Summary

In this middle-grade fantasy, perfect for fans of Nevermoor and The School for Good and Evil series, humor, heart, and a symphony of magic take center stage.

Amelia Jones has always dreamed of attending the Mystwick School of Musicraft, where the world’s most promising musicians learn to create musical magic. Unfortunately, Amelia botches her audition and her dream comes crashing down—until the school agrees to give her a second chance. Amelia vows to do whatever it takes to make her dream come true.

However, between a teacher who really dislikes her and a roommate who wants to see her expelled, Amelia has her hands full. On top of that, supernatural powers are threatening Mystwick, and Amelia might be the only person who can save the school…but only if she can remain true to herself. The combination of Jessica Khoury’s storytelling mastery, the highly-nuanced performance by award-winning narrator Suzy Jackson, and the songs, musical interludes, and original compositions included in this audio (all performed by the NJSO Youth Orchestras) makes it a treat for all fans of the fantasy genre.

"Toe-tapping fantasy mixes music and mystery."
—Kirkus Review on Jessica Khoury's The Mystwick School of Musicraft

Critic reviews

“The concept of musicraft - producing magic by playing music - feels fresh and is undeniably appealing, and who is going to say no to a trip to another magical boarding school? The storytelling flows, pulling readers along, and some particularly grand, magical sequences (including a legitimately epic ending) make this stand-alone fantasy a memorable adventure…. It’s full of heart, clever plotting, and strong world building that young readers, musicians, and otherwise, will enjoy escaping to.” (Booklist)

“Khoury’s supernatural story is full of witty and comedic moments. The magical system is creatively designed and influenced by different tunes and kids learning to play instruments will get a kick out of seeing a fellow instrument-player struggle with auditions and use her talent to create literal magic. At the core, this is a feel-good story about believing in one’s ability, musical or otherwise.” (The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books)

“Beautiful imagery describes magic emerging from instruments. The book’s climax will send a chill down readers’ spines. For fans of Harry Potter who don’t want to stray too far from Hogwarts but are in need of new adventures.” (School Library Journal)
