Amanda Ronconi
From New York Times number-one best-selling author Patricia C. Wrede, the second in the series of magic on the western frontier.
Eff is riding west, away from the safety of the frontier city she's always known.... Eff could be a powerful magician if she wanted to. Except she's not sure she wants that kind of responsibility. Everyone keeps waiting for her to do something amazing - or to fail in a spectacular way. Worse, her twin brother, Lan, a powerful double seventh son, is jealous of all the attention she's been getting.
Even as Eff protests that she's just an ordinary girl, she's asked to travel past the Barrier Spell with one of the new professors at her father's school. The land west of the Barrier is full of dangers, both magical and wild. Eff will need to use all her strength - magical and otherwise - to come safely back home.
With wit, magic, and a touch of good pioneer sense, Patricia C. Wrede once again weaves a fantastic tale of the very wild west.

What made the experience of listening to Across the Great Barrier the most enjoyable?
Amanda Ronconi has the greatest voice. She reads at the perfect tempo, never sounds bored. She has a broad range of voices for different characters. I love listening to her. I never have to speed up or slow down the program to compensate for poor meter as I do in some other stories.Who was your favorite character and why?
Eff is the main character but I like Wash and Prof. Torgensen the best. They are both main characters who add spice to the story. Both are helping to shape Eff far more than her parents are.Have you listened to any of Amanda Ronconi’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
It is just as great as the other ones. It might even be a bit better. She has to make a far greater range of accents in this one than in some of her other stories.If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Here there be Dragons.Any additional comments?
This story reminds me of the old maps where there is "Here there be Dragons" written in spots no one has explored in the past. In this story, there really are dragons, and a wide range of other magical beasts that cause problems for new settlers.There is vibrancy in this story that makes it really come to life, I imagine this story will become a cult type of book much like some of the other books have over the years. It is right up there with the Harry Potter series, the Nancy Drew books, the Little House books. Yes, it really is "that good". My only complaint is that I wish the books were longer and I wish there were more of them.
Great, simply great!

What about Amanda Ronconi’s performance did you like?
Amanda Ronconi's performance is stellar, as it was in the last book. She captures the character of Eff in a great way, and her performance of all the characters is exemplary.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Absolutely. I practically did, in fact.Any additional comments?
I liked the first book a bit better, I think, since it covered so much ground in such a short amount of time. This book slows things down a lot. That said, they are in the meat of the story now, so some may prefer the pacing of this book to the last one.More magical western awesomeness.

Would you listen to Across the Great Barrier again? Why?
Loved all 3 books in this series. It never got boring, always wanted to hear more. Still want more after hearing all 3 books. Loved it. Give us more!What does Amanda Ronconi bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
What can I say; other than she makes it feel real. She is without a doubt my favorite narrator thus far. And I have listened to many. Thanks and keep them coming.Frontier magic serious awesome
