Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Moira Quirk's performance is a highlight, perfectly capturing Gideon's gruff exterior while revealing her vulnerability and humor. The story's political intrigue and swordplay sequences are expertly paced, keeping listeners on edge. However, some might find the necromancer lore overly dense at times, requiring attentive listening to fully appreciate its complexities. A must-listen for fans of Tamsyn Muir’s unique worldbuilding and bold narrative choices.
