroyed my foster parents’ kitchen. It’s not my fault, things just break around me, I swear! I thought the sand was a joke until evil Librarians came to steal it. You’re probably thinking, “Librarians are nice people who recommend good books,” but that’s just what they want you to think! It turns out they’re actually a secret cabal keeping the truth from you—a hidden world filled with magical eyeglasses, talking dinosaurs, and knights with crystal swords! Or so my Grandpa Smedry claimed when he suddenly showed up to rescue me. So now I have to go with him to invade the local library and get that sand back, before it’s used to conquer the world. And Grandpa says how I keep breaking things is actually an amazing talent. There’s no way that can all be true, right? Will I ever make it back home alive?

Ce que les critiques en disent

“Like Lemony Snicket and superhero comics rolled into one (and then revved up on steroids).” (Publishers Weekly)

“An excellent choice to read aloud to the whole family. Funny, exciting, and briskly paced.”(NPR)

I really wasn’t sure at first; it took me awhile to get into this. Great for a younger reader, think 10 year olds. Interestingly meta, some cute nods to the trouble making fantasy readers. An adventurous and gentle read. Hoping for more adventures!

This book is such a fun lighthearted listen that had me giggling all day! The use of irony, foreshadowing, and breaking the fourth wall is done so well as the narrator makes side comments from the plot. Feels like lion king 1/2. Character development is incredible in such a short time and I can’t wait to start the second book.

An adventurous, humorous, and adorable coming of age story.

My three daughters have collectively listened to this performance over 20 times. They love the story, they get more and more out of the humour every time they listen. I like the over all theme of family being who you love. Extra points from me (the parent) for keeping the teenage romance clean and secondary, and it doesn’t make me want to barf! The whole series is on repeat in our house.

A favourite in our family
