Editor's Review ★★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Mel Foster and Laural Merlington's performances are nothing short of masterful, imbuing 'Carrion Comfort' with layers of terror and humanity. The story is a relentless mix of historical horror and mythological suspense that keeps you on edge from the start to the spine-chilling finish. Simmons' vivid descriptions of Chelmno and the ancient evil at play are matched by the narrators’ impeccable pacing, which never lets up even during quieter moments. However, some might find the narrative's pace a bit too relentless, leaving little room for breath between heart-pounding scenes. Despite this minor quibble, 'Carrion Comfort' is an unmissable audiobook for fans of dark fantasy and those who enjoy being thoroughly unsettled.
