The Cabinet of Wonders: The Kronos Chronicles: Book I Audiobook

" Very intriguing and full of adventure. "

" I had a hard time getting into it (though I don't know why because the beginning was equally interesting) but when I finally was able to sit down in peace and read it for a long time I got really into it and I think it was absolutely amazing!!!! It is now one of my favorite books!! "

" i thought it was ok...sometimes not a page turner...but it was ok! "

" Pretty good, if a bit uneven. A complex story, slightly dark, mixing Eastern European Renaissance history with some magic and myth. Looking forward to the next one. "

" Best youth/young adult start of a series I have ever read. I'm so excited to read the next one. I love that the setting is not in the USA. I enjoyed the brusk turns from what we all believe to be reality to magic and fantasy elements. It was enjoyable to see the author give details and not need to over-explain them. It's a fictional story that is a wonderful journey of a daughter who wants nothing more than to give her father back his eyes. "

" I originally got this book for my pre-teen daughter. She thought the beginning was weird and so didn't continue on. I read it to prove her wrong and I REALLY like it! It's a fun read, great imagination. I'm looking forward to reading the sequel! "

" It has 'cabinet' and 'wonders' in the title, two of my favorite words! I really enjoyed this book, looking forward to reading the rest of the series "

" This book was like a break for me. Sometimes I get tired of reading extrenuous amount of higer reading levels so it's nice to take a break every onece in a while. "

" Sophie read this one and couldn't put it down...maybe I'll get to it one of these days. "

" This is a fun filled book about a girl who tries to get her father's eyes back from the prince. She travels to the main city from a town called Okno. She meets a friend along the way that helps her alot. If you like great Fantasy-Fiction books this is a great book for you! "

" I'm about half way through this book and I love it. Petra does things I can't even imagine or think of in the first place. "

" I'm always delighted when I come across an original children's fantasy novel. Not only is The Cabinet of Wonders creatively plotted, it is magnificently written! Definitely worth a look. 4.5 stars here! "

" What a unique premise... Petra must sneak into a palace in Prague to steal her Father's eyes back from the Prince... Quoi? Still, ghost fingers, acid sweating dye mistresses, and talking tin spiders make this such a delightful read. Can't wait for "The Celestial Globe" "

" Quite an adventure. "

" It was amazing! Oficially named my fav series! "

" It's okay. Marin keeps getting bored, so I don't know if we'll finish this one. "

" This was a random find, but still tons of fun. When is the next one coming out? "

" Very cute book !!A spider and takes u on an fun adventure!!!! "

" It was a little slow to start, and it dragged in places, but the concept and the story were entertaining. Not a mainstream book, but for the right kid, a great read. "

" I quite enjoyed this book. A very steampunk feel to it. A fantasy that is sort of reality based in Victorian Hungary. Lots of machines and magic. A great fiesty heroine (Petra)who is clever and saves the day in the long run. Also a good hero in Neel the young gypsy boy. Looking forward to #2 "

" Loved this book so much. Good clean fun "

" A delightful read. I became quite fond of Astrophil, the mechanical spider. "

" This wondrous blend of history and imagination introduces us to Petra, a young girl who goes on a quest to recover her father's eyes, which have been stolen by the prince. Action, adventure, subtlety, and a main character you won't be able to forget. Fabulous! "

" Good little read and I'm looking forward to the next ones in the series. An intriguing adventure novel in a fantastical, magical world. Strong characters and a good plot. "

" good start I liked the book as a whole but the characters dident develope that much good book but little too drawn out. "

" This Bluebonnet nominee was an interesting mix of fantasy and history. I hope to see more by this author! "

" the series are awesome . read it! "

" The first book in a series, it definitely left you hanging at the end of the book. "

" Very intriguing and full of adventure. "

" Great Book! Really shares a great thick texture of adventure. I really enjoyed this. "

" It's okay. Marin keeps getting bored, so I don't know if we'll finish this one. "

" Whimsical, amusing, and fresh. This book is a must read; there is nothing quite like this colorful novel. It puts you on the scene of the little-explored Czech and Romany cultures; brand-new to our American eyes. "

" Fantasy, set during Hapsburg empire. "

" Petra's father builds the world's finest astronomical clock for the prince of Bohemia, and in return, the evil prince steals his eyes. Petra and her pet tin spider head to the city to steal her father's eyes back... "

" It took me awhile to get into it, but then I liked it quite a bit. "

" Excellent book. A great blend of history, fantasy, adventure, and intrigue. I can't wait to read the 2nd book, "The Celestial Globe". This is going to be a great series. "
