Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Lorelei King's narration brings 'The Cabinet of Wonders' to life with grace and authenticity. Her portrayal of Petra Kronos is warm and relatable, while the political intrigue elements are narrated with a compelling sense of mystery. The pacing is well-balanced, offering moments of levity amidst the more intense plot twists. A standout aspect is the magical world Rutkoski has created; the tin spider named Astrophil adds a charming detail to the story. However, some might find the political themes slightly heavy for younger listeners, which could make it a better fit for older children or adults. Overall, this audiobook stands out as an emotional journey that resonates deeply.
