Ironhand Audiobook

" I debated giving this 2 stars. I listened to the audiobook narrated by Jim Dale who did an amazing job, but I found myself hoping for the book to just finally get over with. "

" This was a good continuance of the first one. If I had had more time to just sit and read I would have finished it much faster. It didn't have any boring chapters of waiting for things to happen, as every character was in an active story the whole book. I'm looking forward to the third book. "

" An exciting second book in this series -- I love the characters and their fierce determination to help each other. I imagine the statues featured in the story actually exist throughout London -- it would be cool to see them in person! Jim Dale is a fabulous narrator as always -- he creates such unique voices for the different characters. "

" So this was violent and not for young readers. but I thought the story line progressed well despite the split story from each of the main characters. "

" This is labeled 'juvenile'...not even young adult. Seems awfully complicated and violent for kids to me. Hmmm. It's definitely a good trilogy though. I recommend the audio version. "

" Great second book in series. Still keeps interest throughout and explores characters more deeply. "

" Same as previous volume in series - enjoyably read by Jim Dale. "

" In this book, the protagonist george must fight three duels or else he dies. "

" Too much profanity for my taste. "

" This book, the second in a series, was just as wonderful as the first. The author has a vivid imagination and storytelling skills to match. "

" I liked the second better than the first. The first was a bit slow for my taste. "

" I listened to this one, as always Jim Dale is a fabulous narrator. The story is as fast paced as the first in the trilogy. Stone statues come to life in a different London that most people know. "

" This sequel blows the first out of the water the plot makes more sense the action scenes are better and its just a better book. And it ends in a way that makes you come back ready for the third. "

" Can't wait to listen to book #3. Jim Dale as narrator in the book-on-tape makes this spectacular. "

" Great continuation of the story. The use of statues coming to life in modern day London is interesting. Ironhand keeps your attention, but again a little too dark and too much strong language in my opinion for kids. "

" I really didn't care for this one as much. The world and the magic are great. It's the bad guy, he was a little to creepy for me. "

" This book will intrigue teens who like fantasy mixed with a bit of mystery. 6th-8th would like this. Boys will like the male protagonist who has to get through many fixes, the fighting-it gets a little gruesome, and girls will like a feisty, witty female protagonist. "

" I like this book so far its just as good as the first... "

" Very creative. Enjoyed it thoroughly! "

" I really enjoyed reading this book! I like the shortish chapters which makes it easy to read. It had enough action and mystery to make it an iteresting read! I can't wait to see how this series ends! "

" I think the book was good read and kept me interested throughout. It is very suspenseful. "

" Interesting idea with statues coming to life and a two-sided battle beginning. Characters are not interesting or unique enough "

" Liked it even better than the first! The growth George and Edie experience through all their trials is so great to see and I love the returning characters -- especially the gunner! "

" I think the book was good read and kept me interested throughout. It is very suspenseful. "

" Too much profanity for my taste. "

" It was a bit scary, and the story was a BIT better than the 1st but still I like the first book more. "

" Better than number 1. Maybe I was used to the writing, maybe I had lower expectations, but either way I liked it. "

" Exciting story, can't wait for the next installment! "

" the end of this book really shocked me it was better than the first and i bet the third is even better "

" This is labeled 'juvenile'...not even young adult. Seems awfully complicated and violent for kids to me. Hmmm. It's definitely a good trilogy though. I recommend the audio version. "

" I listened to this one, as always Jim Dale is a fabulous narrator. The story is as fast paced as the first in the trilogy. Stone statues come to life in a different London that most people know. "

" So this was violent and not for young readers. but I thought the story line progressed well despite the split story from each of the main characters. "

" Incredible second book. It is hard to believe that both books have taken place in only two days. The action is fast paced and the plot is incredible. "

" I really enjoyed reading this book! I like the shortish chapters which makes it easy to read. It had enough action and mystery to make it an iteresting read! I can't wait to see how this series ends! "

" Entertaining, but not brilliant. The audiobook is probably better. But then, most things are better with Jim Dale. "
