Marvelwood Magicians, the

This is a Netgalley review.

When I saw there was a new book from Diane Zahler available I had to jump atthr opportunity to read it, or in this specific case, listen to the audio book. I thoroughly enjoyed this narrator, Sarah Zimmerman, and the occasional background circus music that really added to the atmosphere. This was five hours that I split into about three readings and enjoyed thoroughly as the action was fast paced and the characters were just complex enough. My girls overheard bits of the story as I was listening and have asked to be able to get it for us to listen to again and again. As I know how they feel about “Sleeping Beauty's Daughters,” I am not surprised. This was quite the cast of characters and I think many good discussions and parallels to life can be found in this middle grade fantasy.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the access of an audio book recordingmfor review.
