Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Maggie Siff's performance is nothing short of extraordinary. Her nuanced portrayal of Gwendy, a character who navigates life's complexities with remarkable clarity, adds an extra layer of realism to the story. The pacing is impeccable—slowing down during tense moments and speeding up in anticipation of twists. Yet, there are moments where the production seems too polished, slightly detracting from the raw emotion that King aims for. Overall, this audiobook is a must-listen for anyone who loves a well-crafted narrative intertwined with a bit of spine-tingling horror.
