Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

I was thoroughly enthralled by 'Us Dark Few', and I'm still reeling from the experience. Raquel Beattie's narration is superb, bringing Khalani's emotional journey to life with a nuance and sensitivity that's hard to find in many audiobooks. Beattie's voice is like a warm hug, and her performance is one of the standout elements of the production. One of the things that truly sets 'Us Dark Few' apart, though, is Patton's world-building. The Domed City of Genesis is a meticulously crafted world that feels lived-in and authentic, with its own unique culture, politics, and mythology. If I have one critique, it's that the pacing can feel a bit uneven at times, particularly in the early stages of the story. Some scenes feel rushed, while others drag on a bit too long. However, this is a minor quibble in an otherwise excellent audiobook. Overall, I would highly recommend 'Us Dark Few' to fans of science fiction, fantasy, and romance. It's a gripping, addictive listen that will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish.
