Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Mhairi Morrison delivers a tour de force performance, her Scottish brogue lending an unexpected yet captivating cadence to Resolute's American journey. She expertly conveys the character's evolution from a naive girl to a hardened survivor, her voice trembling with fear and rage in equal measure. Turner's storytelling is both immersive and unflinching, but at times, the heavy focus on the mundane tasks of slavery can slow the pace. Despite this, the audiobook's strength lies in its uncompromising portrayal of history and Resolute's indomitable spirit. It's a must-listen for those seeking a raw, emotional exploration of America's past.
