About this listen
Fourteen-year-old Ozzy lives near Portland, Oregon, and is desperate for help. His scientist parents have been kidnapped after discovering a formula that enables mind control. Their work was so top secret that Ozzy is afraid to go to the police, but without help, he fears he'll never find his parents. Then he stumbles across a classified ad in the local newspaper that says "Wizard for Hire. Call 555-SPEL." Ozzy has read about wizards in books like Harry Potter, but wizards couldn't actually exist today, could they? After Ozzy meets the wizard Labyrinth - a.k.a. Rin - he's even more skeptical.
Sure, Rin dresses like a wizard, but the short robe and high-top tennis shoes seem unorthodox, as does Rin's habit of writing notes on his shoes and eating breakfast for every meal. Plus, Rin doesn't even cast any magic spells, which means that the unexplained coincidences that start happening around Ozzy are just that - coincidences.
With the help of a robotic talking raven invented by Ozzy's father, a kind and curious girl at school who decides to help Ozzy, and of course, a self-proclaimed wizard who may or may not have a magical wand, Ozzy begins an unforgettable quest that will lead him closer to the answers he desperately seeks about his missing parents.

A very enjoyable story, moving onto next book in the series
Though intended for young people it will also appeal to those young at heart.
Contains many lol moments, and the bird is amusing too.

A fun story with likeable quirky characters!
I'd give this 5 stars but the screaming and yelling absolutely did our heads in, yikes why the screaming narrator? His voice was perfect for the story otherwise.
Very likeable and quirky characters make this a fun and interesting journey in search of a young boys mysterious parents who left him in a secluded well stocked cabin in the woods.
I liked it too as much as my children did.
