Summary
The childhood of Chrestomanci. Everything in this book happens at least twenty-five years before the story told in Charmed Life…
Discovering that he has nine lives and is destined to be the next ‘Chrestomanci’ is not part of Christopher’s plans for the future: he’d much rather play cricket and wander around his secret dream worlds. But he soon finds that destiny is difficult to avoid, and that having more than the usual number of lives is pretty inconvenient – especially when you lose them as easily as he does!
Then an evil smuggler, known only as The Wraith, threatens the ways of the worlds and forces Christopher to take action…

Another Wonderful DWJ Book
Chronologically the first Chrestomanci book (though I think it is better to read "Charmed Life first) and a wonderful book.
I only have two problems with this version, firstly it is abridged which is a shame, secondly the narrator who is mostly good makes one or two of the characters have annoying whiney voices which, for me, grated.
As a whole I like this audiobook, but whether I will listen to it again I'm not sure.
However, let's have more DWJ books please Audible :)

Excellent Story well narrated.
This is a really good story, well paced, likable characters and a strong storyline. Not as good as the full version but well abridged. Samuel West does a brilliant job narrating.

Abridged Version
I love the book and was thrilled to find it on audible so I could play it for my children on car journeys. The narrator is excellent however I was very disappointed to discover that this is an abridged version of the book and it is therefore significantly shorter and less rich and detailed than the original. What a disappointment and I wish I could find a recording of the full version as it is such a wonderful story.
