About this listen

The Electrical Menagerie, a one-of-a-kind robotic roadshow, is bankrupt. Sylvester Carthage, illusionist and engineer, has the eccentric imagination the Menagerie needs to succeed creatively - but none of the people skills. Fast-talking Arbrook Huxley, meanwhile, has all the savvy the Menagerie needs to succeed commercially - but none of the scruples.

To save their show, Carthage and Huxley risk everything in a royal talent competition, vying for the once-in-a-lifetime chance to perform for the future celestial queen. In this stardust- and spark-powered empire of floating islands and flying trains, the Electrical Menagerie's bid at fame and fortune means weathering the glamorous and cutthroat world of critics, high society, and rival magicians - but with real conspiracy lurking beneath tabloid controversy, there's more at stake in this contest than the prize.

Behind the glittery haze of flash paper and mirrors, every competitor has something to hide...and it's the lies Carthage and Huxley tell each other that may cost them everything.

I was drawn to this audiobook as It is a completely different genre to what i would usually listen to and I welcomed the change. i found the story just so engaging and interesting and personally feel that this was down to the narrator . it was wonderfully told and to be honest I really didn't want it to end . lots of twists and turns along the way and a pure treat for the imagination . I can't wait to hear about other books from this collection . I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. would highly recommend to readers of all ages

so imaginative just a wonderful listen
