Book 3—Lucinda's Secret
Things at the Spiderwick estate are getting completely out of hand. If being attacked by a band of marauding goblins and almost eaten by a bridge troll wasn't enough, how Jared is being harassed by Thimbletack, the house boggart, and Simon has a very hungry griffin recuperating in the carriage house. Mallory is convinced that the only way to stop the madness is to chuck the Guide. But that's not an option. With all kinds of creatures after them, the Guide is the only protection the Grace kids have. If they could just figure out why all of Faerie wants the Guide. Only one person can help solve this mystery—their crazy old Aunt Lucinda.
Book 4—the Ironwood Tree
The Grace kids, Jared, Simon, and Mallory, are at it again. Be sure to listen in to see what happens!

      Containing both LUCINDA'S SECRET and THE IRONWOOD TREE, this latest audio installment relates the Mallory children's further adventures with faerie folk. They learn that their aunt is in a home because her addiction to faerie food drives her nearly mad and also conclude that Arthur Spiderwick may still be alive. When the twins' older sister is been captured by dwarves, they try to rescue her and learn as well about the evil Mulgarath. Mark Hamill may seem an unlikely choice for vocalizing young characters, but he manages a solid performance. His real talent is in his characterizations of fantastic creatures, whom he makes both scary and entertaining. J.M.S. (c) AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine

      Gr 3-6-In these two books of the five title Spiderwick Chronicles series (S & S, 2003/04) by Tony DiTerlizzi and Holly Black, the creatures of Faerie are still seeking Arthur Spiderwick's Field Guide to the Fantastical World Around You, which continues to bring all manner of trouble for the Grace children. Mark Hamill's (Star Wars) clear and well-paced vocal talents add much to this production. Alternately carefree and foreboding, childishly innocent and ominously malevolent, Hamill effortlessly transitions his vocal characterizations from earnest children to crazy old Aunt Lucinda and evil elves, while drawing the whole together with a pleasantly lilting narration. Fans of Lemony Snicket will especially appreciate the suspense and mystery of this fantastical audiobook.-Leigh Ann Rumsey, Penn Yan Academy, NY
