Narrator Kim Mai Guest is an expert at bringing a story's characters to life with distinct, memorable voices. Here, Guest depicts Chee's vibrant and magical world, which envelops listeners in the sights and sounds of warring nations. The heroine, Sefia, is given a young, wispy voice that highlights both her vulnerability and growing strength. In contrast, Archer's voice is angry and reserved, with Guest adding more confidence to the boy's tone as his character develops. Guest offers a weak and bitter voice for Tanin, whose only goal is to locate Sefia and The Book. With her impeccable narration, Guest draws listeners into Sefia and Archer's daring adventure.
