Publisher's summary

Nickle Brickle’Bee is odd, even by his own standards. While most boys are starting to get hair under their arms, Nickle starts growing whiskers on his chin. By the time he is 12, he can grow a full beard.

Then, one day, Nickle finds himself swallowed by the earth and taken to the center of the world, where he finds a massive magical city called EarthWorks that is governed by a myriad of powerful creatures.

Between horrifying monsters, elves that rule with pomp and power, fairies that are in open rebellion, a greedy dwarf warlord, and an indestructible but blind adversary, Nickle finds himself in the middle of a power struggle that could mean the end of this new world.

Just as good as Brandon Mull books

I enjoyed this book every bit as much as Fablehaven, Beyonders and 5 kingdoms. Great read. Family friendly and entertaining. Highly recommend if you like the above mentioned series.

Delightfully Fun and Entertaining!

Nickle Brickle’Bee is different from most 12-year-old boys because he’s shorter than most, he has the ability to grow facial hair, his name is odd, and he has a penchant for tasting soil. Placed in a home where honesty is valued above everything else, Nickle finds himself in a bit of a spot. Before he can decide what to do, he is whisked off to the center of the earth. There he discovers his parentage, meets elves, fairies, and finds himself in a battle against a dwarf warlord and another evil nearly immortal enemy. Nickle must navigate his way through his new life and make sense of his new discoveries. Something that seems a bit overwhelming.

I thoroughly loved this audiobook. It is written for listeners of all ages. One cannot help but smile at the predicaments that Nickle and his friend Jason find themselves in. The race with the hedgehogs and other animals is priceless!
Every aspect of this story was well developed including characters, dialog, and plot twists. The author, Sterling Nixon, creates a vivid world that is detailed in his unparalleled use of rich adjectives. Nixon’s writing style creates an impressive storyline.

The narrator, Jason Finch, gave an outstanding performance. I enjoyed his voices which for each character were distinct and suited for their personalities. His rhythm was smooth and well-timed. He kept the excitement going and added more depth to an already nearly perfect story!

There were no issues with the quality or production of this audiobook.

As a result, Nickle Brickle’Bee has been awarded the AudioBookReviewer Choice Award. This prestigious award is presented to the author of the book whose book is believed to deserve higher than the standard 5 Star Rating.
