The Details:
Narrated by Susan Duerden
Unabridged
I couldn't deal with the narrator's voice any longer. I feel sick awful but she sounded like a new presenter and her various children voices peaked high iritation into my brain.
The story also wasn't one I was really invested in either, unfortunately.

I was recommended this series by a friend and I absolutely loved it. I find it shocking that it’s middle grade - the story feels a lot darker than what I usually see for that age group. It’s certainly not a happy tale. In fact, the story is near depressing. The main character is tormented/tortured, people die, and injuries are written out in a bit more detail (nothing gory, for sure though!). Fans of the Nevermoor series will love this!
