Circus Phantasm

By: Naomi P. Cohen

Narrated by: Christopher Klish

Going to the Circus that night was a whim, but it would change their lives forever.

When siblings Emma and Nemo Reeve went to the Circus Phantasm, they expected tantalizing glimpses of magic. Instead, they are drawn out of the cage of secrets they have built and swept away from their small-town lives. Here, their hidden magical talents can flourish. They can travel with fantastical creatures. They may even have found - at last - a home.

But the Ringmaster has his own dark secrets. His past is coming to haunt him, and now danger stalks them all. Emma and Nemo must determine who to trust, before the Circus unravels, the performers become prisoners, and their growing talents turn them into targets for a greater enemy than they have ever imagined.

Fun!

A fun fantasy meets real world adventure! I enjoyed it immensely. Very well read!! The reader makes it so much more real.

Narrator was the highlight

Perfectly captured the irritated inners of a teenager. Well-spoken and read. The adjectives hit just right.

so you want to runaway and join a circus?

Circus Phantasm by Naomi P. Cohen is a whimsical tale of a brother and sister who runaway from home to join a circus for gifted individuals.

In this world people with powers ar known as blessed. and you can either join the Circus Phantasm or be enslaved by the evil company.

Emma and Nemo have no idea how close they were to the latter fate when they ran off to join the Circus.

This book really does have it all. Unicorns, mermaids, shape shifters, and dragons. If you love contemporary or urban fantasy, then this book has everything your looking for.

while I did enjoy this story on it's own, and It is complete, it still feels like a pilot episode. There I,s so much more that can be done in this story world. I certainly hopes the author revisits it in a future book.

The Narrator Christopher Klish, does a great job of reading. He does a different voice for every character and he does a fantastic job of emoting with his voice. If you are looking for a narrator that makes it sound like a full cast audio then Klish is one to follow.

Circus Fantastic

The story was great. A little hard to follow at times but easy to get drawn in and hold your attention right there.
Fantastic choice in narrator. He brought this book to life in so many ways including voice changes. I felt each character in a way I don't normally feel them when a book is read by one person. The majestic and fantasy world that was created is incredibly written. I literally felt like I was transported from my car to a world you could never see with your eyes but drawn from your imagination.
