Story5 out of 5 stars 24
Darkfall marks the beginning of a stunning trilogy from one of Australia's leading writers of fantasy. After the death of her parents and her beloved instructor, Wind, Glynn devotes herself to the care of her sick twin sister, feeling her own life to be unimportant. One night, during a midnight swim, she is swept across the Void to the troubled watery world of Keltor, through a portal created to summon the mythical Unraveller. What is the mysterious connection between Glynn's world and Keltor? And why does the man who rescued her from the waves bear an eerie resemblance to Wind?

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

Award-winning author Isobelle Carmody applies her talent for adventure and suspense to a contemporary suburban setting and an offbeat, lovable cast of characters. Are Alyzon's new abilities a blessing...or a curse? Alyzon Whitestarr doesn't take after her musically talented father or her nocturnal, artistic mother. In fact, she's the most normal member of a very eccentric family...until the day that an accident leaves her more unique than she ever could have dreamed.

Once, there were four worlds, nestled like pages in a book, each pulsing with fantastical power and connected by a single city: London. Until the magic grew too fast and forced the worlds to seal the doors between them in a desperate gamble to protect their own. The few magicians who could still open the doors grew more rare as time passed and now, only three Antari are known in recent memory—Kell Maresh of Red London, Delilah Bard of Grey London, and Holland Vosijk, of White London.

Merlin wakes to a world that is utterly changed. She has no memory aside from a name whispered to her by one of the strange voices in her mind and the knowledge that she is being hunted. She is determined to learn what happened to her and to her world, but the way forward is full of pitfalls, and she is swept up by the renegade Scatterlings and drawn into their rebellion against the all-powerful Citizen Gods.
Publisher's Summary
In a world struggling back from the brink of apocalypse, life is harsh. But for Elspeth Gordie, born with enhanced mental abilities that would see her sterilised or burned if discovered, it is also dangerous.
There is only survival by secrecy, and so she determines never to use her forbidden powers. But it is as if they have their own imperative, and their use inevitably brings her to the attention of the totalitarian Council that rules the Land....

Love this series
I read the paper copy of this book years ago. When I saw it as an audiobook I was overjoyed and it didn’t disappoint. Having the actual author narrating it was brilliant because you know she knows how these characters are meant to sound. Can’t wait to continue listening.

Very enjoyable
Have read book years ago but enjoyed audio version. The 4 for performance was due to chapter numbers out of sync, chapter on screen would say 15 but voice would say 14.
Actual performance of voice was very good.

As this was my first time reading, or should I say listening it was inwombing.
Thank you Isobelle for your imagination takes me to a place a budding writer can only dream to achieve.
Truly enthralled,

Isobelle Carmody does not disappoint!
Where does Obernewtyn rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
I got into these books a few years ago when they were recommended to me. I came to the party late, but boy was I not disappointed!
I pretty much compare all other books to this series.
Now I am determined to listen to the entire series even though I've read it all several times.
What about Isobelle Carmody’s performance did you like?
Hearing Isobelle Carmody read the words as she wrote them is something else. She brought a whole new vision to this book for me and it's fantastic.
