Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Paul Hilliar’s narration is nothing short of exceptional, delivering a narrative that feels as alive as the plants it describes. His pacing is impeccable, ensuring each detail clicks into place with remarkable clarity. The story, rooted in the lives of unsung heroes like William Roxburgh and Joseph Banks, is both enlightening and engaging. However, at times, the dense historical context might require listeners to stay fully focused. Despite this, ‘Planting the World’ remains a compelling listen, offering valuable insights into the foundational role botany plays in our world today.
