Christian Coulson narrates a historical fantasy that turns the classic story of good versus evil on its head. Will is a 16-year-old dock boy in 1800s London who's hiding from the men who murdered his mother. He receives a dire warning of a great evil rising and must gather the Stewards to face the coming darkness. Coulson's patient narration captures the ear early on and never lets go through world-building and pulse-pounding action scenes alike. Characters are varied with engaging accents and inflections that are especially helpful when the story moves through different character perspectives. Coulson imbues events with a sense of gravitas that suits this sweeping tale of friendship, betrayal, romance, and action. J.M.M. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: NOVEMBER 2021]
