A great listen

One of my favorite authors and one of her best books. Had a great time listening to it while working on a drawing.

i loved it!

it was absolutely amazing from start to finish, i haven't been able to find book that interested me in years but this trilogy has got me book obsessed all over again

In Love <3

I have recently listened to all of the Moving Castle series and they are fantastic! So quirky and funny and adventurous!

very entertaining

entertaining and fun,lots of adventure and magic.great plot,great characters.fun to listen to.i am hoping for more books in the series in the future.

I loved all three books:)

The story was wonderful, with a satisfying ending.
My only complaint on this third book is that I found the main character unlikable, and that didn’t seem to be resolved completely.

A cute sequel

This is a very cute sequel of Howls moving castle. I have enjoyed to story very much!!! :)

good?

This book was good. The characters are not very likable in the story is a little bit everywhere. It was still entertaining. I hate twinkle. But overall it's good You're better off just reading the first two books!

Delightful, wonderful characters, plot and magical

I first read and loved this in January 2009 and now have re-read it several times--and love it dearly. I think the world of Diana Wynne Jones, but only a few of her fantasy novels rise to the level of five stars. What makes this one so special? A wonderful, interesting, practical, yet magical home; a wonderful, interesting, impractical, yet magical young heroine; and a plot that was very interesting, with practical elements and that essential touch of magic. The plot is delightful with a very restricted young lass, who has much magic, is able to let loose and find her footing, understand her weaknesses, and be herself. The magic system is delightful. (I know I have repeated a lot of words like delightful and wonderful, but it fits the book, somehow.)

I also enjoyed the inclusion of known characters, such as Jamal and his squid-loving dog, and Howl's family, of course.

Just loved it! Excellent for re-reading and re-listening.

not bad

I found the story telling was great and easily imagined while listening. other stories were more catching in my opinion and this one was a little slower than I liked but was a good addition to the series

Delightful book

In this series Howells Moving Castle was my favorite but this is right up there with Howells Moving Castle it was a very delightful listen.
The narrator was excellent.
