Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

January LaVoy’s narration is nothing short of enchanting in 'The Basque Dragon.' His voice weaves a spell from the very beginning, creating a vivid tapestry that transports listeners to the Basque Country. Adam Gidwitz, known for his engaging storytelling, brings another layer of depth through his own narration, offering a unique perspective that enhances the narrative. The pacing is just right—neither too slow nor rushed—allowing ample time for the complex characters and settings to unfold. However, some listeners might find the Basque language elements a bit challenging at first; a glossary would have been helpful. Overall, this audiobook is a must-listen for fans of imaginative storytelling combined with cultural richness.
