The second audio book in the series is even better than the first, with a lot more action, but the same perfect pacing and tale-like writing style of Tamora Pierce. While in the first book the four children got to know each other, in this book they fully become the circle. The audio book quality is the same great one, with a voice actor for each character and sound effects, plus of course Tamora Pierce as the narrator, which makes it doubly vivid. I got it on audible and will keep listening to the series like that. Thoroughly enjoyed the tale, their fight against the pirates and how they become friends despite them being so very different from each other. Wonderful book again!

An enjoyable series so far, with the overarching message being that the real magic is the friends that we make along the way. Definitely written for kids, but a bit darker than the first book. My only real complaint is that it feels like parts are very rushed at times, which leaves some parts unexplained or not as fleshed out as they could be.
