Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Dan John Miller's narration is a standout feature of this audiobook. His ability to switch between characters, from the idealistic Arrowsmith to the jaded Dr. Gottlieb, is nothing short of impressive. The pacing is steady, allowing Lewis' critique of the scientific community to unfold naturally. However, some of the story's secondary characters feel underdeveloped, which can make certain plot points less impactful than they might otherwise be. Despite this, Arrowsmith is a powerful listen that will leave you questioning the true nature of progress and idealism.
