AMONG GHOSTS

Will Watt's warm, empathetic performance makes this stand-alone fantasy set in the world of SERAPHINA a must-listen. In a story in which past crimes and present troubles converge, Watt flawlessly moves from character to character, giving each one a distinct and instantly recognizable voice and keeping listeners spellbound as the action unfolds. Charl's unassuming town of St. Muckle's is besieged--first by disease-carrying beetles and then by a dragon--all in an effort to return Charl to his father, an abusive earl. Charl hides in an abandoned abbey that turns out to be populated by ghosts whom Charl can see and speak with. Watt expertly steers the story as the many threads come together and reveal themes of family, kindness, identity, belonging, and redemption.
