De: Andrew Peterson

Narrado por: Andrew Peterson

Once, in a cottage above the cliffs on the Dark Sea of Darkness, there lived three children and their trusty dog, Nugget.

Janner Igiby, his brother, Tink, and their disabled sister, Leeli, are gifted children as all children are, loved well by a noble mother and ex-pirate grandfather. But they will need all their gifts and all that they love to survive the evil pursuit of the venomous Fangs of Dang, who have crossed the dark sea to rule the land with malice. The Igibys hold the secret to the lost legend and jewels of good King Wingfeather of the Shining Isle of Anniera.

Full of characters rich in heart, smarts, and courage, On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness is a tale children of all ages will cherish, families can read aloud, and readers' groups are sure to enjoy discussing for its many layers of meaning.

*This audiobook includes a PDF of maps, illustrations, and more.

A Binge-Worthy Book (+ series)

A fantastic read that appeals not only to mid-graders, but also to readers of all ages, including myself. Peterson masterfully crafts a rich and immersive world that is brimming with dangers and acts of bravery.

One of the standout aspects of this book is the characters. The children in the story are wonderfully unique, each with their own quirks and imperfections, which makes them incredibly relatable. As a KidLit writer, I appreciate how Peterson portrays young characters who feel real and authentic, facing challenges and growing throughout the story.

Peterson's creative us of language is a highlight of the book. His writing style is not only descriptive but also remarkably entertaining and often humorous. This adds a layer of enjoyment to the reading experience, making it a delightful journey from start to finish.

I wholeheartedly recommend "On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness" to anyone seeking a beautifully written and satisfying adventure. Whether you're a mid-grader, parent, or just someone who appreciate a well-crafted story, this book is sure to captivate your imagination.

Fun for the whole family

The whole family enjoyed this story. Can’t wait for the next book. We listened around the campfire nearly every evening.
