Editorial Reviews

The final book in Nix’s gripping series needs a sophisticated narration, and it succeeds with Alan Corduner. He conveys the tension of the ticking clock as Arthur, Leif, and the denizens of the House struggle to hold back the Nothing and reunite all seven parts of the Will. Listeners will feel Arthur’s conflicted feelings as he becomes irrevocably transformed by his quest. Corduner dramatizes the complexity of the series’ moral dilemmas through his outstanding characterizations. He creates identifiable voices for Arthur, Leif, and many others who anchor the different perspectives from which the story is told. Hearing the story through these well-crafted voices, listeners will have total confidence in Nix’s imaginary world. C.A. © AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
