About this listen
Mortal Engines is now a major motion picture produced by Peter Jackson!
* "Reeve's [Mortal Engines] remains a landmark of visionary imagination." -- School Library Journal, starred review"A breathtaking work of imagination, Hester Shaw is a heroine for the ages. The moment we finished reading [Mortal Engines] we knew we wanted to make it into a movie." -- Producer Peter Jackson
Philip Reeve's epic city-eat-city adventure series continues with Mortal Engines Book 2: Predator's Gold.
With the great Traction City of London completely destroyed, Tom Natsworthy and Hester Shaw travel across the world, trading with other airships and adventuring on the exciting and exotic routes of the Bird Roads. When their little scrapyard aircraft is pursued by rocket-firing gunships, the ice city of Anchorage offers them sanctuary. But as Tom and Hester soon discover, it is no safe refuge. Devastated by plague in recent years and haunted by ghosts and madness, Anchorage is headed for the Dead Continent of North America. It's a perilous course, one that will take them directly into a firestorm of danger and conflict.Mortal Engines is now a major motion picture produced by Peter Jackson!

Nice follow up to book 1
Good read, Love how Hetty's character develops. Couple of good plot twists too. Couple of giggles at the names of towns or people.

A good listen
It's definitely not as good as the first installment. I enjoyed the book overall but there were moments where I was tempted to put it down.

a good yarn for all ages... not just the young
it's been a while since I read a "youth" book... I didn't read Harry Potter for example... but I have to say that there is a far dose of really creative imagination that could at a stretch become true. I live the rather dark idea of municipal darwinism. on the other hand even if it never comes to pass the story can just be a ripping yarn but at the same time it has its fair dose of symbolism and metaphor to keep this old man fed on all the level I like to be. The writer is a smart cookie and the reader is just brilliant... I dont know how he manages to remember all his different characterizations but he does and just keeps you in there. Now with anticipation moving on to book 3 !

Traction cities move on!
I read the book with my son a few years ago . Revisiting it through Audible has been great fun, and Barnaby Edwards’ narration is first rate. The characterisations are first rate, the plot draws you in, and I was completely emersed in the world of traction cities. Can’t wait to get started on ‘Infernal Devices’

A good sequel
This is a good sequel but I found it a little slow in places, narration is fantastic.

Exciting adventure
Even better and more exciting than the first one!! This only makes me more excited to listen to the 3rd and 4th books, although will be surprised if they beat this book.
