An original full-cast audio adaptation of the New York Times best-selling graphic novel sensation from Noelle Stevenson, based on her beloved and critically acclaimed web comic.

Nemeses! Dragons! Science! Symbolism! All these and more await in this brilliantly subversive, sharply irreverent epic from Noelle Stevenson. Adapted for audio, this brilliant production is perfect for the legions of fans of the web comic and graphic novel and is sure to win Noelle many new ones. This full-cast audio edition is performed by Rebecca Soler, Jonathan Davis, Marc Thompson, January LaVoy, Natalie Gold, Peter Bradbury, and David Pittu and features original music by Loren Toolajian, with sound effects throughout.

Nimona is an impulsive young shape-shifter with a knack for villainy. Lord Ballister Blackheart is a villain with a vendetta. As sidekick and supervillain, Nimona and Lord Blackheart are about to wreak some serious havoc. Their mission: prove to the kingdom that Sir Ambrosius Goldenloin and his buddies at the Institution of Law Enforcement and Heroics aren't the heroes everyone thinks they are. But as small acts of mischief escalate into a vicious battle, Lord Blackheart realizes that Nimona's powers are as murky and mysterious as her past. And her unpredictable wild side might be more dangerous than he is willing to admit.

A wonderful performance and a fun story

The actors brought this story to life. I didn’t know anything about this story before I started listening and I really enjoyed it. If there were more in this series performed by this cast, I’d immediately purchase them.

Great if you're into fantasy; meh if you're not

I got this because it was one of the free monthly selections. I'm glad I didn't pay for it. I'm not a big YA fan or a big fantasy fan, and it's probably best to be both in order to thoroughly enjoy this title. The story involves some nice changing of roles. Outside of that, I can't think of too much that will make me remember this story in about a month. But, if you like YA or fantasy books, you might.

Cute tale

Interesting short story. Decent performances. pdd in that it mixes old and new technologies/settings. Some of the action is heard not described like being blindfolded at a play. worth it for a daily deal.

Exciting story

Exciting story, and presentation for the audio book was really good as well. Quick and easy listen and while the story is not too outlandish - it's good and fun. It reminded me a tiny bit of watching Adventure Time.. Has that feel a bit.

it was an awesome book!! I 💜 this book!

I loved it!!!!!!!! it was an awesome book! it was so cool! and so amazing!

super cute story

heartwarming story of friendship, good and evil. great cast! great story. the performance was excellent!

Bravo.

The narration choices were amazing. I was quite surprised to see that a comic book had an audiobook, but once I got to listen I was blown away. Highly recommend.

a bit of a hoot

the genre is quite far afield from this listener’s typical fare. it was a fun, whimsical break. pulled the trigger on this one due to reviews & “daily deal” pricing. otherwise would not have ventured. glad to have done so.

Witty and intriguing story

I liked reading Nimona a lot. The story is really humorous and witty and had me very immersed. I liked the twist to normal villain stories by making the villain the ultimate hero despite having him do villainy stuff.

It's a book I recommend to anyone. A fantastic read.

Wonderful

Great full cast production. Fun to listen to work the family. Perfect for a trip.
