I wasn’t quite sure what to expect when I started this book. The cover is what first drew my attention to the book and the description sounded intriguing. It turned out to be a pleasant surprise. While the story is predictable for the most part there are a couple of little surprises along the way that keep things interesting. I wish it had been a little more unpredictable with a few more surprises though. Overall it’s an entertaining, engaging and enjoyable listen as well as a good start to a series.

Even though it’s a door and a key I couldn’t help but picture it as a wardrobe cabinet connecting the two worlds.

I’m curious to see where the story will go from here. Kingdoms, Princes, Princess’s, Kings, Dragons, a door between worlds and a magic key with a mind of it’s own. Things could get interesting.

Good, but predictable characters.

Sarah Puckett did a really good job with the narration. Pleasant voice that is easy to listen to for long periods of time. Clearly spoken with a nice even pace. The pace of her narration and the pauses fit the story and Alison’s character. Her character voices were good. Both male and female. She was able to bring the characters, their emotions and the story to life through her narration. Very enjoyable.
