Publisher's summary

Milos Craft is a kid with problems. They’re not your average, everyday problems. He couldn’t care less who posted what on Snapchat. The thing keeping him up at night is his dead grandfather’s magic journal.

He discovered the journal in Grandpa Harbart’s dusty, cobweb-covered basement. The pages reveal what they want as if they have a mind of their own.

Passages appear and disappear at the snap of a finger. But it’s not just how they appear—it’s what they tell Milos: secrets buried in his town of Haven Hill’s past, magic spells, and a warning about a rival wizard trying to resurrect a powerful cosmic creature his grandfather failed to stop.

Milos, along with his friends Derby—who is skeptical of magic—and Nathy—who has magical secrets of her own—must keep the dark wizard from carrying out his plans. That is if the magic journal he’s come to rely on as much as his grandfather is telling him the truth.

I can relate to Milos

I think the author does a great job of setting the scene and developing the characters throughout the book. Milos believes just like his grandpa did even if his own mom was skeptical. From there a truly fun adventure awaits and I really liked it!

Twists and turns

This is a really fun and fast-paced audiobook. Beautifully narrated.
It's right in line with the stuff I've loved since I was a kid. Secret worlds. Interesting new people. Unexpected and complicated problems. I dug it.

Captivating Magical Adventure

I recently listened to Strange Tales: Milos Craft and the Man in the Golden Mask and loved it! Milos discovers his late grandfather's magical journal, which reveals secrets and spells to stop a dark wizard. The journal's mysterious passages and the dynamic between Milos and his friends kept me hooked. The narration was excellent, making the eerie, magical atmosphere of Haven Hill come alive. If you enjoy magic and adventure, this audiobook is a must-listen!

I wasn't expecting such an advanced, creative book

I love the way this starts out with such relatable characters.
The family features a concerned mom who doesn't believe in the supernatural, and a kid who has to hide his knowledge of the supernatural from his mom to keep peace.
But peace is not in his future.
Great fantasy and adventure.
Also, the deep, mature-voiced narrator is very professional.
