Junior's Tale

An Un-Familiar Story

De: Billy Swan

Narrado por: Molly Gilman

Junior was just a pig. At least, that’s what everyone thought. Until the night he followed the moonlight into the forest… and woke up. In a world where magic is outlawed, the gods have been rewritten, and even memories can be dangerous, Junior finds himself on the run—not just from the Church that hunts him, but from the idea that he was ever just someone’s pet. Once the familiar of a young wizard, Junior is now something more: a threadborn, a living echo of forgotten magic. Together with a brave girl named Anna, a bodyguard with secrets, and a not-quite-human assassin named Winnie, Junior journeys toward the truth of his past and the power he may hold—if he can survive long enough to claim it. But some stories weren’t meant to be rewritten. And some choices can echo forever. A heartful, high-fantasy fable for fans of Watership Down, The Iron Giant, and The Golden Compass.

Witty and Creative

This book was very witty. I listened to it twice and some of the jokes were even better when you realize what is coming. It has an original concept and I'm excited to see more of this magical world that is being built.

The narration was excellent. The voices and accents unique. The ending was a little rushed and I'd like to see the characters and world more fleshed out. But the ending seems to elude to a sequel on the way.

Overall this is a good start for a new author.
