About this listen

Brinley has spent her life lost in her imagination, teaching bullfrogs to do gymnastics and pretending to be invisible. Now, when a magic bell from another world summons her across time and space on a journey to find her mother, she will discover real friendship, face true evil, and overcome her greatest fears in order to save the ones she loves.

The Mage and the Magpie is the first book in Austin J. Bailey's Magemother series: an epic middle-grade fantasy adventure series with witches, shapeshifters, and cliffhangers, and awesome kids.

i thought this would be an interesting story and it was so much more. enthralling.

My first audible book...i loved it.

I really loved the story, however, the narration sounds robotic and disjointed. Doesn't seem to be the narrator, more like the wrong levels were used when recording and editing....

love story, but narration sounds robotic.
