Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

As someone who has enjoyed countless fantasy audiobooks, I was thoroughly impressed by The Gilded Crown. Kristin Atherton's narration is a standout, effortlessly conveying the depth and complexity of the characters. Her portrayal of Hellevir's evolving character arc and her shifting relationships with the ill-fated princess and Death himself is nothing short of captivating. While the pacing can feel a bit uneven at times, the overall story more than compensates, drawing listeners in with its dark, atmospheric world-building and unexpected twists. The Gilded Crown is a must-listen for fans of The Witch's Heart and The Foxglove King, and a promising debut from Marianne Gordon.
