Henry has discovered that the hundred cupboard doors hidden behind his bedroom wall are actually portals to other worlds. Now he must go through the cupboards to find the truth about where he’s from and who his real parents are. Along the way, Henry is suddenly struck with a gift of magic—a magic that burns so brightly it attracts unwanted attention. As he discovers the strength of his new powers, he is chased by wizards and faeren and ultimately forced into battle with Nimiane, the evil witch-queen. And this time, the witch is not alone. . . .

The sequel to the 100 CUPBOARDS continues the story of Henry and his cousin, Henrietta. In the first tale, they discovered that the cupboards in Henrietta's Kansas home lead to other worlds. Now they continue to slip in and out of odd realities, always avoiding the evil witch of Endor. This follow-up focuses on Henry's determination to find his birth parents. His convoluted explorations now involve every member of his cousin's family. Russell Horton's gripping narration keeps listeners engaged with what is sometimes a meandering, nonsensical adventure. Horton's reading makes it worth hearing. It is studded with spectacular performances, like Horton's chilling portrayal of the evil wizard Darius. Horton's performance may hook new fans, all of whom will hope that he returns to narrate the third book of this trilogy. S.W. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
