De: Michael Young

Narrado por: Kevin Perkins

Grimblewaith has risen through the ranks of the Beandom Highway Patrol, and when his boss asks to see him, he hopes it’s for a promotion. Instead, he is tasked with saving an old friend, now forced to lead the notorious Mafaea family. But to infiltrate the Mafaea ranks and rescue his friend, he must become faekind, a feat that only a phoenix could help him accomplish. When the phoenix proves a finicky negotiator, Grimblewaith must search the Beandom for something to bring the phoenix to his side. With others vying for the phoenix’s powers, Grimblewaith must prove that he’s no ordinary whatsit if he hopes to survive to save his friend.

The Height of Absurdity

I really enjoyed this story. I found this story both silly and amusing. My funny bone was tickled by the idea that Grimblewaith needed to negotiate with a phoenix in order to become faekind, so that he could save his friend. I was entertained by the ridiculous songs and rhyming phrases which made me laugh out loud. I thought Kevin Perkins' narration was superb, and his performance added to my enjoyment of the story. I was given a copy of the audiobook. I volunteered, without financial gain, to post this review which reflected my honest opinions regarding this audiobook.

Another great story from the Beandom.

I absolutely love this series of books. I love Michael Young style of writing, and the way Kecin Perkins brings them to life!!! Can't wait for book 6!

Fun!

What a fun story! This book reminded me a bit of The Phantom Tollbooth with all of the word plays, and it had a lot of clean, kid friendly fantasy too! I really enjoyed listening to it! The narrator did a great job with his portrayal of all the different characters!
