Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Nick Mondelli's narration in 'Took' is nothing short of spectacular. His ability to shift between characters with ease gives each voice its own distinct personality, making the story feel alive and immersive. The pacing is masterful; it builds slowly but steadily until you can hardly catch your breath. Hahn's writing delivers a narrative that’s both thrilling and deeply emotional. However, some parts might feel slightly rushed towards the end, which could have benefited from a bit more detail and development. Despite this minor critique, 'Took' is an incredibly compelling listen that will undoubtedly make you question what lies in the dark. A must-listen for fans of eerie tales and children's literature.
