The peculiar children are on a mission to save Miss Peregrine and the others who were stolen out of their time loop by evil wights and monstrous hollowgasts. Their journey takes them on an action-filled adventure filled with many perils. As new friends and old friends alike try to save Peculiardom from destruction, will the peculiar children be able to save their missing friends?

Narrator, Kirby Heyborne brings to life the unique characters of Miss Peregrine’s world. His vocal intonations masterfully keep pace with the various paces of the scenes in the book. His unique voices add depth to already fully developed characters and makes the reader step easily into their shoes. Readers who enjoy narrators like Jim Dale and/or love a book that keeps on the edge of their seat will enjoy listening to this book. This book would be a great family listen for people with a little bit older kids. It is recommended, however, that you read the first two books, since this book picks up where Hollow City left off.
