Reseñas de la Crítica

"Terrifically entertaining....Fans of the first book will be delighted with this sequel to Septimus's story." (Voice of Youth Advocates)

Wrong Narrator

Any additional comments?

I kept thinking I was listening to William Joyce's"The Guardians" series - Gerard Doyle uses exactly the same style . Allan Corduner did such a good job on Magyk - I was excited to listen to him again. Why the change of narrator? Wrong choice.

Wonderful story

This is the second book in the series and it was just as good as the first. The length was also perfect for long drives.

I enjoyed it!!!

I loved the second audiobook as much as the first and am excited to began the third book in the Septimus Heap series.

Septimus Heap book two

I'm enjoying this series very much and I'm looking forward to reading the next story in the series.

I very much enjoyed this I am a big magic geek

loved it the dragon was a nice I have always like the idea of riding a dragon

Fun Listen

I really enjoyed the first book of the series, and it threw me for a loop when they switched narrators. I really enjoy Gerard Doyle, however, I had just finished the Eragon books he narrated and it was a little strange hearing the characters' voices from another series in this one. I would have given this book 4.5 stars because of that. However, the story itself, is fun and entertaining. And as always, I was looking for a book with no vulgarity or inappropriate language for very young children, yet interesting enough for me. This series definitely fulfill those requirements.

Second volume, almost as good

The series was overshadowed in its first release years by that other wizard. I read it then. Listening to it now. Both times I felt rewarded with a good story. The components of the story are common, and the list is long. I felt they were freshly enough packaged for young readers, although the jealous wayward brother and kind-but-clueless parents were a little over the top.
As the series proceeds, the storyline doesn't presume the audience is getting older.
As a contrastive story with a slightly older female protagonist, try Patricia Wrede's "Thirteenth Child", the girl born after the seventh son of the seventh son.

loved it every chance I had I would step back into the story my favorite part is when they find the dragon asleep and the aunty

The Plot Thickens

What made the experience of listening to Flyte the most enjoyable?

The most enjoyable part of listening to this book was the continuing stories and adventures that Gena and Septimus get into from the first book, but it seems that they keep learning more and more about the town they are in and the people around them.

What did you like best about this story?

Some parts seemed drawn out and it took me a minute to get into them but then other parts kept me interested and ready to hear what happened next. Parts that caught my attention dealed with the Heap boys and finding their grandfather in the woods, then all the additional secret passages and rooms in the catsle and under the castle. Just trying to figure out what will happen to Gena, and Septimus as they grow is something that is interested.

Have you listened to any of Gerard Doyle’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

The only other book I have listened to is the first book within this series and to me they are the same.

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

There were several parts of the book that moved me but the end where Gena found the Queens room and her father was introduced to her those two parts stand out to me from this book. They seem like two of the turning points in the book and within Gena's life.

Clean and fun!

I love this series! These are the kind of books that I wish I had libraries full of. I am grateful for good authors that have standards and that tell a good story.
