Ordered to hold an abandoned army post, John Dunbar found himself alone, beyond the edge of civilization. Thievery and survival soon forced him into the Indian camp, where he began a dangerous adventure that changed his life forever. Set in 1863, the novel follows Lieutenant John Dunbar on a magical journey from the ravages of the Civil War to the far reaches of the imperiled American frontier, a frontier he naively wants to see "before it is gone".

Grave-robbing. What kind of monster would do such a thing? It's true that Leonardo da Vinci did it, Shakespeare wrote about it, and the resurrection men of 19th-century Scotland practically made it an art. But none of this matters to Joey Crouch, a 16-year-old straight-A student living in Chicago with his single mom. For the most part, Joey's life is about playing the trumpet and avoiding the daily humiliations of high school. Everything changes when Joey's mother dies in a tragic accident and he is sent to rural Iowa to live with the father he has never known....

It's just a small story really, about, among other things, a girl, some words, an accordionist, some fanatical Germans, a Jewish fist-fighter, and quite a lot of thievery. Set during World War II in Germany, Markus Zusak's groundbreaking new novel is the story of Liesel Meminger, a foster girl living outside of Munich. Liesel scratches out a meager existence for herself by stealing when she encounters something she can't resist: books.

Publisher's Summary
*Winner of the 2018 Academy Awards for Best Picture and Best Director*
Now a major motion picture from Fox Searchlight
Visionary storyteller Guillermo del Toro and celebrated author Daniel Kraus combine their estimable talent in this haunting, heartbreaking audiobook.
The Shape of Water is set in Cold War-era Baltimore at the Occam Aerospace Research Center, which has recently received its most sensitive asset ever: an amphibious man captured in the Amazon. What unfolds is a stirring romance between the asset and one of the janitors on staff, a mute woman who uses sign language to communicate with the creature.
Developed from the ground up as a bold two-tiered release - one story interpreted by two artists in the independent mediums of literature and film - The Shape of Water weaves together fantasy, horror, and romance to create a tale that is equally gripping on the big screen and as an audio performance.
Prepare for an experience unlike anything you've ever heard or seen.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio.
Critic Reviews

Superb
As a fan of the film I was eager to listen to the novel version of the story, to gain more insight into the characters and see how closely a the 13 hour long read of the book compared to the masterpiece of the 2 hour film. The book exceeded my already extremely high expectations.
First, the performance by Jenna Lamia is, itself, a masterpiece. Her voice, characterizations and inflections were a perfect fit for the material. She brought the words to life in a meaningful way and made the entire listen a pleasure.
Without giving any spoilers, there is a really wonderful sub plot that was not in the film involving Lanie. This really added a lot to the story and was an excellent feature. The character studies allowed by the novel add a great deal of depth to all. There were also details to the film that the novel explains, which was a great feature. There are a few differences in the story as compared to the film, and these differences are compelling, almost like alternative takes.
Several scenes, including the finale, with the internal dialogue, is pure poetry.
This is a fantastic and moving book, perfectly performed. It's statements on the human condition, on love, empathy, connection, life and risk, as well as subtle (and needed) social commentary are flawless. This book is a treasure all on it's own, but also makes an excellent companion to the beautiful film.
Perfect.

There was so much violence and ugliness I had to stop listening to it. The writing is ok, but not memorable, and the story is fun, but I could not take the torture and killing. I listened about 3/4 through, and quit.

I am afraid to watch the movie
I still have two hours of the book left. It is so beautifully written. I don't know how a movie could hold up to the book and I am afraid to be disappointed even with the accolades the movie has already received. There are so many stories happening at once in the book I don't know how a movie would have even captured them all so I am sure so much would have been left out; what a shame. The book, so far, is phenomenal and I don't want it to end. The narrator is a magician. I am afraid I will be disappointed and letdown by the movie but I will, of course, watch it anyway.

Has a good ending!!!
Such a good story. It does have some gross parts, but over all it's so wonderful. It's not just about the two main characters, but also the other people and their story. I don't like sad ending books or movies, but every time I tried to ask people on line, they would not tell me. SO if there is someone else like me out there don't be afraid. You won't be depressed for days after you listen to this.

Starts Out Dry, But...
...Finds its flow into well-written prose. First three and a half hours were drawn out and unnecessary, the rest, an interesting and pleasant listen. It's fine to establish characters, but for about 25% of the book, too much time. The characters were, however, intertwined nicely, and the intimacy between the two main protagonists was a beautiful display of endearment transforming into blossoming sensuality.

This book was terrible.
I could hear my brain cells dying by the end. This was some sappy Aquaman fan fiction with the dumbest antagonist. The first half of the book is decent but midway dissolves into nonsense. Like listening to weird deaf jam poetry about some god metaphor for 13 hours.

Can't get into this book
I got this book as it had rave reviews but I cannot get into it. The narration is certainly not the worst but the soft, breathy restraint causes the book to have the feel of an american au-pair reading a bedtime story.
As I mostly listen to audio books when driving but this narration demands the listener pay far more attention than is safe, unlike books narrated by professional voice actors.
The plot seems good but as I never seem to be able to stay focused on it for more than 10 minutes at a time, I can't comment.

Not what I thought
I loved the story line to this book but found it very hard to follow as an audio. I had to start 2x to follow how the book was being read from different characters because it wasn’t clear. The book itself is well written but being an audio you really have to listen because it’s not a book that gets you hooked. I think it’s very rare to say but in this case I believe the movie would be better than the book

I credible read.
This story is engaging and will stay with me for some time. The narrator was very good at navagating her way through varied accents and moods.

Disappointed
I purchased this audio on the recommendation of friends who saw the movie who loved it. I tried twice to get into this story but it was all over the place with no central thread. I did persevere but i just couldn’t get into it even after 6 chapters.

Gorgeously tragic
I loved this story - so poignant and winsome were the characters. You really find yourself cheering for the Elisa and the creature. Beautifully narrated and emotionally charged performance by Jenna - loved it more than the movie.

I loved the movie, but the book had great differences and told so much more of the story!

Best narration of any audiobook I’ve heard yet
I absolutely loved the story, and has quickly become one of my favourites. But I want to commend Jenna the narrator, her performance was remarkable.
