About this listen
"Daniel Henning is a great narrator for this quirky and theatrical audiobook.... Henning revels in a cornucopia of characters, diving into nuanced voices and colorful moments with accents and growls, tone shifts and whispers.... This is definitely a title for those who enjoy fantasy stories replete with gnomes and witches and all in between." (AudioFile Magazine)
Lambda Literary Award-winning author TJ Klune's breakout contemporary fantasy
Linus Baker is a by-the-book case worker in the Department in Charge of Magical Youth. He's tasked with determining whether six dangerous magical children are likely to bring about the end of the world.
Arthur Parnassus is the master of the orphanage. He would do anything to keep the children safe, even if it means the world will burn. And his secrets will come to light.
The House in the Cerulean Sea is an enchanting love story, masterfully told, about the profound experience of discovering an unlikely family in an unexpected place - and realizing that family is yours.

Wonderful story
I really enjoyed this book. The characters were wonderful, the story was inspiring and well-written and the narration was great. I can’t wait to read (or listen) to more by this author.

Sweet and Just Right
This book was a little to junior for my tastes but it is a delightful story and the characters are charming (my garden wishes I had a Thalia in my life for advice!). This should be on school reading lists for elementary schools!

Super feel good
Really enjoyed This story. It wasn’t mind blowing but it was just very feel good and pleasant to listen too. Short sweet very character driven. If you like found family this is a book for you. The voice suited the main character a lot tho sometimes I didn’t enjoy the kid voices as much. Overall worth a listen.

Wow!
What can I say about this book? Wow. Just amazing! I went in thinking that I doubt I would like this as much as everyone is saying so. Boy was I wrong. Such a wholesome story which had me laughing and crying so much.

Thoroughly Enjoyed this book 😊
Absolutely loved the narration. When I can tell who's talking by the voice alone it's the sign of an excellent narrator. Loved the story and character development, just made my heart happy. I can't wait to re-listen soon.
Every audio book of TJ's seems to have excellent performances!

This book will become your friend
the narrator brings you right into the book. as you listen to the book it makes you feel a part of the story. this book is so well written that you experience everything the people in this book are experiencing. This is truely a book to snuggle with a hot chocolate and escape the world or to listen to during an 11 hour drive. the author was so amazing their imagination is something i wish i had just a tiny piece of. the book has adventure, love, so many welcoming surprises and twists. it is a very witty book to which made me smile at times even laugh. the only con of this book is when i finished it i felt like i lost a really good friend the book was that good. (this book is a special experience and when it is over you will long to have it back).

If i could give it more stars I would!
Amazing. Might be my new favourite book ever. The story is beautifully constructed and the narrator is awesome at creating all the characters.
