The Magicians of Caprona Audiobook

" A bit of a let down after Lives of Christopher Chant. It took about 70 pages to get into it. Once I really got into it I realized there were only about 10 pages left and sure enough, everything got nicely tied up in those 10 pages. It was like she got tired of writing so she wrapped it up as quickly as she could. "

" Not as good as the other Chrestomanci books. "

" Once again, a very enjoyable read. Diana Wynne Jones is truly a master of light fantasy :) "

" Definitely not as good as Volume 1. Still worth reading, though. "

" Witch Week is the stronger story, but both are fun. "

" Could not get into it. "

" Same as the other one, the first in this series. It feels like the author doesn't know how to finish a story, and just writes two novellas and sticks them in one book. Anyone else get that feeling? "

" Was pleasantly surprised to find these books different to volume 1. These stories were both very well written and had an amazing cast of characters. A pleasure to read. "

" I love the Chrstomanci series. So when I say I hated Volume 2, that's saying something. "

" Cats, inquisitors, and Chrestomanci oh my! "

" Can't wait to get the next book in the series. "

" I love Diana Wynne Jones. I adore this Chrestomanci series. "

" I liked The Magicians of Caprona, but I didn't finish Witch Week, because it was a bit tedious. "

" The first Story in this volume Is good. I enjoy stories based on big close-knit families. I really quite liked the second story. Anyone who is a fan of Dianna's other stories will enjoy these as well. "

" I've owned this book for years and have read it several times. It is always as good as it was the first time. I think I will soon need to replace my copy because I have read it so much that the binding is starting to die. "

" I liked it but not as much as the first volume. "

" fun books, in the likeness of harry potter "

" An addicting series you just cannot put down. "

" I liked the Magicians of Caprona better than Witch Week but both were interesting. "

" I'm not really getting into it right now. I think I am more of a murder mystery book person. "

" Also very nice, as was the first. She's built such a romantic little town~ the pages flew by! "

" I first read Chrestomanci when I was in middle school. Re-reading it is like visiting an old friend. Diana Wynne Jones was a master of language, but her true gift lay with making her young characters feel real. "

" "Magicians of Caprona was very odd and slightly creepy. Will not be re-reading that one. "Witch Week" was much better but I very much like "Volume 1" far better. "

" "The Chronicles of Chrestomanci, Volume 2: The Magicians of Caprona / Witch Week by Diana Wynne Jones (2001)" "

" I loved Witch Week, but I have a hard time making it through Magicians of Caprona. My husband is the opposite. So, I think it's just a taste issue. "

" Love, love, love the Chronicles of Chrestomanci. "

" First Diana Wynne Jones book I've read, and so amazing. Characters are interesting and the dialogue is great. What I most love though is the way the author writes, and why didn't I know about these books before?I cant wait to make my way through many more of her books!!! "

" One of my favourite DWJ books - although it's so hard to pick favourites. But I was always very fond of this as a child - I loved how singing was tied up with magic, and the whole Romeo and Juliet thing she's got going on in this book. "

" #3 happier than Romeo & Juliet "

" Lovely bit of fiction. Perfect for a tween, or a bit younger looking for a fun romp. "

" Wow, I just realized I went a whole year without reading any Diana Wynne Jones! Time to catch up. ;)I'm wavering somewhere between a 3 and 4 on this one. It's a quick, charming read, typical DWJ. I'm really enjoying the Chrestomanci series so far. "

" Good fantasy, but didn't quite live up to my expectations. It probably took halfway through the book, before I was really interested in the story. Nothing like CHARMED LIFE, which is my favorite by Diana Wynne Jones. "

" Another good book in the series. I liked the feuding witch families, and though Chrestomanci was once again missing in action for a large part of the book, I still enjoyed the characters remaining well enough to get along without him. "

" A slow start, but the last half of the book was very interesting. "
