In this middle-grade fantasy, perfect for fans of Nevermoor and The
School for Good and Evil series, humor, heart, and a symphony of magic
take center stage.
Amelia Jones has always dreamed of attending the Mystwick School of
Musicraft, where the world's most promising musicians learn to create
musical magic. Unfortunately, Amelia botches her audition and her dream
comes crashing down--until the school agrees to give her a second
chance. Amelia vows to do whatever it takes to make her dream come true.
However, between a teacher who really dislikes her and a roommate who
wants to see her expelled, Amelia has her hands full. On top of that,
supernatural powers are threatening Mystwick, and Amelia might be the
only person who can save the school...but only if she can remain true to
herself. The combination of Jessica Khoury's storytelling mastery, the
highly-nuanced performance by award-winning narrator Suzy Jackson, and
the songs, musical interludes, and original compositions included in
this audio (all performed by the NJSO Youth Orchestras) makes it a treat
for all fans of the fantasy genre.
"Toe-tapping fantasy mixes music and mystery."
