Good

This book was very good even better than I thought the book is super interesting😎

Fabulous story but…

I love Jen Calonita’s writing, the villains the heroes, the adventures, everything feels so fantastic and exciting, the adventure never really ends.

Unfortunately this audio was a flop, it felt like there was more than one narrator almost and that when it “switched” the line would be read over again, with better editing it most certainly would have provided a better listening experience.

Ho hum

You’ll really like this if you haven’t read any others among the recent plethora of Bizarre Academy books. Or if you are inclined toward the school rules suck persuasion. Or as proof that social institutions are the primary means of division and control. Or you are seeking to expand your list of twists on the most well known Grimm stories. We do learn that the conundrum of Robin Hood will not be resolved but our present hero is always right. And you might gain a renewed appreciation for the integrity of our present educational systems, wherever you are.

Audio editing issues

Loved the story and narrator did a good job, but the editing is terrible! The cutting and splicing is off, you hear the narrator repeat sections that weren't edited out.

Version Confusion?

As with the rest of Jen Calonita’s books, my daughter and I loved the story;however, the reader/audio editor made several mistakes. This sounded like a draft of a final performance including several moments where the reader repeated words or phrases for the correct tone or pronunciation.
