Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Natalie Haynes’ voice is a perfect match for this dramatic and emotionally charged audiobook. Her storytelling prowess brings Medea to life with a fierce intensity that's both terrifying and compelling. The narrative pacing is impeccable—Haynes manages to keep listeners on the edge of their seats, even as she peels back layers of complexity around Medea’s character. However, some sections feel slightly disjointed, which might leave you pondering if they could have been more tightly integrated into the overall story. Despite this minor critique, 'No Friend to This House' is an absolute must-listen for fans of reimagined classics and powerful female voices in literature.
