Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Emily Tremaine’s narration is nothing short of exceptional in 'Specials.' Her ability to convey Tally’s inner turmoil and the urgency of her mission makes every moment tense and engaging. The transition from an ordinary uglie to a Special is vividly portrayed, thanks to Tremaine's nuanced performance. Pacing is brisk but never hurried, allowing ample time for character development without dragging. However, there are occasional lapses in consistency that slightly detract from the overall experience. Despite these minor issues, this audiobook remains a powerful and immersive journey into a dystopian world.
