KATABASIS

by | Read by Morag Sims, Will Watt

Fantasy • 18.5 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2025

Morag Sims and Will Watt provide fittingly erudite performances of this layered audiobook. Cambridge is home to a top-tier academic Magick program. When an esteemed professor is killed, star graduate students Alice and Peter embark on a quest to rescue him from hell. How else to get that coveted recommendation? The underworld is soon revealed to be a university campus of its own. The satire on higher education is rich, yet the larger themes about one's purpose and ideas are gripping. Sims handles the majority of the work. Her voice captures studious yet vulnerable Alice, while Watt provides a foil in Peter, an academic star with secrets. Their potent combination is thought provoking and affecting. S.P.C. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: SEPTEMBER 2025]
