Publisher's summary

Join the children Tangle and Mossy as they embark on a journey of faith, spiritual maturity and sanctification. Richly imaginative and sparkling with mythic qualities, this story communicates the joy of entering into faith as a child, traveling through life with a loving companion, and longing for the heavenly country.

Poignant and beautifully written, The Golden Key will nourish both faith and imagination in the listener. C.S. Lewis delighted in the cleansing ability of reading George MacDonald, and The Golden Key certainly represents that quality.

Sigh---

Alas 'tis over. Not sure how much I spent but, i wouldn't waste m' time.

Just move along.

okay honestly - truthfully, the narrator is quite good. I did not like the story. The holes in the plot never resolve ---I just can't believe--- THIS GUY inspired C.S. Lewis!

Bleck!!!!!!! With a capital ECK!!!!!

The Golden Key

I loved this story. It was beautifully written and read. The word pictures were so vivid. I could see it while listening. Thank you, George MacDonald, for your creative mind!

Not my cup of tea

There’s nothing wrong with this story, but it’s just not something I resound with. I’m not much of a fairytale person but I thought I’d give it a try. Meh for me, but if you like fairytales go for it.
