About This Audiobook

ASPRIANT is a gripping fantasy adventure that picks up where 'The Ascendent Academy' left off, thrusting Nathan into a perilous journey across the sprawling world of Davrar. Olson's storytelling is as vivid as it is intricate, painting a rich tapestry of cultures, creatures, and magic that will immerse you from the get-go. Phil Thron's narration is a standout, bringing Nathan's determination and the world's wonder to life with crisp, dynamic delivery. What sets this audiobook apart is its blend of epic questing and political intrigue, all while grappling with the looming threat of the Endings. It's like 'The Name of the Wind' meets 'Game of Thrones' with a dash of 'The Way of Kings'.

Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

I was hooked from the start, thanks in no small part to Phil Thron's narration. He masterfully differentiates characters, from Nathan's resolute tone to the sinister undertones of the villainous Lord Blackwood. Olson's pacing is spot-on, balancing action-packed sequences with slower, more introspective moments that flesh out Nathan's character. The world-building is exceptional, with each region of Davrar feeling distinct and alive. My only critiques are minor: at times, the sheer volume of new terms and concepts can be overwhelming, and a few side characters feel underdeveloped. But these are minor quibbles in an otherwise outstanding audiobook that left me eager for the next installment.
