Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Diana Croft’s narration in ‘Once Upon a Page’ is nothing short of masterful. Her ability to shift between Penelope’s introspective moments and the Earl’s commanding presence adds layers of authenticity to this audiobook. The pacing is tight, with the narrative seamlessly weaving through time periods and storylines. I was particularly impressed by how well Croft conveyed the tension during pivotal scenes, making the suspense palpable. However, a few overwrought descriptions felt slightly extraneous. Despite this minor critique, the overall production quality is high, ensuring that listeners remain engaged throughout the nine-hour journey. For fans of historical mysteries and those who enjoy narratives where character development takes center stage, ‘Once Upon a Page’ is a must-listen.
