About this listen

An enchanting new novella set in the magical world of Sunday Times bestseller Threadneedle.

Rowan is visiting her aunt – Winne the hedge witch – in the Welsh countryside, to get back to nature and hone her skills, as well as taking a break from her annoying sisters and enjoying some peace and quiet. However, Rowan soon comes to realise that hedges are a serious business and this isn’t quite the opportunity to rest and escape she thought it might be.

Not only that, but mysterious events around the town are causing panic in the secret magical community and cowans – non-magical folk – are starting to take notice.

Can Rowan hone her hedge craft, try to make some friends and solve the riddle of the mysterious goings-on, or is magic about to be revealed to the world … or at least Wales?

Nice novella, didn’t enjoy narration

Was a little disappointed by this after how good threadneedle was. It was a little too YA for me but I did enjoy it overall and it was nice to see a bit more of Rowans story. For a novella it had a nice little plot and I enjoyed learning more about the magic system in the threadneedle world.

Mostly docked a whole star for the bad audiobook narration (for my personal taste). The narrators voice was clear but fairly hoarse and it was narrated in quite a childish and over dramatised style which was very over the top. To be honest if I hadn’t spent an audible credit on it, I’m not sure I would have pushed through, definitely would recommend you preview the narration before purchasing.

Not sure who the audience is

Hugely over-acted - every word exaggerated as if the listener is deaf or stupid. Found it almost unbearable to listen to.

Toe curling narration

I really wanted to like this but the narration ruined it for me. So over the top and exaggerated. I felt like it was being read for young children. I appreciate that the main character is younger than she is in the first book but the narration, to me, seemed to be more suited to a much younger audience. Some of character voices were quite cringe worthy.
I really enjoyed Threadneedle, hence the listen for this. Hopefully the next, full length, installment from that world well be with us soon.
