UPON A BURNING THRONE

This audiobook is an epic fantasy retelling of THE MAHABHARATA, an Indian classic about three heirs to a powerful throne whose fight to claim their inheritance could tear apart the very nation they wish to rule. Banker offers listeners exotic imagery that comes from viewing storytelling through the lens of a different culture. Vikas Adam narrates with infectious energy that always gives the story animation--that extra fun factor. His character voices are superb, and it's often easy to forget there's only one narrator. Every word is infused with personality and life. For fantasy listeners looking for cultural immersion and wonderfully diverse storytelling, this audiobook is a great pick.
