Resumen del Editor

Even though she's on vacation at the beach, young wizard Nita is still on active duty, available to assist any other wizard in distress. So when Nita meets the wizard S'reee, she is bound to promise help. Nita is needed to face the Lone Power, who is threatening life in the oceans. But although S'reee is a wizard, she is also a whale. Nita will need to shapeshift into a sea creature to join her. And when Nita learns that the final confrontation will take place 16,000 feet below the surface of the Atlantic Ocean, she begins to get uneasy. Explaining day-long absences to her curious parents will be tricky, too.

Diane Duane's Young Wizard books are marvelous combinations of fantasy, fast-paced adventure, and realism. As Nita crafts spells and prepares for what could be the ultimate sacrifice, you'll be pulled into her wondrous world. Christina Moore's vivid narration brings out the suspense and magic of each moment.

You can listen to Diane Duane's entire Young Wizard series.

My first.

This book was my introduction to this series, way back in the early 200s, and was my favorite in the series until I read Games Wizards Play. It’s still a very close second. As always, Christina Moore’s voice is a delight to listen to.

i got hooked

Would you consider the audio edition of Deep Wizardry to be better than the print version?

I never read the paper books so I truly have no comparison

What other book might you compare Deep Wizardry to and why?

I might compare it to the harry potter set

Which character – as performed by Christina Moore – was your favorite?

I can't decide who is my favorite nita or kit I love them both equally

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The part where the shark took nita's place in the song was the kindest and sweetest thing that could have happened

A must read

Fantastic story telling that anyone can enjoy. 2 young wizards embark on a journey to reenact an ancient whale song to save the oceans and prevent another Atlantis like disaster. Are these noobs ready to begin?

The Friendship

excellent story on maturity and friendship. Good versus Evil and how to defeat the evil.

Good narration!

Distinct voices --always knew who was speaking. all the Young Wizard books are good, but this is one of the best.

Favorite

One of my all time favorite books. Was read really well. The author and narrator did a great job.

Concern

I have been a Diane Duane Fan for a long time and it pains me to write a review of concern. This book, while a great story, has a thread of Suicide running through it. Although one could say that it is has a morale basis in self sacrifice, I would say that with suicide so prevalent in today's youth, themes of this nature may not be the most appropriate. Once angain let me stress thati have been a Diane Duane fan and remain so to this day. I love her work, but this one gets a "PG" rating from me.

Really Fun!

Any additional comments?

A fantastic novel continuing the series. Christina Moore performs these books so well and keeps you captivated throughout. My kids (8&9) loved listening to this novel and are really looking forward to the next one.

Even better for us kids at heart

I love this book. I admit, I am a die hard Harry Potter fan, but this book series really grabed me. I find miself buying the next volum before my next Renewal date hits...Great for kids (older than 8) and even better for us "kids at heart". Ill buy them all

Already better than the first book!

Young Wizards is a very underrated series that needed to be recognized and loved. I'll admit that the first book was good, but it didn't really wow me as much as I hoped. Thankfully, I pressed on and loved the following books afterward. Rather than going to a dark and alternative New York dimension where everything is trying to kill you, we follow our heroes into the ocean where whales are wizards and there is a giant, ancient shark, while neither is kind nor evil, is very terrifying with his pitiless wisdom (and he has the teeth to back it all up). While intended for children, Diane Duane doesn't shy away from dark things such as the fear of death and honoring your promise, love, and sacrifice.
