Publisher's summary

Rich in suspense and brimming with adventure, the New York Times best-selling Underland Chronicles unfold the fate of the Underland and the great warrior, Gregor. Suzanne Collins is also the author of the best-selling Hunger Games trilogy.

Gregor is summoned back to the Underland by the terms of a second prophecy. Spies have reported the sighting of a Rat King, a character who has been legendary since the Middle Ages. Recognizable by its tremendous size and snow-white coat, the Rat King is destined to bring a World War to the Underland. Gregor eventually comes face to face with the Rat King, and to his surprise, he finds he is unable to kill this creature. His heart tells him he's making the right decision. Will it be a decision he lives to regret?

Wonderful adventure story

Suzanne Collins shines as a talented weaver of story line and characters wandering through this adventure. I would recommend it to anyone teen to adult.

The thing that stood out most was the humor and the lovable characters.

To be honest there was not a single thing I thought was bad. It’s a funny,
Witty and exiting.

Fantastic Book and Series

What made the experience of listening to Gregor and the Prophecy of Bane the most enjoyable?

I have enjoyed both the first and second Gregor the Overlander book with my 8.5 y/o daughter. The story is something both adults and children will enjoy. The story is captivating and moves quickly and leaves you curious for the next chapter and then book. Paul Boehmer does a fantastic job narrating.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Gregor and the Prophecy of Bane?

Well if I told you it would ruin the book for you.....

What does Paul Boehmer bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Awesome job ++++++

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

great book

my children and I love the story. I found the time between the end of a chapter and when the title of the next chapter is said was distractingly short and out of rhythm with the rest of the narration. Is that a technical issue??
