Summary

Alcatraz Smedry is back with a bang - infiltrating the Library of Alexandria, looking for his not-dead-after-all father and discovering a strange golden sarcophagus that might hold the key to his amazing talent for breaking things.

Oh, and his best friend Bastille's come along too - for evil-librarian-bashing purposes, of course.

Bones Versus Alcatraz

i did not want to listen to the end of this story as I found it very boring to listen to.

Yep, much better.

The first Alcatraz book was only available in the dramatised version in Audible so I went with that. I was not impressed so ditt the second I bought this regular version instead, and it's so much better I'm severely annoyed I had to endure the first book in an inferior way.

The Alcatraz books are aimed towards a young audience and children so don't expect the regular Sanderson treatment. They're still entertaining to me and I plan on listening through them all as long as I can get the proper audiobooks with this excellent narrator.
