Magic Kingdom for Sale - Sold!: Magic Kingdom of Landover, Book 1 Audiobook (Unabridged)

" 3 1/2 stars. I read this book because Terry Brooks is my husbands favorite author, and although this is not my normal genre I did enjoy it. It was a slower read than I thought it would be, but I think it was because there was so much to set up in the series. I really liked the characters and because of them I am going to continue reading the series. "

" Funny, terrifying, well written. Fist book of series. Surprising solution. Great start! Good book when you are feeling down. "

" Loved this book, and wish I had read it when I was much younger. I thought the concept of a fantasy kingdom accessible by a hiking path in the mountains of Virginia was a very original concept, and the characters and settings in this book made it an enjoyable read. Looking forward to the future volumes in this series. "

" I loved all of this series! Very entertaining read, just loved the character, especially Abernathy,Qwester Thews and Bunion! "

" My husband is a huge Terry Brooks fan and recommended this book to me. I listened to the audio book version and probably enjoyed it more because of it. The concept of the story is pretty far-fetched but the characters are interesting and the dialogue is full of great one liner quips. "

" One of my favorite summer afternoon reads "

" Good attempt at a humerous fantasy.. "

" This book started out slow and I didn't like it all that much. But towards the middle it picked up pace and by the end I really liked it. I've gotten the rest of the series put on my MP3 player and am looking forward to reading the rest. "

" It's fun! "

" A tribute to poor grammar, the editor should be hanged. "

" Fun book. Enjoyed it a lot. "

" So much fun, so easy to read after nothing but Game of Thrones for months on end. "

" This was recommended to me and I found it as a free kindle download so I gave it a read. It was an entertaining light read, but I think I'm just in the mood for books with more meat to them right now. "

" I had a really hard time getting into this book, but a little over half way through I started to enjoy it. I'm looking forward to reading the rest. . . "

" Ok...so I haven't read this book since 4th grade but I seriously remember it being awesome...I need to read it again. "

" Stuck the first book out, but couldn't go any farther. Just not for me. "

" Very different. An original story "

" I've read this one at least 3 times. "

" Grade A "

" Fun fantasy. The theme of reinventing yourself was timely. Will read others in the series "

" Easy and nice reading, it's not something amazing but it kept me reading till the end. I will read the other too at some point. "

" The Landover books were never my favorites, but there are some fun ideas. "

" If you're under the age of 16, then this is a great book! I loved 'Magic Kingdom' when I was a teenager - and I was totally surprised by the premise. A lot of fun! (Thank you, Terry Brooks, for all the fun teenie books... hey, that rhymes!) "

" This was a fun book to read. "

" Re-read December 2012. Still great! "

" Slow and depressing. Never finish it. "

" I got this as a free kindle book and was delighted by it. A fairly predictable story, but set in a fun and creative world. "

" Wonderful fairytale, I look forward to the rest in the series. "

" My love for Terry Brooks started with this book. The formula is simple: leave it all behind and start a new life ... with wizards, witches, dragons, and many other strange creatures. It's pure fantasy and for me it means pure joy. "

" I remember reading this as a kid. Back then I loved it. Haven't looked at it in years, so no promises on quality. ;) I barely remember the story, but I do remember enjoying it. "

" I've read this one at least 3 times. "

" Cute story, fast read. A referral from a coworker. The funny thing is that I brought it home to read and my boyfriend recognize the book as something he read when he was around 12 years old! "

" Borrowed from library, couldn't get into it (I loved the premise but it kind of meandered or just... i don't remember.. not that great main character, I guess? something just didn't work for me) and had to give it back before I finished. "

" This book was great fun! One amazing adventure follows another in this epic fantasy. Every time the hero overcomes an obstacle, another one looms on the horizon. The characters are quirky and diverse and the plot has so many twists and turns, I almost got dizzy. "

" Did you ever want to check out of this world and into another and start over? This is an adventuresome fantasy tale of someone who did and Mr. Brooks writes it so well you feel like you have. One of those you don't want to put down and can't wait to get to the next one in the series. "

" This was a fun book to read and I plan on reading the rest of the series "

" Ben Holiday buys a magic kingdom with a few problems. "

" I loved this book. It was an entertaining trip into another world with likable characters and an imaginative setting. "
