Now well into her apprenticeship with magician Emery Thane, 20-year-old Ceony Twill is continuing to discover the joy of paper magic. She adores bringing her spells to life in surprising ways, from learning the power of distortion to creating a beloved paper dog. And she secretly hopes that the romance she foresaw blossoming between her and the peculiar yet strikingly handsome Emery finally becomes real.

But when one magician with a penchant for deadly scheming believes that Ceony possesses a secret, he vows to discover it… even if it tears apart the very fabric of their magical world. After a series of attacks target Ceony, and catch those she holds most dear in the crossfire, she knows she must find the true limits of her powers… and keep her knowledge from falling into wicked hands.

The delightful sequel to Charlie N. Holmberg’s The Paper Magician, The Glass Magician will charm listeners young and old alike.

Not as good as book one

Would you try another book from Charlie N. Holmberg and/or Amy McFadden?

I would and have tried books by the author. I enjoyed how Amy McFadden did her narration.

If you’ve listened to books by Charlie N. Holmberg before, how does this one compare?

his book isn't as good as book 1of the series. Our heroine doesn't develop well. She seems too emotional and doesn't handle situations well. The bad guys pop in and out of the story without any real explanations going on to their reasons. Their motives are scattered about in bits and it takes effort keep pay attention to these details. The story also jumps around making it hard to follow at times. I got the impression that things were dumped in to add content to the story.

What three words best describe Amy McFadden’s performance?

There is good character interpretation. She speaks well and clearly.

Was The Glass Magician worth the listening time?

This is a fair book. You do need to know what is happened in book 1 to understand some of the factors of book 2. But book 2 isn't as good as book one.

Good light story

It waz good for a light entertainment. The motivations were a little bit too juvenile. But it is entertaining and different from most stories.

good read

Liked book 2, it had imaginative writing and the plot development was better than the first of the trilogy

second book

always a bit confusing getting the second book first. that was not clear when I got it.

loved it!

this was a great story. the characters were relatable and the story action packed.

Glass Magician DELIVERS

Brilliant performance. Many twists! A must read for anyone looking for action, magic and a bit of romance too.

I wasn't sure when I picked up book 1 but now I simply CANT PUT THIS SERIES DOWN! Try it, you won't be disappointed.

Very entertaining

Well read and entertaining. It was a little too much off a young girl in love for me but I still liked it.

Annoying Narrator, Cute Story

The melodramatic narration is truly annoying, and the terrible, fake British accent doesn't help. The story is fun, though the author makes some strange choices near the end that seem not only out of character for the two protagonists but also illogical. Still, it's a worthy sequel.

Really good although the ending seemed rushed

I wish the writer had slowed down the ending, it would have been better as a longer novel. And it was jarring to be in the viewpoint of someone not ciannny seeing as the entire first and majority of this novel are from her point of view.

Enjoyed more than the first book

Engaging performance of an interesting story.
I am really enjoying this series as it unfolds.
I enjoyed other apprentices explaining their materials.
