Oracles of Delphi Keep Audiobook

" Definitely better than Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Not sure if I can identify it as better than all other Harry Potter books. However, this is the beginning of a series and time will tell. "

" "Oracles of Delphi Keep" was a particularly frustrating read because, while an interesting concept, most of the first 200 pages were pure infodumping on the author's part and the characters weren't engaging enough to keep my attention from wandering during the first half of the book. I'm usually a fairly fast reader, but "Oracles" took me ages to finish because I had to keep putting it down because it was terribly boring. The book does pick up quite a bit in the back half and I really got into the storyline within the last 100 pages. It ends on an fairly intriguing cliffhanger, so hopefully the author will be able to keep the momentum going with the sequel. "

" right from the beginning I was kept on edge and in suspense. "

" We listned to this on audio and it was a real edge of your seat adventure, and a clever mystery. "

" Both Harper and I really enjoyed this book. Wish she would write the next book in the series! "

" Really liked this book. If you like Harry Potter, C.S. Lewis, Madeline L'Engle (or your kids do), then I highly recommend it. Fast paced and smartly written for pre-teens on up, but good enough for the grown-ups to enjoy, too. "

" I enjoyed this more than I thought I would. I've since tried other boos by this author, the psychic eye series. "

" Definitely interesting, i Want to read the sequel "

" This was a really really good book. However, the subsequent novels are taking a very, very long time! I read the first of seven (I think) almost three years ago, and there's only been one after that. But if they're going to be this good, it's worth the wait! "

" This was another book we listed to in the car this summer. Again it was a hit with the young ones and the teens. A very fun book full of adventure and plotting. "

" This was written for teen boys, but this woman adult really enjoyed it, as well as the others in the series. I can't wait for the last one to tie it all together. "

" A great and gripping story with great characters. I'll definitely read any others that she writes. The ending was wide open so you know there will be more. "

" I liked this book, but for some reason I didn't finish. I'm not sure why. I think summer break came and I left the book at school on accident. "

" Yay, I finally finished it! *sobs in relief* "

" this was such a great and excting book!! So adventrous to and a great ending cant wait to read the second book!!! "

" I am definitely going to read the remaining books in this series! "

" Well-written and fun. I loved the characters, I loved the mythology, and I can't wait to get my hands on the next one. "

" Great read! I love Victoria Laurie's Psychic Eye series for adults so I interested in knowing what her book for kids would be like. It was full of adventure, mythology, and mysticism. English orphans and hellhounds and magic portals and warring tribes, oh my! I can't wait to read the next one! "

" I enjoyed the way Ms. Laurie combined elements of fantasy with the historical fiction. It really grabbed me right in. I think that 5th through 8th graders would like this book. "

" Edison and I listened to this together. Kept both of us interested :) "

" A very entertaining book, specially if you like stories that combined a bit of mystery and ancient civilizations... "

" This is as good as Percy Jackson. "

" Children on a quest, in a mix of pre-Nazi England and ancient mythology. "

" As someone who reads quite a few children's books, I feel that this book was excellant. I have actually gotten a few reluctant readers to read this and now they come see me at least 3 times a month for new recommendations. (If i forgot to mention, I work at Barnes & Noble) "

" I thought it was well written and entertaining. I felt it was too long... "

" I found this book in the children's section of the library, but I really liked it. As a fantasy adventure set in England among orphans, it smacked of Harry Potter--not as good, but good. "

" I thought it was very adventurous and kept you at the edge of your seat. "

" listening in the car. it is awesome "

" really well written and paced perfectly. There are a lot of events that make the reader really interested. i think this book opened up a whole new different type of fantasy adventure. "

" This is as good as Percy Jackson. "

" it started off kinda slow, but otherwise good. "

" right from the beginning I was kept on edge and in suspense. "

" Another great book.... a little long winded at times but enjoyable all the same.... "

" This book was absolutely phenomenal!!! I could not put it down. It made the reader feel like you were right in the book with the kids at Delphi Keep. Laurie is an amazing author loved it!! "

" Great beginning to a series...I had two Laurie adult mysteries sitting in my TBR when I picked this up. I didn't even realize it was that Laurie until halfway through this book. I still haven't read the adult mysteries but I definitely will. I look forward to book 2! "

" Loved this kids book. It was like a young Indiana Jones; not always logical, but very fun to read. "
