Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Tavia Gilbert's narration is the star of this audiobook, bringing an authentic and unsettling energy to Kyra Agnew’s journey. Her performance captures Kyra's raw vulnerability as well as her growing frustration and determination, making it impossible not to root for her every step of the way. The narrative alternates between Kyra's memory fragments and present-day events with precision, which can be a bit disorienting at first but quickly becomes engaging. A few scenes feel slightly rushed, detracting from the otherwise immersive experience, but overall 'The Taking' is a compelling listen that will keep you hooked.
