Publisher's summary

It’s two months before Amelia’s big audition for the Mystwick School of Musicraft. If she gets in, she will learn to spin music into powerful magic - but her Gran has one last-ditch plan to persuade her out of it: sports camp.

A week of softball, sprinting, and sweaty socks isn't exactly Amelia’s idea of a good time - in fact, she's deeply, appallingly unathletic. By the end of day one, she’s puked her guts out in track, gotten a black eye in no-contact flag football, and firmly established herself as the Least Valuable Player at camp.

As head counselor, Coach Shawn is determined to make an athlete of Amelia, despite her complete inability to land a single basket in basketball and her high effectiveness at scoring in the wrong net in soccer. And all Amelia wants is some time to herself, so she can practice her flute for the Mystwick auditions.

But everyone’s plans are quickly derailed by a series of disasters that strike camp, putting everyone in mortal danger. It's clear that strange magic is at work, and as the only musician around, Amelia suddenly goes from benchwarmer to MVP. But can she discover the source of the malevolent magic - and how to stop it - before the deadly spell reaches its crescendo?

Music Students as Magic Practitioners

Good fun for dedicated mid-grade music students who love H.P.!
Although Camp Cacophony is chronologically the first in series, I do recommend listening to this after the first (Mystwick School) or even the 2nd book (Midnight Orchestra), as the concept of “musical magic” will be more comprehensible and enjoyable to the reader in this order.

Fun introduction to the Mystwick series

I grabbed this one as soon as I had finished The Mystwick School of Musicraft which is set about a month after the events in this instalment. Amelia Jones wants to be a musician, but her grandmother is still trying to convince her otherwise. As a result, Amelia finds herself at a sports camp for a week where no music magic is allowed. But then all the sports equipment start misbehaving and maybe Amelia who has shown no sporting talent is needed.

Listen to this as an introduction to The Mystwick School of Musicraft which has a more intricate plot. I cannot wait for the sequel to come.

Good little tie over

I am constantly telling everyone in my life about this audiobook series. The writing, the music, the direction, everything is so beautifully done.
If you love music, magic, and coming of age stories, you will LOVE this series.
This was a great short read to hold me over until the second book came out.

rReally great book

anybody needing a light and fun book should read this, especially if you like music and are more into music than sports. This book has plenty of both, and people on both sides of the spectrum of athletic ability. I needed this and can't wait for the next book in the series. So far, both books are fabulous!

Really love this universe

I fell in love with this universe upon listening to book 1. The fact that music can create magic is just fascinating to me! This was a cute, short prequel that I listened to all in one go. Next up is book 2!

A fun story of magic and music

It’s alight and enchanting tale of a young girl who loves music misplaced at a sports camp! But in in end, she shows how music can save the day. The book is light, fun and playful.

Unique and Unexpected Fun

I love how this story is different enough to be exciting, yet comfortingly familiar with Amelia Jones as our funny, down on her luck, unlikely hero!
