Publisher's summary

From the best-selling author of How to Train Your Dragon comes an exciting high-adventure series - set in a magical time, full of Wizards, Warriors, Giants, and Sprites.

This was once the story of a young boy Wizard and a young girl Warrior who had been taught since birth to hate each other like poison.

But now, the boy Wizard and girl Warrior have been brought together in the Badwoods and they have witnessed the shocking consequences of the Stone That Takes Away Magic. They will need to cast aside their differences once more - for an Evil Spell has broken free.

It's up to Xar and Wish to find the ingredients. But it means entering dangerous territory unannounced...

Cressida Cowell brings her trademark wit to this spellbinding sequel, weaving a story that is sure to transport listeners to a world that will enchant and bewitch them.

Good fantasy story with excellent narration

I really like this series a lot and the characters. It's interesting how it's the warriors versus the wizards kind of conflict but it's the first class narration by David Tennant for all the different characters and the action of the story that makes it fantastic.

The Fun Continues!

I love these books so much I've listened to them multiple times. They are so much fun! David Tennant is a brilliant narrator with a wide range of voices and, of course, fantastic acting. Magic, adventure, giants, spoons, flying doors, and well written prose. This series is now one of my favorites!

Great second book

This was a great continuation of the first story. It filled in some details on secondary characters which was nice to fill out the world a bit more. Again, the narration was amazing - leaving me to say that when my children read this book I will actually have them listen!

A fun romp.

I absolutely loved the How to Train your Dragon series, I recommend it to everybody, young or old. So of course, I had to give this one a try and it is almost as good. I loved it, and I can’t wait until the next book comes out. I also love David Tennent in this series, he really enhances the listening experience. He makes the story that much more fun.

A great story. It flows smoothly.

this book is a wonderous novel. the story flows perfectly, not lingering to long on any certain part. David Tennet does a wonderful job with the different voices for the characters.
