About this listen

The final book in the epic and bestselling children’s fantasy series that will make you believe in magic … Perfect for fans of Cressida Cowell's How to Train Your Dragon, Michelle Harrison's A Pinch of Magic, as well as classic children's fantasy adventures, Narnia and Jumanji.

Rose and Arthur are back in Roar, on a voyage that takes them further than they’ve ever been before: beyond The End.

It’s an amazing adventure – full of secrets, surprises and fairies with fangs – but then a mysterious storm changes everything.

Shipwrecked on a strange island, they make a shocking discovery … Could this be the end of Roar?

Critic reviews

This funny, captivating story is filled with the painful pangs of growing up and the transporting qualities of imagination', Imogen Russell-Williams, Guardian

'A vividly imagined adventure, […] full of heart, humour and a terrifying villain', Fiona Noble, Bookseller

'This is proof, not that it’s needed, that Jenny McLachlan is a writer of enormous heart and versatility. I’m a really big fan', award-winning author, Phil Earle

'Roar is an exhilarating, hilarious, vividly drawn tribute to the power of the childhood imagination, the love of family and the magic we risk losing as we grow up. If you plan to visit one new place in 2019, make it Roar', Sarah Driver, author of The Huntress trilogy

Amazing story, but after listening to the first two audio books it was a tough act to follow and this narrator just didn’t do it justice. None of the voices were the same, all too gentle and not as menacing as the first narrator. Plus there was no silent tension created between the chapters. We would buy and listen to it again if the original narrator read it out but fortunately, the story is so gripping, we still thoroughly enjoyed it.

Not the great narrator
