Resumen del Editor

Raised in a family of circus performers, Helena's always dreamed of leading a more ordinary life. But when haunting music draws her into a strange and magical realm, one where anything can happen, her real life is stolen by a runaway from the other side. Helena must rescue the realm from chaos in order to win back her own not-so-ordinary life.

MirrorMask is a breathtaking film written by best-selling author Neil Gaiman and brought to life through the vision of acclaimed artist and director Dave McKean. This original audio novella is Helena's tale in her own voice, a stunning and magical journey.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A delightful, if at times spooky, family audiobook." (Booklist)

Great Accompaniment to the Movie

Nice it was narrated by Helena herself. And the story is overall good. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is the lack of details in a lot of places. There was a lot of description lacking and I honestly only knew what things or characters looked like because I saw the movie. Anyone experiencing this alone will have to imagine quite a bit.

fun book

Any additional comments?

this is a good book but if you like the story then you should see the movie its just as good as the book. it is the book as the book is not that long

loved, but too short!

i loved the fact they got the main character to read it. needed more length!

Movie is longer then the book.

Can’t believe I’m going to say this but the movie has more in it then the book. But I still enjoyed the book.

Childhood Relived

The movie made from this book was a favorite of mine as a child. It was one of the biggest inspirations for me going into the art field. Now, older, listening to the audiobook is like taking a stroll down memory lane.

The voice actor reading this is a perfect fit for Helena’s attitude and snarky comebacks and is still able to convey Valentine’s characteristic charm. I’d recommend this to literally any and everyone looking for a something to listen to or as a bedtime story for children.

Thank you for giving me back a piece of me I hadn’t realized I’d lost!

Fun Quirky total worth it read!

I seriously loved this book. It was fun and quirky in a totally Neil Gaiman style. I wish it were longer though, since I enjoyed it so much. I would recommend this as a fast fun listen.

Great book by one of the greatest authors of our time.

Love the story + narrator is Helena in film! 😍

Title says it all! Best audiobook ever. 💖 I wish there were more books read by Miss Leonidas! Her reading was absolutely phenomenal!

EXELENT

MirrorMask was an extrordanary book. Even if it was a little short, it had me listening the whole time with eger anticipation. When the book ended, which I didn't want it to, I was very satisfied.

Delightful fantasy

Neil Gaiman is so good I decided to follow him on Twitter, and found myself irritated that he was tweeting instead of writing another book for me to read. He seems to often meet the standard definition of a fantasy story: his characters leave the 'real' world for a different one, and then return after having resolving a personal conflict. This one involves parents and children and otherworld parents and children. I don't want to spoil the story--just enjoy!
