Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Suzanne Toren's soothing narration combined with Pete Bradbury's authoritative tone make ‘When Winter Came’ a compelling listen. The dual voices perfectly capture the story’s dual narratives—Dr. Sartor’s professional duties and his family life during lockdown. The pacing is deliberate, allowing for deep emotional moments without feeling slow. However, some chapters feel overly verbose about administrative tasks, which could have been streamlined. Overall, this audiobook delivers a poignant look at American resilience during one of the darkest periods of history.
