Editor's Review ★★★☆★

AudioBook Atlas

Stephen Hoye delivers a stellar performance in Star Island, his voice perfectly attuned to Cherry Pye’s brash and clever personality. The narrative zips along at breakneck speed, making it hard to put down (or rather, hard to pause). Hiaasen’s knack for skewering societal norms is on full display here, but there are moments where the humor feels a bit forced. Nonetheless, Hoye’s energy keeps the audiobook engaging until the very end. A smart choice if you’re looking for sharp social commentary wrapped in a fast-paced tale of celebrity and chaos.
