The Alchemyst by Michael Scott

4.0

I listened to this book on CD and it was fabulous, if for the actor alone who read it. I also just really noted the storytelling and the use of the different historical and mythological creatures in ways that I hadn't seen before. The boy teenager (15 years old) annoys the heck out of me, but he is 15, and I hated book 5 of Harry Potter because 15 year old Harry bothered me too much, so I'm starting to think that 15 year old boys just aren't my thing. But other than that, I'm really loving the series. I got the Magician on CD immediately after finishing the Alchemist.
