      • content: This full-cast production of the first book in Bruce Coville's Magic Shop series coincides with the re-release of these books in new hardcover editions. As narrator, Coville's voice is infused with mystery and fun as he tells the story of Russell Crannaker, a shy boy plagued by the class bully until the day he stumbles on Mr. Elives's magic shop and buys the monster's ring, a ring that transforms him physically and, with both good and bad results, mentally. The cast of characters play their parts well, particularly main character Russell, as he transforms from fearful and nervous to more confident and sure, and his nemesis, Eddie, as he takes the opposite path. Fast paced and full of adventure, this production is sure to please. A.F. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine

        September 1, 2002

      • content: Get ready to enjoy the wonderful tale of Russell and the magic monster-making ring. Reticent Russell becomes a hairy, horned hobgoblin, who is more than capable of squashing the school bully and holding his own against the principal. Mark Hammer's softly sibilant reading invites the listener into Russell's dreamlike interior dialogue. With a twist of the ring, Russell is the monster, and Hammer's voice becomes strident and rough. The timbre of this masterful reading matches Russell's physical and psychological changes, becoming in turn, dreamy, frightened, terrible and triumphant. L.S.
