Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

As someone with a keen interest in the occult, I found Witches to be an absolute treasure trove of information. Illes' extensive research shines through in every chapter, offering a nuanced and respectful exploration of witchcraft that challenges stereotypes and misconceptions. Wiley's narration is a perfect match for the material, her voice captivating and expressive, making even the densest historical passages engaging. The pacing is excellent, with Illes' conversational style making the audiobook feel like a captivating lecture rather than a dry academic text. However, I did find some of the personal anecdotes a bit distracting at times, as they sometimes broke the flow of the historical narrative. Overall, though, Witches is a remarkable audiobook that I would highly recommend to anyone interested in the rich history and diversity of witchcraft.
