Now a major motion picture from LAIKA, the studio behind Coraline.

Narrated by Amanda Plummer, this is the first book in the New York Times best-selling fantasy series full of magic, wonder, and danger from Colin Meloy, lead singer of the highly celebrated band the Decemberists, and Carson Ellis, the award-winning illustrator of Du Is Tak and Home.

Wildwood captivates readers with the wonder and thrill of a secret world within the landscape of a modern city. It feels at once firmly steeped in the classics of children's literature and completely fresh.

In Wildwood, Prue and her friend Curtis 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.

The bestselling trilogy from Colin Meloy consists of Wildwood, Under Wildwood, and Wildwood Imperium.

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.

I love Amanda Plummer but...

I really enjoyed the plot and characters. The setting in Portland adds to the surreal atmosphere of being a fantasy story but set in a real place with real landmarks mentioned.

I was not a fan of the narrator choice. Personally, Amanda plummer was maybe not the best choice as her narration style adds emphasis in weird parts of her sentences. She also kind of departs from showcasing the nuances in the characters emotions when talking. For example, Pru could be annoyed with Curtis in the stories dialogue, but Amanda doesn’t usually replicate that annoyance when narrating so I found I had to mentally remind myself what the story was trying to convey. It’s hard to explain in a review, but if you listen to the audio book you might pick up what I’m trying to say.

It wasn’t the biggest deal, but I just found it a little distracting to the story.

Great story and whimsically fun!

The wildwood series is fantastic, but boy oh boy did the narrator of this book suck the joy out of it. She managed to make all the emotions and dialogue seem simultaneously utterly obnoxious and astoundingly flat, which I guess is kind of a feat in itself, but maybe not one you want to experience while listening to an audiobook (especially not one with lots of emotion and dialogue like wildwood has). I’m really hopeful the rest of the series has a different narrator.

Great story, poorly told

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.

Amazing performance
