Summary
An enchanting story, masterfully told, The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune is about the profound experience of discovering an unlikely family in an unexpected place – and realizing that family could be yours.
He expected nothing. But they gave him everything . . .
Linus Baker leads a quiet life. At forty, he has a tiny house with a devious cat and his beloved records for company. And at the Department in Charge of Magical Youth, he’s spent many dull years monitoring their orphanages.
Then one day, Linus is summoned by Extremely Upper Management and given a highly classified assignment. He must travel to an orphanage where six dangerous children reside – including the Antichrist.
At the orphanage, Linus must somehow determine if they could bring about the end of days. But their guardian, the charming and enigmatic Arthur Parnassus, will do anything to protect his wards. And, as Arthur and Linus grow ever closer, Linus must choose: his duty, or his dreams . . .
The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune is an uplifting, heart-warming fantasy tale that’s become a New York Times, USA Today and Washington Post bestseller.

The most amazing book
I absolutely loved it. The whole story was perfect. A must read for sure. It was heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. It was performed so well and made me cry and laugh out loud in one sentence. Don't hesitate, read this book!

Brilliantly Narrated feel good story.
I loved this book and it was so brilliantly narrated. Everytime I heard the voice of Chauncey it made my heart smile. A real feel good story with wonderful characters about love and acceptance. This is the first book I have read by this author and the first book I have listened to with this narrator. I will definitely listen/read other books by T.J Klune or narrated by the Daniel Henning. 5*

Wasn’t sure at first as had read a couple of poor reviews amongst the rest but found it a totally absorbing and genuinely wonderful story.
Loved the characters and especially the relationship between Arthur and Linus.
Would definitely recommend to others!

Moral tale
I am glad I listened to this as I am not sure I would have followed through with the book.
A complex tale, a parable even, about acceptance of human differences and dignity of the person. Can’t say I loved it, it was a bit heavy handed in places, worthy of attention just the same.
