Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

The narration by Heiða Reed and Smari Gunn is a standout feature. Their voices are so nuanced that each character comes alive, adding layers to the already complex narrative. The pacing is deliberate and suspenseful, which makes every pause and whisper more impactful. However, at times, the story’s reliance on traditional gothic tropes can feel predictable, and some of the plot twists may be too obvious for listeners familiar with the genre. Despite this, The Glass Woman remains a compelling listen that will hook you from start to finish.
