Top notch!
I love Jonathan Stroud's elegant ghost stories, and his specialty: a present where something has happened in the past to alter history.
The books about Lockwood and just keep getting better and better, and the narrator in the last two books is very good.
This is pure joy (in the shape of a well-told and well-narrated adventurous ghost story) from beginning to end!

Great story with just the right amount of ingredients
The narration was pitch perfect and really brought the characters to life. I can’t wait to listen to the next instalment

A completely brilliant series
I was aware of J Stroud's awesomeness after finding the Bartolomeus books, so was prepared to buy the Lockwood books with no trepidation.
Gorgeous writing, and I hope there will be many more books in the series and indeed anything else Mr Stroud chooses to give us.

Great stuff probably the funniest entry so far.
I continue to enjoy this series. It’s clear that Jonathan Stroud is really flying here.
Lots of great spooky set-pieces and the cast of characters that continue to delight.
Emily Beven has really settled in to her role here to. She is great. Great comic timing but can also deliver the emotional, dramatic and exciting stuff to.
Loved it.

I really enjoyed the book
However I think it was a little unfair to have one reader who had built up the world In the first books to then replace them with someone who made a lot of similar voices for all the characters which was confusing and kind of grating instead of different and distinct voices in the other books. I still enjoyed it I just think my rating reflects this issue

Great
Getting better and better, the end of this book confirms what I have always thought, so looking forward to reading the next instalment to see if my other theories are correct! Narration is very good in my opinion!

5 stars all round
I don’t understand the negative comments about the reader; for me she brings the story alive in every possible way. Humorous but serious when necessary. First class!

Amazing Story
The books just get better and better. The plot gets thicker and thicker!
The reader Emily Bevan is still bad. Marginally better than in book 3.
