The Magic Thief

By: Sarah Prineas

Narrated by: Greg Steinbruner

Discover the fantasy and wonder of The Magic Thief, the first book in Sarah Prineas’s acclaimed middle grade fantasy series! Diana Wynne Jones, author of Howl's Moving Castle, said: ""I couldn't put it down. Wonderful, exciting stuff.""

In a city that runs on a dwindling supply of magic, a young boy is drawn into a life of wizardry and adventure. Conn should have dropped dead the day he picked Nevery's pocket and touched the wizard's locus magicalicus, a stone used to focus magic and work spells. But for some reason he did not. Nevery finds that interesting, and he takes Conn as his apprentice on the provision that the boy find a locus stone of his own. But Conn has little time to search for his stone between wizard lessons and helping Nevery discover who—or what—is stealing the city of Wellmet's magic.

This is one of my favorite series

I really like this story, I like the plot of the story through all the books in the series. I think if you have your children listen to this they would like it, if you like this book then you might like the Michael Vey, Fablehaven, or the griffin chronicles.

Great story

Interesting characters, believable dialogue, intriguing story. Really enjoyed the narrator. This was our first experience with him...his voice caught us with the first sentence. Well done.
