About this listen
Prue McKeel’s life is ordinary. At least until her brother is abducted by a murder of crows and taken to the Impassable Wilderness, a dense, tangled forest on the edge of Portland. No one’s ever gone in – or at least returned to tell of it.
So begins an adventure that will take Prue and her friend, Curtis, deep into the Impassable Wilderness. There they uncover a secret world in the midst of violent upheaval - a world full of warring creatures, peaceable mystics, and powerful figures with the darkest intentions. And what begins as a rescue mission becomes something much greater, as the two friends find themselves entwined in a struggle for the very freedom of this wilderness. A wilderness the locals call Wildwood.
Wildwood is a spellbinding tale full of wonder, danger, and magic that juxtaposes the thrill of a secret world and modern city life. Original and fresh yet steeped in classic fantasy, this is a novel could have only come from the imagination of Colin Meloy, celebrated for his inventive and fantastic storytelling as the lead singer of the Decemberists. Wildwood is truly a new classic for the 21st century.

I love Amanda Plummer but...
Stellar book, great characters and plot. But oof, sorry this sounds so awful, I just cannot cope with Amanda Plummer narrating. I couldn't even focus on the story, she was way too extra to the point of constant distraction. I love her too, she is amazing. Just not as an audiobook narrator. So happy that the sequels have a different narrator.

Amazing performance
The story was wonderful and Amanda Plummer brought it to life. Her performance is textured and masterful. We also started to listen to the 2nd book but returned it after listening for 15 minutes. By comparison, the author's narration was incredibly flat.

Love this. Too bad I won't listen to the others.
I read the before long before I ever listened to it. And I loved both. The story is fantastic. Amanda Plummer is an incredible narrator. But the other books in the series are read by the author, who sounds bored in the samples of both sequels. I will not be listening to those.
