Resumen del Editor

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Ernest Cline comes a mostly true tall tale about an unexpected friendship between a young girl and a music-loving colony of bats.

After losing her mother, thirteen-year-old Opal moves in with her uncle Roscoe on the family farm. There, Opal bonds with Uncle Roscoe over music and befriends a group of orphaned, music-loving bats. But just as the farm is starting to feel like home, the bats’ cave is destroyed by a big mining company with its sights set on the farmland next.

If Opal and the bats can fit in anywhere, it’s the nearby city of Austin, home to their favorite music and a host of wonderfully eccentric characters. But with people afraid of the bats and determined to get rid of them, it’ll take a whole lot of courage to prove that this is where the bats—and Opal—belong.

good, cool semi true story

I liked it, the reader was awesome. The story was not as good as his other books, but it being semi true made it really cool.

Keep Austin Weird

Never in a million years did it imagine I’d become a big fan of bats!

This is a fun story. Good for all ages.

A fun look into a new style for Ernest Cline!

Overall rather enjoyed the book. The Epilogue really does this book well too!
I hope this is a book that young readers get there hands on. It is a fun story that injects just enough of 80’s Music/Pop culture that would make them say “huh, I wonder who/what that is?” Potentially introducing the reader to new (old) things that they may enjoy. It could be the spark to ignite an interest in things from that era, all wrapped up into an interesting and fun story.

Interesting book

Not a typical Ernest Cline but a good story especially for kids. I liked the storyline.

Great book

This book was fun and entertaining. Based on the author's earler books, it was different than I expeceted. I loved the story. It was light, uplifting and interesting.

A Tale Worth Tuning In To

A fantastic love letter to the city of Austin that gives us hope for our futures, highlights how different groups can work together and finally shows how sometimes the answer isn’t more technology. A well done story that gives us an amazing soundtrack as well.

Not the norm

I am a big fan of Cline, however this book is way out of the norm for his type of books. I was really looking forward to a science fiction book but this book didn't deliver on that. It is a very good book that I finished in a day but it just wasn't what I expected. Ernest Cline, can we have more books like RP1 and Armada?

Wonderful tale!!

I saw a new Ernest Cline book and got it without even seeing what it was about. I received an amazing surprise. Bridge to bat city is an incredible tale based on real events perfectly narrated I could not have asked for a better story. Truly a masterpiece of great storytelling. Give it a listen I promise you will be very happy you did.

The close line crew

I love this book would read this again I hope you enjoy it to not that love it.
