About this listen

Alcatraz Versus the Evil Librarians is the first adventure in a fantasy series for all ages by the number one New York Times best-selling author Brandon Sanderson.

On his 13th birthday, foster child Alcatraz Smedry gets a bag of sand in the mail - his only inheritance from his father and mother. He soon learns that this is no ordinary bag of sand. It is quickly stolen by the cult of evil Librarians who are taking over the world by spreading misinformation and suppressing truth. Alcatraz must stop them, using the only weapon he has: an incredible talent for breaking things.

Performed by Alejandro Ruiz, Chris Genebach, Carolyn Kashner, Zeke Alton, Marni Penning, Bradley Smith, Richard Rohan, Peter Holdway, David Jourdan, Colleen Delany, James Lewis, Michael John Casey, Scott McCormick, Chris Stinson, Ken Jackson, Sasha Olinick, Terence Aselford.

Brandon has messed about with your normal thought process with this book, well worth adding to your library.

Something different

very enjoyable! loved the pacing between action and emotion and the fun/silly interludes (which often make commentary on this very thing)
Entertaining characters and a world that seems totally absurd, but held together by (admittedly unique) logic

Great performances and funny but fizzled down as it progressed. Then again to be fair its a young person book and I’m a hexagenarian

Great fun but struggled as it went along
