Critic reviews

“The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel has everything you loved about Harry Potter, including magic, mystery, and a constant battle of good versus evil.” (Bustle)

Thank you Michael Scott for another great story

I'm excited and sad to be reaching the end of this amazing series. I really can't fault this in any way. Just a joy to listen to

Engrossing Series

This series caught me by surprise with it's interesting characters mingled with mythology and ongoing action, creating a world it's easy to get caught up in. I found one of the characters particularly annoying but not enough to quit listening, as I gobbled up all the stories in the series and was dismayed when I ran out. Eagerly awaiting book 6 and trying to find (unsuccessfully) equally engrossing audiobooks to get me by in the meantime.

Josh! a Gold Plated Turn Sandwich.

You ever see that kid who keeps making the wrong decisions over and over and everyone around then can see them screwing up except them? That is Josh. Cant confirm but I imagine this premise was the inspiration for Josh.

Great

The series continues on with this great book. I have loved every minute of the previous books, and this one has been no different! There continues to be more “real world” characters revealed and many good backstories come with them. If you’ve made it this far into the series, I don’t know why you’re even reading my review, get to the book!

Stunning as always

there's just so much happening in this book that I'm listening to it for a second time... before proceeding to the next installment in the series

I dont think Nicholas will ever Die

What made the experience of listening to The Warlock the most enjoyable?

It give a lot more back story to more of the elders and you finially find out who is the doctors elders

Who was your favorite character and why?

I am getting tired of the twins. I would have to say Billy the Kid or Dare

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

nope the extreme reaction is am I going to finish the book after the next one?

Wonderful Reading

This story I have read a serval times over the years. This is the first time I have had it read to me. The narration is very well done and keeps me visually interested well I’m busy.

Great Series

A few mistakes in the narration, Hecate's name needs consistency, either "Hek-ut" as was apparently common around the time of Shakespeare, or the Anglicized Greek form "Hek-u-tee".

Another great addition to the series

Would you consider the audio edition of The Warlock to be better than the print version?

Can't say

What other book might you compare The Warlock to and why?

Harry Potter ... Fantasy themes but not just for kids.

Which character – as performed by Paul Boehmer – was your favorite?

Machiavelli

Any additional comments?

Why are there no other Michael Scott titles on Audible? As far as I can tell the guy has written a zillion books, some of them Audible-fodder type series. Once this series is done I for one am going to be wanting more.

Missing chapter

Chapter 26 is from another book. That being said I was able to still follow the story through to the end.
