Middle Grade

This is a middle grade book, and this is the first book in the Silver Arrow series. The audiobook was so good. The narrator of this book is Simon Vance. I do listen to my audiobooks at a faster speed because I feel it is to slow at the normal speed. I feel the narrator had a clear voice and changed voices for the character parts. The total audiobook is just under 4 hours at a regular speed, so it is a shorter audiobook. Now, on to how I feel about the book/story. I really enjoyed this story. The main character is Kate who is 11 years old. There is also talking train and talking animals. All the characters is super developed and I fall in all of the characters. It said it is like "The Chronicles of Narnia" and I have to say I disagree. This book is totally different then the Chronicles of Narnia. I would not say fans of The Chronicles of Narnia would love this book, but I did love this book and I loved the Chronicles of Narnia. This book is a fast moving middle grade book, and It keeps you wanting to read. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.
