Resumen del Editor

Laughter Academy is in trouble.

The student witches are growing increasingly reckless, preying on the mundanes below the mountains as their tutors plot and scheme to take advantage of the chaos. And no one seems to know why.

Emily is in no condition to intervene. But she cannot refuse. Heading to Laughter, Emily finds herself dragged into a world of schoolgirl games, staffroom politics, and a deadly plot aimed at the heart of the Allied Lands themselves....

the new reader makes Emily sound like her impersonation of male voices sometimes. There

Another strong installment...absorbing

I'm a big fan of the series. I thought this one was well-plotted. The author's misery at his own school is deeply reflected in this one (again). It is hard for me to accept that such utter cruelty and bad behavior is the norm. At any rate, some of it is well-explained with surprising plot twists. During the course of this installment, I could easily list the Major Flaws in Emily...hard to like her, really, and the change in narrator didn't help. She sounded about 45 years in voice, and not the Emily I know, though the narrator was fine in her own way...just that a change is hard to take in this case. I also see Emily with a big crease between her brows because she is so often scowling or looking sour. Yet...I do really enjoy falling into the series and it is quite absorbing. I've read comments about this volume being sexist against men, but most of the females in the book are portrayed as deeply flawed, so I don't buy that at all.

really makes you think

author gets knees deep into morals and historical lessons, really makes you think ... fourteen, fifteen

Fantastic

Emily kicks butt in this book. We see her like never before finally growing into her power. A wonderful read that will keep your attention the whole way through.

Ended on a Chrishanger. :(

Great book, continues the story well and we get to learn all about Laughter school. Ended on a total cliffhanger.

Quite confused.

Why oh why does he keep making Emily a stupid helpless little girl? I can't understand it and I hope it changes.

Malevolent

Out of the 22 books in this series this has to be the darkest. While no spoilers the problems our Heroine face in this one are darker than any others on the unnamed world. very creepy

wow. out of the gate.

I realize after about 20 books, so stories might start to get stale. And I realize that some of the books seemed to go nowhere, but this one grabbed me by the honches and didn't let go. I love the story and the ending was a total surprise. I realize I am not a fan of the performer, but still a great read.

ehhh

there is enough LGBT content in this one to meet all the modern political requirements, but the plot is weak the performance is mediocre and it was overall a disappointment.

Story is good, but...

The problem with changing a narrator in a 20 book series is that you effectively swap out all the characters. It's like swapping out the entire cast of Friends in the last season. They might be good, but it's not the same anymore.

I am sure Maarleveld is a good narrator, I am just struggling too much recognising the characters. They sound too much like each other so I keep getting confused regarding which character is "talking".

I also feel this story is not as good as the previous, but I am unsure if I am being coloured by the narrator or if its the writing. Either way this feels like it's not up to par with the rest of the books.

Still worth a listen if you have been following the series, but unlike the books up until Oathkeeper I did not struggle to put the book down
