A young woman has put her soul at risk by bargaining with a monster. AudioFile’s Emily Connelly tells host Jo Reed what impressed her about narrator Angela Dawe’s performance in this audiobook full of myth and magic. Enna has struck a deal with a creature, Maekallus, and when he fails in his mission and finds himself trapped in the human realm, their lives become even more intertwined. Dawe is able to draw listeners deep into a complex world and enlivens each character with unique voices, particularly the magical non-human creatures who lurk in the wildwood. She makes this listening experience as magical as the story itself.
