The Umbris, an ancient demon that can only exist inside a cat, has fully possessed Sable. Now the fight is on. When Sable moves she grows: a swipe of her paw becomes a lion's paw, a leap sends her panther-sized crashing through the chamber, the demon bursting through and snapping back like something barely contained. Calla fights with her light rod. The witch fights with her glowing cane and something from deep in her bag. The rats hold off dozens of ghost ferrets. The series finale of Calla and the Rat City brings the biggest battle, the most surprising...

The group reaches the ancient chamber at the bottom of the old tunnels. The ghost ferrets are everywhere, but they aren't attacking. Something is keeping them back, and it isn't fear. Deep in the chamber they find Sable. The cat sits perfectly still with pitch black eyes where green ones used to be. When Calla raises her lamp, Sable's shadow on the wall is not a cat's shadow. It is enormous. Horned. Spreading its arms wide across the stone like it owns everything. And then Sable opens her mouth and speaks ... in a voice that has never belonged to...

Calla returns to the witch with difficult news: Sable is alive, but something is very wrong with her. The witch heals Calla's wounds — which had been turning black at the edges in a dangerous way — and then starts packing her bag. The witch is coming down into the tunnels herself. She also hands Calla a light rod: a dark wooden stick with a crystal tip that produces a blinding flash and stops shadow creatures cold. At midnight the full group gathers and descends. Whatever has been directing the ghost ferrets and keeping Sable underground is about to meet all of t...

Calla and a small team of rats venture into the ancient tunnels beneath Rat City to find the witch's missing cat. The ghost ferrets are waiting for them. The creatures attack from every direction at once, silent, fast, impossible to track in the dark. Calla fights back with a pocket knife and a lamp and it is not nearly enough. She gets badly scratched before the rats pull her out, the wounds turning black at the edges in a way that is not good. But just before she escapes, she spots something deep in the tunnel: Sable the cat...

Calla has a plan to steal the bell back from the witch. It is not a great plan. She sneaks into the witch's shack in Ashwood Forest, finds the bell on a shelf — and gets caught immediately. The witch is not angry exactly, but she is not the forgiving type either. Calla plays the one card she has: she knows where the witch's missing cat has been disappearing to. The witch goes very still. A deal is struck — find Sable the cat and bring her back, and the bell is yours. Now Calla has a much bigger problem than she...

Quinn's force blasts help, a triceratops they rescued along the way helps more, and Biscuit the pocket panda contributes exactly one sneeze at exactly the right moment. Getting the diamond out before th...

A row of gem-covered cave trolls is blocking the only path forward — and they want something shiny before they'll move. Avery and Quinn reach the Troll Crossing, where the enormous, gemstone-hoarding Grumstone and his crew demand payment for passage. The boys have tools, weapons, a pocket panda, and one thing Quinn really doesn't want to give up.

A funny and surprising underground fantasy audio story for kids ages 6-11, perf...

Two brothers unveil their greatest invention the same morning an army of robot gloops drops from hot air balloons onto Valleytown. Avery and Quinn have spent six months building the Drill House in a Power-Up garage — part home, part tank, part aircraft, with triceratops-style horns that can bore through solid rock. When gloop bots with reinforced metal plating pour into the valley and conventional weapons prove useless, their headmaster delivers grim news: the only thing powerful enough to stop the invasion is the Power Diamond, buried deep underground. Two brothers, one wild machine, and a very long way down. A...

Back in Treadway, the knight delivers the memory jar to Old Prentiss and watches the old merchant breathe in the pale smoke of the Doom Labyrinth — seeing it all for himself. Old Prentiss holds up his end of the deal: the Dragon Scale Shield is real, and it's marked on a very old map — deep in an abandoned fortress in the Farlands, far past roads and towns and everything familiar. The knight rolls up the map, pockets it, and heads east. Leeko falls into step beside him and immediately offers to retell the whole Doom Labyrinth story. The knight decl...

The knight and Leeko tumble out of the teleportation potion into the cheerful, sunlit village of Home — battered but alive. The mission is clear: find the Memory Merchant at the edge of the forest, get the Doom Labyrinth extracted from the knight's memory, and trade it to Old Prentiss. It should be the easy part. But when Leeko realizes the extraction means the knight will forget everything — the crushrooms, the flooding room, Marma, and how they first met — the moment that follows might be the best in the series. A funny and surprisingly touching fantasy audio story for kids ages 6...

In the deepest chamber they've found yet, the knight and Leeko come face-to-face with Marma — a tall masked warrior with twin daggers, a metal hand, and moves faster than anything the knight has ever fought. She's attempted to reach the mysterious door at the center of this room fourteen times, and she's not sharing it with a knight and a small wet gremlin. The fight that follows is the hardest of the knight's life — and when Marma's metal hand begins to glow and spark with something very alarming, he makes a split-second decision. This intense fantasy audio story for kids...

Deep in the Doom Labyrinth, the knight and Leeko walk into a room with no exit — and then the door behind them seals shut. Then water begins pouring through the walls. Fast. The knight's plan is to hit the stone door with his lightning mace until it opens. This plan does not work. Leeko jams on his little reading glasses, squints at a riddle carved near the ceiling, and figures out which of five levers will drain the room before they both drown. This puzzle-packed fantasy audio story for kids ages 6-11 is perfect for bedtime and car rides.

Armed with a brand-new lightning mace and a teleportation potion just in case, the knight steps through the entrance of the Doom Labyrinth — and straight into a room packed wall-to-wall with crushrooms. They look like regular mushrooms. They are not. They have teeth, and they leap, and they are extremely unhappy about being stepped on. The knight's mace gets a serious workout. Then, from a chandelier up above, a small gremlin named Leeko drops down and announces that they are now a team. This action-packed fantasy audio story for kids ages 6-11 mixes big battle energy with genuine comedy. Pe...
