The Last Apprentice: I Am Alice (Book 12)

By: Joseph Delaney

Narrated by: Angela Goethals

The twelfth volume in the Last Apprentice series, the internationally bestselling fantasy adventure books that inspired the forthcoming major motion picture, Seventh Son. Told from the point of view of Alice, best friend—and true love—to Tom, the spook's last apprentice. Alice is the most powerful witch in the world, and she ventures into the dark itself. Will she return?

Alice Dean's destiny is intertwined with Tom Ward's. But he's going to be the next Spook, and she's a witch—possibly the most powerful one the world has ever seen. To rid the world of its greatest evil, the Fiend, Alice will venture into the depths of the dark for the final weapon Tom needs to defeat him. Will she survive? Or will she make the ultimate sacrifice for Tom?

The Last Apprentice series is soon to be a major motion picture, Seventh Son, starring Jeff Bridges, Ben Barnes, Alicia Vikander, Kit Harington, Olivia Williams, Antje Traue, Djimon Hounsou, and Julianne Moore as Mother Malkin.

Narrator on Valium

What did you like best about I Am Alice? What did you like least?

Continuing the series from Alice's point of view was brilliant, giving her character more depth and letting us see the struggle within herself between light and dark.

What was the most interesting aspect of this story? The least interesting?

Finding allies in the dark. And the alternative given at the end is a terrifying prospect. But seriously, what's up with Pan?

How could the performance have been better?

Get rid of Angela Goethals completely. If the rest of the books in the series have her as a narrator, I'm not spending another penny on the books. She reads in a strained monotone, like she's slightly strung out and sustains it the entire time. Christopher Evan Welch brings age, despair, happiness, joy, caution, passion, wryness, discipline, joviality, etc, in his reading of the series. This narrator needs to lay off the valium.

Did I Am Alice inspire you to do anything?

Return the book, entirely because of the awful narrator.

Amazing!

As a writer of fantasy action adventure and horror, I enjoyed this story immensely! The story and characters are sublime!

If you listen at 1.25x, it sounds normal

How could the performance have been better?

If she characterized everyone like she did Bony Lizzie, the performance would be so much better.

Any additional comments?

Please bring back Christopher Evan Welch for the last book.

Great but sad

Great but sad not because of death but for consequences. Pray for salvation for Alice.

not a fa

no a fan of the female Vocals. preferred the solo male narrator reader. i also did not like the bouncing around of the male and female speakers. the 1 male reader who would change his voice was great.
