Chronicles of Whetherwhy: The Age of Enchantment

By: Anna James

Narrated by: Mike Grady

An instant #1 New York Times bestseller!

A brand new magical fantasy series from bestselling author Anna James, filled with seasonal magic and exciting adventure, starring twins Juniper and Rafferty as they brave their new magical abilities, grown from the changing seasons. Perfect for fans of Skandar and the Unicorn Thief, Impossible Creatures, and Greenwild!

In Whetherwhy, everyone has magic inside them–grown from the changing seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter. But a rare few are Enchanters: people born with magic in their bones, who can wield all four seasons of magic.

When Juniper discovers she is an Enchanter, she must leave behind everything she knows to begin studying at the Thistledown Academy. And when her twin brother, Rafferty, begins an apprenticeship at a nearby bookbinder to be close to her, he too has adventures of his own.

As Juniper learns how to wield enchantment and hone her magic, Rafferty becomes involved with a mysterious secret society that meets after dark. Monsters are creeping out of the shadows and dangers lurk in unexpected places. Amid night markets and magic lessons, the twins realize there is more to enchantment than they ever imagined. And when dangerous monsters attack, the adventure that follows brings Juniper's and Rafferty's paths together again in ways they could never have expected . . .

I loved this book I hope there will be a sequel soon and the story had good climax

Incredible storytelling

Anna James is the best storyteller of the mystical world of Whetherwhy. Feels like I'm reading Harry Potter and The Chronicles of Narnia. Even though I finished her Pages and Co series, this new book transported me to a new world immersed full of magic and seasons. Excited to read the most of the mystical journeys to come in this new series

Good start!

This book is off to a good start! I really liked the concept and the characters . I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because I could see where the story was trying to go from early on and It just seemed like the book took a bit long to get there in my opinion. I understand the book is a series, but even still it was slowish . I don’t want to give away too much so I will leave it at that .
But, it’s definitely worth -a l isten !
