Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

As someone who enjoys historical fiction, I was immediately drawn into 'The Corn Raid' by James Lincoln Collier. Charlie Thurston's narration is excellent, with a great range of voices and a natural pacing that keeps listeners engaged. Thurston's ability to convey the desperation and fear of the indentured servants is particularly impressive, and his portrayal of the harsh landscape adds to the overall atmosphere of the story. One minor critique is that some of the more intense scenes could have been amplified to increase the tension. However, this is a small flaw in an otherwise excellent audiobook. Overall, 'The Corn Raid' is a must-listen for fans of historical fiction and anyone interested in the early days of America.
