Some said the us was better than the first one. I enjoyed the first more but it was still enjoyable. Look forward to the third. Each one is a 14 hour listen, so that’s saying something. The characters are fun, and I love their adventures.

This made me sad. I tried to listen to this as an audiobook and abandoned it. I loved Wildwood, loved Meloy's tale and the characters he created. But this one was so so boring. I abandoned it early because it was way too heavy on exposition, description, and way too light on action. I don't think kids who liked Wildwood will make it through, either. But they might surprise me.

A wonderful second story in this series! I've been nervous to read the second book because I loved Wildwood so much. This story expanded in the world in a fascinating way. I loved the new character additions and I'm excited to see what comes next. Meloy is an excellent narrator for the audiobook. I was completely transported into Wildwood!
