About this listen
In a city that runs on a dwindling supply of magic, a young boy is drawn into a life of wizardry and adventure. Conn should have dropped dead the day he picked Nevery's pocket and touched the wizard's locus magicalicus, a stone used to focus magic and work spells. But for some reason he did not. Nevery finds that interesting, and he takes Conn as his apprentice on the provision that the boy find a locus stone of his own. But Conn has little time to search for his stone between wizard lessons and helping Nevery discover who - or what - is stealing the city of Wellmet's magic.

One of my favourite childhood books in audio form
This series is one of my comfort reads, and I love having it in audio as well! It doesn’t have the fun extras in the physical books, but the story shines as ever.
It took me a while to warm to the narrator, but I got used to his voice after a while. I think the problem is that I’ve had the voices of the characters in my head for around a decade, so takes a while to adjust to someone else’s interpretation, He did a decent range of character voices, which was a pleasant surprise - some narrators are terrible at it.
I always hold out hope that Sarah Prineas will bring out a 5th book in the series as she mentioned on her blog previously, but for now I’ll enjoy the current books. I definitely recommend this series to anyone with kids who love adventure and fantasy, or adults who like cosy family with found family, interesting characters and fun hijinks.
