About this listen

When 13-year-old Lily's inventor father vanishes on a routine Zeppelin flight, Lily's determined to find out the truth behind his disappearance. But she's not the only one searching for her father; there are silver-eyed men in the shadows who will stop at nothing to find him.

With Robert, the local clockmaker's son, Lily travels to London, where they soon discover that she holds the key to the mystery...a mystery closer to Lily's heart than she could have ever imagined.

Should have been read with more gravitas. A good story, but very difficult to access because the narrator adopted the wrong tone. A good voice for getting her newborn off to sleep... Not for inspiring young readers.. A swing and a miss.

Terribly Miscast Narrator

this is a very relaxing audiobook

the narrator has a calming voice and helps you sleep. I would definitely recommend it for children aged 9 to 12.

THIS IS THE BEST AUDIOBOOK EVER

This is a great book and well worth the money!

Mr Bunzl has a great way with words and I looked forward to listening to it every day! Keep writing books like this and you'll go far

Great book!

This is a wonderful book which is fully deserving of 5 stars, however the style of narration is soporific at best, frustrating and unlistenable at worst. Different narrators can produce polarising responses, depending on the listener. For me, each new listen invoked the same jarring response. After 5 minutes, I became more adjusted to the slow paced, reading with strange emphasis. I hate to be so negative but I feel Rachael Beresford has been miscast for this book. I am sure she has talent and would be ideal for reading a relaxation/sleep story.

Great story, appalling narration

Although it took a while to get myself to fully listen to it, I thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to ages above 9 as there is a lot of blood and a bit of gore. The plotline was very good even if a bit confusing at times but thankfully the amazing ending tied it all together. Lastly, I think that the reader read very clearly which helped me still understand it even when it was sped up.

I loved the story and the exceptional plotline :)

So I have seen lost of bad reviews because of the readers voice it does take a bit of getting used to but for me this is a 10/10 story but that is my opinion and also I will tell u a quick story when a was about 10-11 I was going into school and I was walking with cog-heart on and when I got in I forgot to turn it off so when the class went silent all u heard was “something crawled across her ankle and she brushed it away with the tip of her shoe”🤣🤣🤣

I love this book “also in the review that i wrote it has a quick story in it

If you could sum up Cogheart in three words, what would they be?

Fascinating, original, exciting

What was one of the most memorable moments of Cogheart?

The adventure on the clock at Big Ben

What does Rachael Beresford bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

She brings alive all the emotions that the characters experience especially Lily's bravery, fear and the tension in the build up to the adventure.

Did you have an emotional reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It made me want to live in that world. I want a Malkin and a Mrs Rust.

Any additional comments?

I found the narration really easy to listen to, gentle and non invasive and it lets the story unfold to its thrilling climax.

Great original story

Great story - full of vim and vigour but the reader doesn’t match it! Wrong reader for this book. Sorry!

Reader not suited to story

Many reviews have criticised the narration. I listened to it between 1.10 and 1.30 and found this improved the narration. I actually found through voice quite nice to listen to but could see why it is not liked by some. I loved this story and will be listening to the next one now.

make it go a bit faster
