Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

Tim Pigott-Smith's performance in Vagabond is nothing short of superb, his deep, resonant voice perfectly embodying Thomas of Marlton's journey. The story itself is a compelling blend of personal vendetta and mythical quest, with Cornwell’s vivid descriptions bringing medieval England to life. However, the pacing can sometimes feel slightly uneven, slowing down during certain historical expositions that could have been condensed for better flow. Despite this minor critique, Vagabond remains a must-listen for fans of sweeping adventure tales set in the Middle Ages.
