Critic reviews

“With comical insight into human nature and just enough substance to make it all matter, the plot offers up plenty of action, gadgetry, metafictional humor, grudgingly dispensed hints of the librarians’ endgame, and counterintuitive Smedry Talents to keep the old fans and new readers alike turning pages.”—Horn Book

Great story of a horrible person.

Alcatraz is a deceitful, selfish and dishonest person, but this is a fun way to learn his autobiographical story.

Pretty awesome!

Why is this not a cartoon series?
This is great to listen to whether or not you have kids.

good addition to series

Any additional comments?

Another good addition to the series. Now that I have figured out the series I am enjoying it more. The humor and plot are sometimes more for younger readers, a little too silly or redundant, but to others that is probably a positive. Very clever. If you liked the first ones you will like this one. Overall I will definitely continue with the series, and am curious to see how he fulfills the opening statement in the first book.

Funny, action packed, and a real page turner

I loved this book(and the ones before it), my favorite part was the after book special, and the narrator's voice seems to fit the character of Alcatraz and his friends.

So good

Every entry continues to be excellent both in writing & performance. Highly recommend for any fant--er--biography lovers out there. 🍻

Love!!!

Love these books! Will read again!! Brandon just being his goofy fun self. Would recommend to anyone who loves a great story with an added measure of fun.

Hilarious

It’s nice that this book is finally set in the three kingdoms and the narrator is amazing and as always Brandon Sanderson is amazing

Humorous

I love the humor in this book and the friendship they all have with each other.

As Funny As Before!!!!

I do like that there isn't much repeat of environment in this series, this one was finally based in the one of the 3 kingdoms and the way of life there is very interesting.

Brandon Sanderson shows how funny he can get in this series, and I do love those breaks between each chapter, they are really funny. and its ending is always funny.

You get to see how special and strong Alcatraz is in this book. and also what authority he has in these kingdoms.

Really enjoyed and laughed a lot.. beware food and drinks while listening to it.

Excited to listen to the next Alkatraz!

From my 8 year old son. .."It had lots of unexpected events. Try not to yell in surprise! I also really like the narrator."
