About this audiobook
Harry Houdini. Penn and Teller. David Copperfield. Marcus Millian the Third.
Okay, so Marcus isn't a famous magician. He may not even be a great magician. But his great-grandfather, the once-legendary and long-retired Zachary the Stupendous, insists Marcus has true talent. And when Grandpa Zachary boasts that he and Marcus are working on an illusion that will shock, stun, and astonish, Marcus wishes he could make himself disappear.
The problem? Marcus also has stage fright-in spades. It's one thing to perform elaborate card tricks in front of his best friend, Kimberly, but it's an entirely different feat to perform in front of an audience.
Then Grandpa Zachary dies in his sleep.
To uphold his great-grandfather's honor, the show must go on. It would take a true sorcerer to pull off the trick Marcus has planned. But maybe he's the next best thing . . .

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Stranger Things Have Happenedby Jeff StrandNarration by Kyle McCarleyThis is a hilarious story with plenty of crazy characters, great banter, nutty ideas, goofy plot, yet it all comes together perfectly for an exciting read! I giggled and smiled throughout the story! What helped the story was the multiple voices of this talented narrator! The voices! Oh my! They were perfect! I giggled just listening to them! This is a story for middle grade or teens but I got a kick out of it too! Clean, funny, and a blast! Who wouldn't like a young magician, a pretty assistant, a would-be superhero, a shark, and a real life villain! Plus the many side characters that are really odd! Do yourself a favor, or someone else, pick up this Audible book!
