Lots of fun and my kids love it.

Alcatraz is silly and fun. The splashes of reference to sanderson's other works are fun to listen for.

an enjoyable book

had some funny references of spooks way of speaking from mistborn and a funny stab at Harry potter at the end of the book.

Creative, Fun, and quirky

This was my first dramatized audio book. It took some time for me to get used to the format, but it made for fun listen. As for the story, it is creative, fun, and quirky. I especially enjoyed the tangents Alcatraz goes on periodically through out the narrative. The story comes off typical for the genre, but Sanderson knows just how to spice things up to keep the story interesting even for an adult reader.

Also, Rutabaga.

The best!!!!

I absolutely love these books!!!!!🥰 They make you feel as though you are part of the book and include you in the book. Just as a suggestion if you do listen to these books, wearing headphones makes it even better because you can hear every little background noise.

Converted a tiny skeptic!

We've tried over and over again to have a book that the entire family (9/7/4) could listen to, and never succeeded. Ad soon as we started this, the entire family couldn't stop. It's funny, fast paced, and packed full of graphic audio goodness. An easy choice for all readers, Sanderson fans or not.

Exciting

The story was awesome and it was so hard to stop!!
I like the audio it helped me understand the person😀

Breaking the Fourth Wall

The main character talks to the reader as often as he talks to other characters.

Credits ugh

Why are they at the beginning they belong at the end when you won’t miss anything if you skip them ugh why whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!

THE. VERY. BEST. STORY. IN. THE. WORLD.

I didn’t dislike anything about anything of the story. Everything about it is absolutely amazing.

literally the best

not much else to say, genuinely my favorite comfort show, even tho it's an audiobook
