Liked this one as much as the island of adventure. Loves the characters especially Kiki the parrot! And Bill of course. Kiki's chatter always makes us laugh, "Fusty musty dusty! Pop goes the queen. God save the weasel!" :-). A treat to listen to these books again that I also enjoyed as a child.

My 8 yo loved this. Working our way through the series!

This is obviously an old book now but it is a classic and both my 11 year old and 5 year old loved the book so much they have already listened to it twice and I don’t think anyone can leave a better review for a children’s book then that.
Kiki the parrot is as always the true star of the Adventure books and my 5 year old loves copying his phrases.
As an adult it is also still engaging and easy to listen to.

An old classic, still loved today.

I loved this series as a child. This one seemed to stick in my mind most of all. The castle and grounds and the eagles are lovingly described by Enid, its a good setting for an adventure story. I enjoyed the chapters with Jack left on his up there. Some nice spooky moments.. who is pumping water in the night! The story then builds pace nicely and rattles along with plenty of entertaining moments.
The narrator at times was excellent, though some of the childrens voices a bit cringey at times
Overall, I enjoyed this book 👍

Nostalgic fun
