The Pinhoe Egg

De: Diana Wynne Jones

Narrado por: Gerard Doyle

Pacific Northwest Library Association Young Reader's Choice Award

Cat Chant and Marianne Pinhoe have discovered something incredibly exciting, truly precious, and very strange—an egg.

This egg was not meant to be found. Chrestomanci himself, Cat's guardian and the strongest enchanter in the world, is sure to find it particularly interesting. And that's the last thing Marianne's family of secret rogue witches wants.

But the Pinhoes' secrets are falling to pieces, and powerful spells are wreaking havoc across the country-side. Marianne and Cat may be the only two who can set things right—if Marianne accepts her own powerful magic, and Cat solves the mystery behind the mystical Pinhoe Egg.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A must for Chrestomanci fans, this solidly entertaining tale is also accessible to readers new to the series." (Booklist)

Best performance yet

Great story, and though I've read it a few times this audio book had me spellbound, excuse the pun. Mr. Doyle did a great job of keeping all of the Pinhoe uncles separate, which must have been incredibly difficult, and the female voices were never screechy or strident.
Anyone who enjoys magic, English humor, mysteries and alternate worlds will love this tale.

Excellent!

I love DWJ books and this one was no different. Excellent! The narrator is also great! I love that the series has the same narrator.

wonderfull all round

this is one of my favorite books if all time. it's a comfort read, and the narrator for this was so good I kept forgetting I was listening to a book and kept going back 30 seconds to "rewatch/see" my favorite parts.

Excellent!
