About This Audiobook

Gryphon's Eyrie is Andre Norton's masterclass in high fantasy, where the line between human and mythical blurs. Kerovan, a man with cloven hooves and amber eyes, is a captivating protagonist, his journey driven by an irresistible urge towards the mountains. Norton's world-building is intricate, her prose poetic, and her pacing measured, allowing listeners to fully immerse themselves in her richly textured realm. What sets this audiobook apart is the dual narration by John Lee and Adjoa Andoh, who bring a unique dynamic to the story, with Lee's deep, resonant voice contrasting beautifully with Andoh's expressive, emotive delivery.

Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

I was drawn into Gryphon's Eyrie from the very first chapter, thanks in no small part to the exceptional narration by John Lee and Adjoa Andoh. Lee's voice is perfect for the gritty, stoic Kerovan, while Andoh brings a warmth and vibrancy to the supporting characters that makes them truly shine. The story itself is a slow burn, with Norton taking her time to build her world and its lore, which can feel a bit slow at times, but the rich detail and intricate plot more than make up for it. The production is top-notch, with sound effects and music used sparingly but effectively to enhance the listening experience. My only critique is that the pacing could be a tad faster in places, but that's a minor quibble in an otherwise outstanding audiobook.
