About this listen

Egan Bagley is a talented clockmaker who is about to create one of the most magnificent clocks the country has ever set its eyes on, but after a visit from a gypsy selling him a bewitched bead, things are about to turn peculiar. With the magical powers of the four faced clock, the little gnome of a man plays havoc with time and is about to become one of the richest men in Chester with upsetting consequences.

Would you consider the audio edition of The Little Big Clockmaker to be better than the print version?

I really enjoyed the print version of this book so I bought the audio version for my mother who is partially sighted - we both enjoyed listening to it, the narration was pitched perfectly and really complemented the story.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Egan Bagley is indeed a talented clockmaker and every time I look at the Eastgate Clock I think of him.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

This was certainly a book that you had to listen to in one sitting and we enjoyed it from start to finish.

Any additional comments?

Evelyn Winters is a very talented writer and Guy Veryzer did this story justice. I would love to listen to more from this very creative partnership

Chester at its best!
