* "Reeve's [Mortal Engines] remains a landmark of visionary imagination." -- School Library Journal, starred review"A breathtaking work of imagination, Hester Shaw is a heroine for the ages.

Philip Reeve's epic city-eat-city adventure series continues with Mortal Engines Book 2: Predator's Gold.

With the great Traction City of London completely destroyed, Tom Natsworthy and Hester Shaw travel across the world, trading with other airships and adventuring on the exciting and exotic routes of the Bird Roads. When their little scrapyard aircraft is pursued by rocket-firing gunships, the ice city of Anchorage offers them sanctuary. But as Tom and Hester soon discover, it is no safe refuge. Devastated by plague in recent years and haunted by ghosts and madness, Anchorage is headed for the Dead Continent of North America. It's a perilous course, one that will take them directly into a firestorm of danger and conflict.Mortal Engines is now a major motion picture produced by Peter Jackson!

It makes me want to read the next one!

Compelling story - well read & written. Interesting characters I liked & empathised with throughout

a much better book than the first.

I was ready to give up on audio books after the first book, but I had extra credits left. Compared to the first book, this time the stakes are lower, the style better, the characters more likable. The author has convinced me to hang on to his mortal engines and I'll pick up the next in the series with my next credit.

Really enjoyable series so far

I've enjoyed the first 2 books of the series, but I believe the first had better world building, where the 2nd book seemed to expand on the characters a bit more.

Predators Gold

I have always like books that makes you think of what could be, living in a world different from our own.

Wonderful world

This author really has created a new world in which I have emerged myself in. Not only is the story believable but it gives me goose bumps.

The story you must find out what's next continue s

I just loved the first book. it was such a unique and compelling story I listened to the first one so fast, this one is just about as great and a great second story in a book leaving you interested in how it ends, so we got the last book and I will start it right now as I just finished this one!

enjoyable book

I was entertained for hours and looked forward to leaving my dry life for outlandish adventures with my friends in this great book that was read by a hoot of a guy

loved it

what a great follow-up to the first book. excellent new exciting characters and places. Just as good as the first book

Thank you!

imaginative. so well written, that it allows our imagination to give illustrated life to the characters. it is very easy to lose yourself in this series.

the best way to listen to any story is with an open mind. do not try to out maneuver or out wit the story. this is a series that requires an open mind.

my friend argued that "Christopher Columbo" did not discover America in 1924. there's your sign. have a great listen. audible up!

it was really good

I really liked the book. it ready worried me when. freya kissed Tom,and hester left.
