Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas

I was blown away by the unflinching honesty of Carrying. Virtual Voice's narration perfectly captures the intensity and chaos of the story, drawing listeners into the heart of the action. The pacing is relentless, mirroring the frenetic pace of war. One of the standout elements is the way Weesner captures the complex relationships between soldiers, revealing both the camaraderie and the tensions that arise in extreme circumstances. My only criticism is that some of the supporting characters feel a bit underdeveloped, and at times the narrative can be a bit disjointed. However, these are minor quibbles in an otherwise gripping and thought-provoking listen.
