About this listen

 This is a story about craft, about work, about magic, and most of all about the pleasure and difficulty of friendship. It begins when four young misfits with a talent for magic (and trouble!) arrive at Winding Circle Temple. Despite their differences, Sandry (the noble), Tris (the merchant girl), Daji (the trader), and Briar (the "street rat") find themselves bound together in a Circle of Magic - a circle they will need when they face crushing danger in a white-knuckle climax that will have listeners glued to the edges of their seats.Follow the adventures of all the young mages-in-training with Tamora Pierce's Circle of Magic series.©1997 Tamora Pierce (P)2002 Full Cast Audio Science Fiction & Fantasy

Editor reviews

In the first audiobook of Pierce's Circle of Magic quartet, the mage Niklaren Goldeye gathers four children and takes them to Winding Circle temple. They possess powers they do not understand, which leads to their being moved to Discipline cottage and which may end up making them a family. Full Cast Audio used almost 30 actors in this presentation, and the result is an exceptional match between the voices and the character descriptions, including children's characters being voiced by children. The resulting authenticity helps bring the world of Emelan to life. High production values are also seen in the musical accents and sound quality.

Critic reviews

"Sandry's Book is a wonderful fantasy story and the Full Cast Audio presentation puts listeners right in the middle of the action." (The Shy Librarian)

Excellent fantasy story

I love Tamora Pierce's books and this is no exception. I would say qualifies as cosy/YA fantasy but in the best sense - especially if you have a "Hogwarts" style void in your life. in fact, I would say it exceed that series
I don't really like the narration, I like the sound engineering/music, but it's definitely not my favourite. A little flat. And I kept thinking the word "Trader" was "Traitor" because of her pronunciation. However... objectively, the narrator is pleasant and effective, just not my personal taste.

narration odd, story great

narration was a bit flat, with no pauses for commas, which took a bit of getting used to. but I loved the characters enough to keep going, and the full cast was cool
