The Secret of Lillian Velvet

Kingdoms and Empires, Book 5

De: Jaclyn Moriarty

Narrado por: Vivian Carter, Philip Bretherton

Here are only a few of the wonderful, strange, and mysterious elements in this breathtaking visit to the Kingdoms and Empires: A very proper girl named Lillian Velvet, living a very lonely life with a nasty Grandmother. A jar of coins, each with the power to take Lillian on a journey to a different time and place…and also to grant a single wish. A small boy in a barn about to be crushed to death by a load of hay. A family, each member in mortal danger, who are strangers to Lillian (but whom clever listeners will recognize). And a web of dangerous magic closing tight around all. Who IS this Lillian Velvet? And what is her secret?

Only Jaclyn Moriarty has the ability to make people laugh, even while they grip the sides of their chairs in suspense. In THE SECRET OF LILLIAN VELVET, she is at the height of her storytelling powers, spinning, spinning, spinning seemingly disparate elements until all is revealed as one delicious, tantalizing whole.

It ended too soon…

It was wonderful as are all of Jaclyn Moriarty’s books. I tried not to listen quickly but promptly failed. Now, the long wait begins again. I am a grown up who remembers how to play. If you are too, this book is perfect for you. I would definitely reccomend anyone who is just finding these books, start at the beginning of the series.
