Looking at real estate isn’t usually a life-or-death situation, but an apartment open house becomes just that when a failed bank robber bursts in and takes a group of strangers hostage. The captives include a recently retired couple who relentlessly hunt down fixer-uppers to avoid the painful truth that they can’t fix their own marriage. There’s a wealthy bank director who has been too busy to care about anyone else and a young couple who are about to have their first child but can’t seem to agree on anything.

I absolutely love this writer. His heart must be the size of Sweden. Grateful they translate his work for more of us to enjoy. Beautiful story, as always. The narrator also did a stunning job. Just excellent!

Bella was sixteen when she discovered the truth: For the last decade, she’d been lost in a book. Literally. For the world she’d known her whole life was a fiction, everyone she’d ever known merely a character created by the magic of a powerful Writer. Bella discovers that she’d been sent into the book’s world by her late mother to escape the clutches of a murderous villain known as the Collector, the man who murdered Bella’s mother...and will stop at nothing to destroy her. Now Bella must learn the art of painting to fight back against the Collector.

Just get it! It's great!

I listen to a lot of YA fantasy, and although many are fun, rarely do they offer unique story lines. They are often retreads of other books like HP. This book is different! No HP. No Lord of the Rings. The Magic Collector jumps off the page like a Miyazaki animated film where characters and creatures do the unexpected and the inventive. The main characters, Bella and Simon, actually have a meaningful story arc. The pure adventure of the audiobook is worth a listen alone. But the underlying themes are the jewels of this book. I absolutely loved it.
It was also brilliantly and thoughtfully narrated by John Pirhalla. An exceptional performance.
Can't wait to listen to book 2!

Can't wait for book 2!
Revisado: 04-27-20
Loved this audiobook. Can't wait for the next book! Love this type of YA story. Kids meet from different backgrounds at an Academy to learn magic (in this case to control the elements). All the characters are likeable. Back story is great and mysterious and slowly unfolds like any good series should. Well written. Fast paced but thoughtful. This book does not drag like The Name of the Wind dragged from time to time. Books are similar.
The narration is first rate. Have listened to other books narrated by John Pirhalla. He's phenomenal. A million, voices and accents in this one. Really makes the story come alive. The reason I bought the audiobook was the narrator. Glad I did because I have found a new writer!

Young Emmett Farmer is working in the fields when a strange letter arrives summoning him away from his family. He is to begin an apprenticeship as a bookbinder - a vocation that arouses fear, superstition, and prejudice among their small community, but one neither he nor his parents can afford to refuse. For as long as he can recall, Emmett has been drawn to books, even though they are strictly forbidden. Bookbinding is a sacred calling, Seredith informs her new apprentice, and he is a binder born.
