Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Tom Lawrence's narration is the star of the show here. He effortlessly switches between accents and character voices, making each member of the Seven Wonders distinct and memorable. The story itself is a slow burn, but it's worth the wait as Charles masterfully builds tension and suspense. The pacing is excellent, with just the right balance of character development, plot twists, and red herrings. However, I did find some of the historical details a bit heavy-handed at times, which briefly pulled me out of the story. Overall, though, Death in the Spires is a fantastic listen for fans of historical mysteries who enjoy a good puzzle and a richly drawn cast of characters.
