Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

‘Da Vinci’s Cat’ is not just an audiobook; it’s a journey through time. The dual narrative flows seamlessly between Federico and Bee, their voices brought to life by Sam Devereaux as Federico and Hope Newhouse as Bee. Their performances are nuanced yet engaging, especially in the more emotional scenes. The pacing is brisk but never rushed, allowing for moments of reflection that truly resonate with the story’s themes. Murdock masterfully interlaces historical detail with fantastical elements, making it easy to imagine the vibrant Italian setting and the serene New Jersey backdrop. One minor critique is the occasional abrupt transitions between time periods, which could be smoother. Despite this, ‘Da Vinci’s Cat’ remains a delightful listen that encourages deep thinking about friendship and legacy.
