Hennepin County Library audiobook 10 discs
read by William Dufris
genre: YA fantasy adventure
This is one of those books that I am extremely confident I would have enjoyed better in a print version. Dufis' vocal work made the kid characters sound like clueless idiots. Judging by how much readers enjoy this (including Louie and Alex) and the contrast with my irritation listening to it, the challenge here is in the listening experience. I'll have to read #2 in print up at the lake and see.
Bobby Pendragon learns he is a "traveler" when his uncle whisks him away to Denduron. Without really having much of anything explained to him, he must help save a planet and the entire universe. Eh. We'll see. . . .
