À propos de cet audio
The magic was failing. The monsters were coming. Sunder was desperate for a hero, and Leopold Berry was certain he’d been chosen to save it.
He was wrong.
After flunking his channeler test in spectacular fashion and getting kicked out of Sunder in record time, Leopold swore he was done with magic for good—until a trail of clues from his late mother dragged him back in, then led him to a mysterious ring that might just be the most powerful object in magical history. If only he can figure out how the damn thing works.
Now the walls are closing in.
Famous in Sunder for all the wrong reasons, Leopold is being stalked by paparazzi, threatened by government agents determined to get their hands on the ring, and hunted by terrifying creatures hungry for its power. His only hope is to learn to wield the ring before someone kills him for it and then use it to uncover his family’s buried connection to Sunder before the trail goes cold—and the magical world collapses around him.
Because the magic is still failing. The monsters are everywhere. And Sunder still needs a hero.
With loyal friends Emmet and Isabel at his side, Leopold must decide who he can trust in a city built on illusion—and whether the kid who was never chosen is willing to risk everything for the world that didn’t want him.
Welcome back to Sunderworld.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"Leopold, despite his beliefs to the contrary, is a truly extraordinary hero, and this book brings his epic journey to a perfect conclusion. Nobody builds worlds like Ransom Riggs—this story is so rich and completely imagined that you can feel and hear the magic all around you. You'll love Sunderworld, and you'll love its wondrous cast of characters.”—John Green, bestselling author of The Fault in Our Stars and Everything Is Tuberculosis
