DAUGHTER OF REDWINTER The Redwinter Chronicles, Book 1

Narrator Samara MacLaren's Scottish accent sets the scene for this immersive high-fantasy audiobook. Raine saves an injured woman from the men pursuing her, an act leading to unforeseen consequences that completely uproots her life. Now she lives among privileged warrior magicians, keeping her ability to see ghosts of the dead a secret to avoid being killed herself. MacLaren's leisurely pace perfectly suits this rich, atmospheric audiobook. She wields a distinct voice and mannerism for each character to fully engross listeners with a unique world of complex magic. Her emotional connection enhances Raine's thoughts, in particular, as she considers how her ghost-sight can help solve a high-stakes mystery that leaves others stumped, potentially saving her entire nation.
