Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Sean Pratt’s performance is nothing short of mesmerizing in 'Koresh.' His ability to modulate tone and inflection for each character—especially Koresh himself—is a testament to his skill. The narrative pace mirrors the escalating tension in Waco, keeping listeners on edge from beginning to end. Talty's vivid descriptions bring the events to life with stark detail, but occasionally, the research overpowers the storytelling. Still, this audiobook remains an essential listen for those intrigued by true crime and religious extremism. It’s a gripping journey into the heart of darkness.
