The windows between the many worlds have been sealed, and the momentous adventures of Lyra Silvertongue’s youth are long behind her - or so she thought. Lyra is now a 20-year-old undergraduate at St. Sophia’s College, and intrigue is swirling around her once more. Her daemon, Pantalaimon, is witness to a brutal murder, and the dying man entrusts them with secrets that carry echoes from their past. The more Lyra is drawn into these mysteries, the less she is sure of.

I love the choice of Michael Sheen as narrator, I was excited to see he was the reader.
This trilogy is a worth companion to the first one which I devoutly listened to with my son as he grew up.
So complex and philosophicallly packed. Every new installment makes me think about it for long afterwards.

In this award-winning Audible Studios production, Trevor Noah tells his wild coming-of-age tale during the twilight of apartheid in South Africa. It’s a story that begins with his mother throwing him from a moving van to save him from a potentially fatal dispute with gangsters, then follows the budding comedian’s path to self-discovery through episodes both poignant and comical.

Trevor is the only choice for this book!

He’s got a lovely voice; his delivery is unmatched; his story is fascinating, hilarious, touching, horrifying, and inspiring. This is a great story to share with entitled young Americans who need a reality check. I can only hope we get a sequel where he shares his journey to stardom!

Bounty hunter Stephanie Plum is back, packing a whole lot of attitude. This time around, she's on the trail of Kenny Mancuso, a boy from the working-class burg of Trenton, New Jersey, who has just shot his best friend. Fresh out of the Army and suspiciously wealthy, Mancuso's also distantly related to Joe Morelli, a vice cop with questionable ethics, a libido in permanent overdrive, and a habit of horning in on Stephanie's investigations.

Love grandma Mazur and Stephanie Plum.
CJ Critt is the perfect narrator.

Isabel Spellman's life consists of 24-hour surveillance, routine investigations into her acquaintances, and listening devices planted in her deadbolt-locked room. For a 28-year-old in a family composed almost entirely of private investigators or former cops, the tools of the trade turn typical family dysfunction into commonplace espionage.

The Spellman family is disturbed, yet endearing
Revisado: 04-20-12
Where does The Spellman Files rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I enjoyed the narrator, and found her voice fit the story well. She was one of the best narrators I've listened to. I loved the character of Izzy, and found her faults to be endearing even though she's more hard-boiled than most comic heroines I've met. I guess I just identify with her more than some of the goody-two-shoes girl-cops in other detective fiction.
What other book might you compare The Spellman Files to and why?
Interestingly, I found the review saying Izzy was the love-child of Dirty Harry and Harriet the Spy fairly accurate! I love Harriet the Spy, and she'd be about my age right now, which I find a very good recommendation in a heroine.
What does Ari Graynor bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I love to read, but her voice fits in with my concept of what Izzy sounds like, and I like to hear "Izzy" telling me the story.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
If I could have, but it was enjoyable to have it to listen to for a while.
Any additional comments?
I loved the fact that it was a series and continued with the further adventures of the Spellmans!
