Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Samuel Roukin’s performance is nothing short of exceptional; his portrayal of Elizabeth Whittle and William Grant is so vivid that I half-expected them to leap off the audio. The narrative zips along with a perfect balance of tension and wonder, making the listener feel like they’ve stumbled into a haunted séance hall. Howard’s writing excels at building suspense, layering in historical detail with supernatural horror, but there are moments where the pacing falters slightly as he delves deeper into academic debates about spiritism. Despite this minor critique, The Shadow on the Glass is an engrossing and atmospheric ride that will leave you questioning your sanity after just one listen.
