The Vagrant

Author: Newman, Peter
The Vagrant was one of my top five favorite fantasy books of 2015. Itâs compelling, itâs deftly written, and itâs something like youâve never read before. Those who appreciate a very well written, yet understated style of storytelling (think Hemingway), a darkly macabre world, and a narration that doesn't hold your hand at the beginning of the story will especially find this book something remarkable.The book has gone on to make waves garnering quite a lot of critical praise (I recently saw the author of The Prince of Thorns shout out the book after reading it). The sequel to The Vagrant is my most anticipated book this year.Now the book is good, but the audiobook narration nails the story, the mood, and the characters down perfect.The narrator Jot Davies brings a sense of mournful humanity to his voicing of the characters. As the characters struggle through the tragic world, Davies adds that human depth to the characters fully bringing to life the characters. Absolutely one of the best audiobooks of 2015 hands down, and a standout performance by a talented narrator whoâs voicing captures the all the character quirks you would imagine that a character would...no SHOULD, have.Listen to a sample of Jot Davies Narrating The Vagrant
