Elfhome, Book 4

By: Wen Spencer

Narrated by: Tanya Eby

Even though they attend a school of gifted students in New York City, child geniuses Louise Mayer and her twin sister Jillian have always felt alone in the world, isolated by their brilliance. Shortly before their ninth birthday, they make an amazing discovery. They're not alone. Their real mother was astronaut Esme Shenske and their father was the famous inventor, Leonardo Dufae. They have an older sister, Alexander, living on the planet of Elfhome, and four siblings still in cryogenic storage at the fertility center. There's only one problem: The frozen embryos are scheduled to be destroyed within six months. The race is on to save their baby brother and sisters. As a war breaks out on Elfhome and riots start in New York City, the twins use science and magic to plow over everything standing in their way. But when they come face to face with an ancient evil force, they're soon in over their heads in danger.

In some ways, this is one of the best in the serie

First, it will help to know that this one takes place almost exclusively on earth, and actually begins before Tinker. If you had to read it before any of the others, you could, but why? It covers a longer timeline, and so ends just before the end of Elfhome, suggesting that the two storylines are about to merge. Oh, the possibilities.
Tanya Eby does a really great job, especially with Joy and the babies' voices. I look forward to future books in this series.

Best book in the series!!!!

Funny exciting and slightly nail biting really enjoyed it and the narrator is a perfect combination with this story.

Excellent

The dialogue was very lively, an amazing mixture of outward social chatter & interior insights. While the girls seemed unstoppable the continual view of Louise’s worried musings & fears grounds the story. However it looks like a long wait for a continuation of the adventure. Highly recommended.

Loved it!

I savored this book as long as I could. Great job Wen!! Great job Tanya!! Books! Want more!! Nom-Nom!!

I missed the Tinker story but this was really good

Now I have to wait for another book and I really thought this was the end. That is my only complaint! This was a great book and a very easy read!
