Summary
The automa Pinocchio has always been duty-bound to serve in the floating palace of Venice’s emperor. So when Pinocchio finds himself locked in a trunk and delivered to a new master — a wanted criminal and alchemist named Geppetto — he is curious about everything around him. But most curious is the way Pinocchio seems to be changing from a wooden servant into a living, human boy. Before Geppetto and Pinocchio can uncover the mystery surrounding the automa’s transformation, Pinocchio is stolen away. Determined to find Geppetto again, Pinocchio begins a harrowing journey across the empire, where danger in the form of half-beast outlaws and winged airmen abounds for a lost automa.
Meanwhile, Princess Lazuli, the daughter of the ruler of a magical kingdom called Abaton, is also on a quest through the emperor’s territory. Her father, Prester John, has been captured by the Venetian Empire, and Lazuli is desperate to rescue him. With the emperor’s airmen closing in fast, Lazuli learns that the only hope for saving her father — and her beloved home — lies in Pinocchio and Geppetto. In a masterful reimagining of Pinocchio, John Claude Bemis weaves an enchanting, thrilling adventure that at its heart is the story of one boy’s quest to discover what it means to be a friend, a son, and a hero.

I thought the book was fun to listen to. I can tell it was going to another book. I would recommend it for a family to listen to.

I actually only listed to the first two chapters —-i am excited when listening because of the sound effects. Its the most different type of audiobook that ive purchased. I been searching for a whimsical story line since i love to daydream . I have a feeling ill be in love. I never EVER enjoyed the story of Pinocchio. But this has a rich and lush push to the tale that deepens the curious and daydreaming minds.
