SUPERMAGDA

In Supermagda by Adrian Siska, Magda is a girl superhero in the making. In a world where island life combines with advanced technologies, she sets out for adventure - this time to unveil the Tomb Of Thea. When powers awaken within her and a new threat rises, she is made to fight on behalf of her friends and her world with the powers she must learn to control.

I haven't read such a fresh take on Middle Grade fiction in so, so long. I usually stick with the same few middle grade authors, but this novel inspired me to expand my reading pallet. Supermagda is a unique twist on the adventure fantasy trope. It's original, vibrant, and extraordinary. It's perfect for readers who are new to the fantasy genre and especially those of the younger fantasy audience. I loved following Magda on her adventures. It reminded me of the time I was young.

I especially liked the ragtag team that banded together to save the world. It can be hard to make talking animals active characters in any sort of book, so I applaud Siska for being able to portray such a unique cast of characters in such a fun way. This book gave me the vibe of anime-styled action sequences and music videos I used to watch as a child. Although it didn't contain a ton of prose, it made up for it with its unique and energetic voice, as well as the fluid scenes of action and adventure. Well done!

This children's book follows Magda, her friend Caleb, and westie dog Dinky as they journey to find the Lost Tomb of Thea. But the adventure only starts from there as they continue to unlock mysteries and overcome challenges in their quest to investigate GreenCorp, a company with questionable business practices. This story has fun characters, super powers, futuristic technology, and is filled with action.

I downloaded this audiobook looking for a book to get my niece for her birthday. It might be a level above what she is reading now but if it were transformed into a graphic novel, it would totally be up her alley. This is the first children's audiobook that I have listened to so I don't have a lot to compare it to but I think the narrator did a good job capturing the world and the characters.

Thank you to NetGalley for the free audiobook. Overall, the story was very imaginable and fun. I would definitely recommend for kids who love superheroes and adventure!

SUPERMAGDA by Adrian Siska is a fascinating adventure that will captivate young readers who crave a mix of fantasy, science fiction, and action, making it a perfect fit for middle-grade enthusiasts who love exciting stories of self-discovery, friendship, and battling evil forces.

Thank you Netgalley for making this available on your website as a Listen Now book! I enjoyed listening to this book. This was so much fun. I liked everything about this book but my favorite part about this book was the fact that it has talking animals. This book is perfect for kids to read.
