About this listen

A jobless jester and a misguided magpie venture into a land where technology is booming—but trouble is brewing.

Dame Elsebet de Whellen has ruled her mildly magical, high-tech country for 50 prosperous years. Now it's facing a crisis three generations in the making, and the bold steps she's taken to save it have gone disastrously off the rails.

She needs a hero who can calm her mind, cast a spell, and find a missing sorcerer. Instead she gets Malfred Murd, former royal fool, booted from his job and now scrounging a living around the corners of the Kingdom. What starts as Fred's quick attempt to con Dame Elsebet escalates until he—and his self-appointed magpie advisor Corvinalias—are hopelessly entangled in a desperate mission that might cost a fool his life and a people their future.

Hear a cast of memorable, vividly drawn characters, exciting action sequences, and interpersonal drama. Listen now and escape into a world of magic, miscommunication, monsters, and magpies.

Interesting

This fantasy novel was interesting. The magpie can talk to humans. The main hero waking to everyone, scamming for money. In the end the tables are turned on him. Ms.Sandor delivered the audio very well. She was able in inflect accents and different sounds for the creatures and characters.

Dark, Quirky, and Humorous

If you read the headline, you know exactly what you're in for. This is not to say that the entire story was dark. Not at all. However, I would not recommend it for young children, even if talking Magpies are tempting. I should probably mention that although I would not recommend Fool's Proof to children, my 17-year-old seemed to be enjoying it. Although since he has the same sense of humor as I do, I was not surprised. I tend to have a quirky, off-the-wall sense of humor at times, so this was right up my alley.

I've read the book previously, so the story itself is not new to me, but I wanted to get a feel for the nuances and inflections that can only be caught from listening to the audiobook. I hadn't realized at first that the author herself was narrating but after seeing her do live readings on social media before, I am not surprised she was able to do this herself. Nothing better than hearing the story from the author themselves.

I think I was having technical difficulties at one point, but overall it was quite enjoyable and I'm hoping the author decides to release the other books in the series on audio as well.
