Story
The mighty engines of Anchorage have been rusted and dead for years. The derelict city no longer roams the Ice Wastes, but has settled on the edge of the land that was once America. Tom Natsworthy and Hester Shaw are happy in the safety of a static settlement, but their daughter, Wren, is desperate for adventure. When a dangerously charming submarine pirate offers her a chance to escape, Wren doesn't think twice about leaving her home and her parents behind. But the pirate wants something in return - Wren must steal the mysterious Tin Book.

It’s not easy making the career jump from office-supplies-store middle manager to heroic interdimensional adventurer. At least, Jason tries to be heroic, but it's hard to be good when all your powers are evil. He’ll face off against cannibals, cultists, wizards, monsters...and that’s just on the first day. He’s going to need courage, he’s going to need wit, and he’s going to need some magic powers of his own. But first, he’s going to need pants.

We were fighting on the wrong side of a war we couldn't win. And that was the good news. The Ruhar hit us on Columbus Day. There we were, innocently drifting along the cosmos on our little blue marble, like the native Americans in 1492. Over the horizon come ships of a technologically advanced, aggressive culture, and BAM! There go the good old days, when humans only got killed by each other. So, Columbus Day. It fits. When the morning sky twinkled again, this time with Kristang starships jumping in to hammer the Ruhar, we thought we were saved.

the middle was disappointing
the beginning was good, the ending was good, the middle was insufferable. I only finished it because the first book was Mortal engines. Without giving too much away, I struggled through that cliche big misunderstanding Trope where all the characters have an unneeded conflict and then have to go and mope and do things that are completely out of their character. if you can get through that, it's almost worth it for the end.

Thank you!
imaginative. so well written, that it allows our imagination to give illustrated life to the characters. it is very easy to lose yourself in this series.
the best way to listen to any story is with an open mind. do not try to out maneuver or out wit the story. this is a series that requires an open mind.
my friend argued that "Christopher Columbo" did not discover America in 1924. there's your sign. have a great listen. audible up!

Predictable
I thought Barnaby Edwards' narration was just as great in this book as Mortal Engines, but the story was unfolding so predictably that I actually had to stop halfway through and didn't listen for two days before finally finishing out of sheer curiosity. The ending was exactly as I'd thought and seeing the synopsis for the next book I won't be listening to it. I love the world it takes place in and Philip Reeve's style, but I don't want to figure out in the first chapter what will happen through the whole book.

Misogyny is NOT “kindness”
This story features a very unique and intriguing world and voice actor. It’s characters, however, are less so. The male lead is repeatedly described as “kind” yet rarely if ever displays that attribute. The author has made him self-serving and closed minded, rude and uncaring. He only values women based on their beauty and/or willingness to have sex with him. The author clearly defines “kindness” as having sex with unattractive girls, telling them he loves them, and then cheats on them. The author has also created a female lead character whose only personality trait is self-hatred which is most decidedly NOT a legitimate personality. Creating a character like Hester Shaw who has been scarred and disfigured is fantastic, having her only concern in an apocalyptic future world where survival is a struggle be her beauty and wether or not she can keep dating a guy that clearly doesn’t care about her is absolutely horrendous. The moment someone prettier then Hester Shaw comes along Tom immediately begins to treat Hester horribly and to fetishize over the new girl. Never once does Tom even think about his looks but Hester’s every waking thought is about Tom and her beauty, or rather lack thereof. I may have worded this as though it were the fault of Hester or Tom, because how can fictional characters be at fault? No, this is simply yet another misogynistic male author perpetuating the idea that the only goals women have in life are to be beautiful and to date a man and that men can do whatever they want to whoever they want and call it kindness. I’m so sick of stories like these. If I could give it fewer stars I would.

I read the book with my son a few years ago . Revisiting it through Audible has been great fun, and Barnaby Edwards’ narration is first rate. The characterisations are first rate, the plot draws you in, and I was completely emersed in the world of traction cities. Can’t wait to get started on ‘Infernal Devices’

Not at all childish!
Published as a children's book but at 62 I found it a very satisfying and engaging tale.
Well written and equally well performed in this audio version.
Better than the sloppy writing and editing of many, so called, adult offerings.
